About
Our Company
Quilted provides coaching, consulting and community for small and midsize business executives who are tired of the status quo and want to find their true work style.
Quilted exists to partner with leaders who know working smarter means more joy, more impact, and more good in the world.
In the same way a quilt combines form and function, we work with you to gather the pieces that make up your individual stories and find a pattern that sings.
Sound good? Let’s talk.
Services
Executive Coaching
We work with executives to find their true leadership style and amplify their impact.
Holding empathy and our innate potential for growth as our guiding tenets, we work with our clients 1-on-1 in a confidential process to define clear objectives and then drive action towards those outcomes over a six- or twelve-month period.
We integrate 360 assessments, stakeholder interviews and feedback, and self-reflection to deepen awareness and expand each client’s ability to take action.
Coaching creates room to untangle complex challenges, make sense of recurring patterns, and develop new approaches.
Consulting
We partner with businesses to develop strategic actions in response to their most complex challenges.
Critically, we consider how employees and teams will feel as strategies unfold, and design our plans while holding employee experience at the core.
Understanding that change is the only constant, we work with our clients to navigate their business’ evolving needs and improve how their business functions day to day.
Together we identify core challenges, design strategies to address them, and then partner together to bring the plan to life.
Services we offer include:
- Fractional Chief of Staff
- Strategic planning
- Employee engagement
- Company culture audits and strategies
- Organizational Change Management
- Team effectiveness strategies
- Leadership retreat design and facilitation

About Us.
Our Principles
People first. We believe that good business outcomes are the logical effect of engaged, supported, and effective teams.
Transparency. We support radical transparency – the good, the bad and the ugly – to drive equity across the board.
Life experience is a strength. Pivots, reinvention, learning, adapting, growing. The road forward is never straight, but the learnings that come with the detours make us smarter, faster and better.
Flow is the goal. We understand that the grind can happen, but we know that true power and success lies in finding your flow, and seeking out ways to make work work for you.
Embrace the mess. We love the messy, the complicated, the incomplete. We partner with you to embrace it all–every tiny piece–and make sense of it in service of finding ways forward that fit your unique needs and experiences.
Founding Quilter / CEO
Ami Watkin
Hi – I’m Ami!
I am an explorer, a critical thinker, and a connector. Throughout my career, I have approached my work with an eye to the human side of business – what makes people tick, how they collaborate, and how they can flourish.
As a leader, coach, and professional partner, I bring out the best in professionals across industries. I’m known for my ability to build relationships and engender trust by understanding my clients and their challenges deeply, and then holding room for the possibility of new ways of doing and being.
I am at my best when I am helping companies and professionals navigate the complex challenges of growth and evolution, and I bring my years of diverse experience to each project.
As a consultant, I collaborated with a publicly-traded beauty company on the evolution of their global tech function, ensuring that this client could confidently move forward with ambitious goals.
As a member of the executive team in a tech startup, I built the people function from the ground up, focusing on talent development and aligning our team with our business strategy.
My best days involve outdoor walks, cooking delicious meals, snuggles with my daughter, putting something positive into the world via work, good conversation or community connection, and a solid nap with the windows open.
My favorite places are the bayside beaches of Cape Cod, the tree-lined streets of Mexico City, the brownstone blocks of South Brooklyn and the green hills of the Hudson Valley or Northern Virginia.
I’m happiest with my people: my husband, our daughter, my family, my friends.
