About us
Internationally acclaimed innovation expert Val Wright was named as one of the top 50 resources for Chief Operating Officers by ClickSoftware. She is one of only 64 experts inducted into the Million Dollar Consultant® Hall of Fame. The global clients who have requested her help include Starbucks, LinkedIn, Microsoft, Financial Times, and DreamWorks Animation. Val’s corporate experience includes tenures during dramatic growth periods at Amazon, BMW, Microsoft, Harrods, Marconi, and Sema Group. Val participated on the small team that created the fastest-selling device of all time, Kinect for Xbox, which won a Guinness Book of World Record, selling over 20 million devices.

Her unique approach, which she has trademarked as Thoughtfully Ruthless®, has produced typical client results of market domination in extraordinarily short time frames along with compassionate truth telling, fearlessness, and extensive creative, technical, and leadership gains.

“I read her first book called Thoughtfully Ruthless which I absolutely loved and it really helped me become way more efficient at work and it’s probably helped me get my recent promotion which I’m hoping Words That Work will help me with. My communication at work can definitely be improved and I think Val’s wise words are going to help with that this year.” - Emma Duggan, Bookmarked Beers #wordsthatwork #bookreview
