Flipping the script: Taking resource management from background player to business enabler

In this episode of The Resource Revolution, we dive deep into the perception and true power of resource management with Kate Brooke, Firmwide Resource Management Leader at Moss Adams.

Kate unpacks why resource management is “strategy wrapped in admin’s clothing”—in other words, a critical business function often hidden beneath tactical work—and how to shift the role from background player to business enabler.

Drawing on her extensive experience, Kate shares practical wisdom like: “Listen to the words behind the words,” and explains why questions like “What more could I do for you?” can open doors to greater influence. It’s not just about giving people what they ask for - it’s about giving them what they really need.

From scaling processes to surviving tech rollouts, she brings sharp insight into how resource management can drive a virtuous cycle of performance, people experience, and business stability.

Get ready to paint a new picture of what’s possible.
