Karen Gordon

Owner & CEO, 5 Dynamics

Karen Gordon is the CEO of 5 Dynamics, a company that is focused on making the world a better place one relationship at a time. Our proprietary software, Simpli5, creates cultures fueled by self and interpersonal awareness to bolster productive collaboration, boost morale, accelerate timelines, and deliver better results. Most leaders tend to focus on what people do, instead of how they do it. In 3 minutes or less, Simpli5 determines how a person works through different phases of a project–ideation, alignment, planning and execution. Using these analyses, Simpli5 delivers customized development resources to leaders and their team members. As an author, educator and entrepreneur, Karen brings to the table over 25 years of experience leading organizations to reach their highest potential. Before launching 5 Dynamics in 2010, Karen led GTCI, a data and telecommunications company, to over 1100% growth, landing GTCI on the Inc. 500 list two years in a row. Karen was named an Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the year finalist in 2005 and was named in the Dallas Top 25 Leaders the same year.
