Molly Sutherland – Founder, Sutherland and Associates
For more than 30 years, Molly Sutherland built a remarkable legacy helping businesses across the United States, Europe, and Asia create extraordinary results. As Founder of Sutherland & Associates, she guided more than 250 organizations through strategic planning, leadership development, marketing, and organizational transformation — earning a reputation as someone who knows how to bring the right people together at exactly the right moment.
Her career achievements speak for themselves: leading a CPA firm from 7th place to #1 in its category, creating a Business Service Center concept recognized by J.D. Power & Associates as #1 in the nation for four consecutive years, earning her Executive MBA from Bellarmine University, and teaching Entrepreneurial Strategy in their MBA program for five years. She has served on countless boards and been a trusted voice in economic development, leadership, and business strategy at the highest levels.
Today, Molly has stepped back from day-to-day operations, and she is loving it. She is intentionally choosing every day, embracing the freedom she spent decades helping others find. Still connected to causes she loves through the Honorable Order of Kentucky Colonels, Molly is living proof that a life well-worked deserves a life well-lived.
She resides in Lexington, Kentucky with her husband Lee and is loving every minute. ✨
