Meet Kim Bohr, the President and CEO of SparkEffect. Kim’s mission is to make business better from the inside out.

Kim has spent her career working at the intersection of people, organizations, and performance. She leads and scales SparkEffect’s team and services, partnering with leaders and companies to solve the problems that matter most: building trust, accelerating transformation, and delivering measurable outcomes for Fortune 1000 companies, startups, and mission-driven organizations alike.

Before joining SparkEffect, Kim founded The Innovare Group, a boutique strategic consultancy known for diagnosing and repairing organizational and leadership disconnects. She also served as Executive Vice President of Operations at Fierce, Inc., a global leadership firm, where she was instrumental in guiding the company through significant growth stages.

Kim is an author and sought-after keynote speaker whose talks draw directly from SparkEffect’s proprietary research on organizational trust, including the firm’s landmark Trust in Turbulence study. She hosts SparkEffect’s podcast Courage to Advance, and is a frequent guest on podcasts across the HR, leadership, and business space.

Kim holds a BS in Business Administration from UC Riverside and an International MBA from the University of Denver.

She brings board-level perspective from national nonprofit service, including Susan G. Komen, and currently serves as a strategic advisor to the CEO and Board of ZGiRLS.

Kim lives in Seattle with her family. She enjoys travel adventures, Italian food, and golf. She may also be found cheering on the Seattle Seahawks, Mariners, Storm, and Kraken.
