SSR Pro & Christine
In today's increasingly disconnected world, authenticity has become a priority for personal and professional success at any level.
​
As a seasoned consultant, creative curator, coach and connecter with extensive cross-disciplinary and multicultural experience, Christine Leuthold brings her experience, her relationships and her relationship-based approach to her clients to build more authentic engagement and community.
Her career in luxury branding, greater good initiatives, messaging and programming has resulted in a unique approach for enriching brand cultures in ways that are personally and professionally rewarding for all involved.
With a professional signature that is best described as soft spoken wisdom, Christine is a proven innovator in brand integration, impact marketing, corporate social responsibility and experience design. Since 2019 she has been blending this prior experience with her background in film, television and other content platforms to create, produce and facilitate customized online and in-person programming that builds engagement and community.
Christine brings decades of experience working with senior leadership and their teams, identifying ways to connect seemingly disparate elements across disciplines and sectors. Working with corporations, non-profits and startups, her unique vision and approach to problem-solving focuses on identifying and creating productive collaboration across departments and functions to achieve brand-aligned, cohesive growth.
Fluent in multiple “languages”, including brand strategy, program development, stakeholder engagement, community building, film and media, DEI, sustainability and experience design, Christine believes that the most critical language of all ls authentic interaction. That means listening as well as speaking.
​
With a working style that is both transparent and collaborative, she applies her expertise in her work with organizations, communities and individuals. Deliverables are workable solutions that can be built upon, while always protecting and reinforcing the brand.
​
Having worked with the corporate, non-profit, private and start-up sectors, Christine brings three highly-tuned ingredients to her clients:
-
a relationship-based approach for business development
-
a way of simplifying complex ideas
-
the ability to identify connections between disparate elements for what she calls, the ripple
This winning combination is what sets her apart.
