About Cat Scratch Consulting

Three disciplines, one point of view: technology change works when it's designed around people.

An unusual blend — on purpose.

Cat Scratch Consulting was founded on a simple observation: the organizations struggling most with AI adoption aren't struggling with the technology. They're struggling with the people side — the trust questions, the role confusion, the quiet fear of being replaced — and most consultants aren't trained to see it.

Our founder's background sits at a rare intersection of Industrial-Organizational Psychology, law, and project management. That blend means we can read a firm's confidentiality obligations and its staff's anxiety in the same meeting — and design a rollout plan that respects both.

For law firms in particular, this matters. We speak the language of compliance, professional responsibility, and client confidentiality, so recommendations land as credible rather than naive. And for small businesses, it means advice scaled to real teams and real budgets — not enterprise playbooks shrunk to fit.

What each discipline brings

Every engagement draws on all three — that's the whole point.

  • Industrial-Organizational Psychology The science of people at work: how teams respond to change, what drives trust and burnout, and how to measure it instead of guessing. This is the foundation of our assessments and workshop design.
  • Law Hands-on experience in legal environments means we understand billable pressure, confidentiality constraints, and why "just try the new tool" doesn't fly with partners or compliance-minded staff.
  • Project Management Insight is only useful if it ships. We turn findings into sequenced, realistic plans with clear owners and milestones — so recommendations become results, not another PDF on a shelf.
