About the founder &
the force multiplier

The Founder & The Force Multiplier was created by Hallie Warner and Adam Hergenrother to elevate the strategic partnership between leaders and their right-hand partners—Executive Assistants, Chiefs of Staff, and other Force Multipliers.

With over 15 years of real-world experience building businesses and high-impact partnerships, we’re here to help you communicate better, lead stronger, grow faster, and navigate the complex challenges of career, business, and leadership growth.

What began as a book has evolved into a movement. Through our coaching, courses, and weekly newsletter, we provide the tools, insights, and support to help Force Multipliers and entrepreneurial leaders accelerate their impact.

building businesses, Growing careers & developing leaders

When we wrote The Founder & The Force Multiplier: How Entrepreneurs and Executive Assistants Achieve More Together in February 2019, our mission was to spotlight the power of the strategic partnership between an entrepreneur and their right-hand employee—whether that’s an Executive Assistant, Personal Assistant, or Chief of Staff. What started as a guide to collaboration has since evolved into a platform for leadership development and purposeful growth.
