Alex Durand joins Abundance Labs as the founder of Frable, a boutique coaching & consulting firm that helps leadership teams get out of their own way. His clients are the best at what they do. They love striving to be great and aren’t afraid of staying on the edge. Like all great leaders and teams, they recognize the value of having a coach and advisor by their side to navigate the challenges of today’s business landscape.

Today’s teams are treading water. Between external and internal performance pressures, employee burnout, and relentless change, it is easy for teamship to remain low on leaders’ list of priorities. Today, however, teamship skills like shared candor, shared accountability, and shared execution are a high-performance imperative: for yourself, for the teams you lead, for your organization.

Alex believes the most effective team coaching happens when the coach can observe and engage with the team in real time, in their day-to-day environment, much like how a professional sports coach supports the performance of a professional sports team. Done in this way, executive team coaching allows a leadership team to experience continuous, intentional, and measurable improvement over time, making it a much more worthwhile investment in the future performance of the organization at large. Alex is a Columbia University credentialed Professional Executive Coach. He holds a Bachelor of Accountancy from George Washington University and received his MFA in Writing from Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD).

Kristin Kober is an executive and leadership coach with more than 25 years of experience working with leaders inside complex, high-performing organizations. Her clients are often leaders who identify more as entrepreneurs, experts, or high performers. Individuals whose success has placed them in positions of influence they didn’t necessarily seek but now must fully inhabit. They are highly capable and committed, seeking support as they navigate the internal shift required to lead people with clarity, confidence, and intention. Through coaching, Kristin helps leaders slow down, examine long-standing patterns, and make more intentional choices about how they lead, communicate, and relate to others.

She also works closely with entrepreneurs and business owners who are exceptional at the work that built their organizations, but who need support navigating the demands of leadership as their businesses grow. Kristin helps founders move from expert and builder to intentional leader with a focus on strengthening presence, accountability, and the human systems that allow people and organizations to thrive over time.

Kristin’s coaching is grounded in extensive organizational experience within the financial services industry. Over the course of her career, she has held senior roles in leadership development, training, recruitment, practice management consulting, product management, and business management, including direct experience supporting fast growing teams at institutions such as Merrill and Morgan Stanley. This background allows her to meet leaders with both practical insight and empathy, bridging real world complexity with reflective, transformative coaching.

She holds a bachelor’s degree in psychology from McDaniel College and a Skilled Facilitator Certification from Johns Hopkins University. She integrates Enneagram informed insight thoughtfully and selectively to support self-awareness identify growth edges at a pace that feels aligned with each client.

She serves on the Executive Councils of the United Way of Central Maryland and McDaniel College’s Women’s Leadership Network, reflecting her commitment to leadership development both within organizations and the broader community.

Dr. Bukky Kolawole (she/her) is a leadership consultant, executive coach, psychologist, and respected facilitator who helps leaders and teams develop the emotional and relational intelligence that drives performance. With over 15 years of experience at the intersection of psychology, leadership, and organizational culture, Dr Bukky is sought out when the stakes are high, tensions are palpable, and teams need to move through blocks to have the conversations that matter most.

Her career has spanned mission-driven nonprofits, government agencies, and large institutions—including healthcare systems like Mount Sinai, academic settings like NYU, public agencies such as the NYC Department of Education, and financial organizations like CIBC. Whether coaching executives, facilitating leadership development programs, or navigating complex team dynamics, Dr Bukky’s approach remains the same: human first. She creates spaces where leaders are invited to pause, reflect, and transform how they relate, lead, and perform—building not just skills, but the internal capacity required for high performance, including the ability to tolerate and regulate emotional arousal and connect with intention and presence.

Grounded in the science of behavior change and the art of relationship, Bukky draws on a rich toolkit that includes Emotionally Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and the Leadership Circle Profile, for which she is a certified practitioner. Clients turn to her when relationships are strained, dynamics are complex, and the path forward demands more than technical expertise—it requires emotional fluency and relational courage.

Dr. Bukky holds a doctoral degree (PsyD) in clinical psychology and lives in New Jersey with her wife and their two joyfully chaotic young children.
