Karen Hairston is a Business Systems & Profitability Consultant, Cash Flow Advisor, and author of Stop Growing Broke, Start Growing Profits. She helps smart, overwhelmed CEOs stop growing broke. With over two decades of experience in corporate, government, and education settings, Karen has seen the same pattern repeat across organizations of every size: growth is exciting, but without the right systems, it exposes cracks that put profits, people, and sanity at risk. Her grounded, holistic approach combines operational strategy, financial clarity, and people-centered leadership to help leaders scale with more profit and less chaos—without falling for yet another tech solution in disguise. She developed three core frameworks to make scaling practical and sustainable: The 5 Rules to Stop Growing Broke, the 5D Systematization Process, and the AIM Loop. Karen learned the power of systems early at a fast-moving startup with no documented processes. She became “the systems person,” creating simple, repeatable ways to manage projects, improve quality, and reduce stress—work that shaped her passion for helping other leaders build companies with the structural integrity to last. Today, through her consulting, speaking, and writing, Karen helps leaders uncover hidden cash, streamline operations, and build businesses that hold up under growth and still function when they step away. (Yes, really.)
