Co-Founder of oVertone & Founder of Liora Dudar Coaching
After achieving world-wide recognition and publication for several feminist photography projects, Liora co-founded and bootstrapped oVertone Haircare in 2014 with her business partner, taking the project from kitchen table to Target shelves within 7 years. oVertone is recognized not only for its innovative, industry disrupting hair color products, but also for the company’s cultural commitment to dismantling conventional beauty standards through embracing and promoting a culture of radical inclusion and intersectional feminism. After a successful exit in early 2022, she turned an eye back to what excited me most about building a business in the first place – the people.
Today, Liora helps entrepreneurs reignite their passion for their business through helping them articulate the things that matter most, and teach them how to wield their passion as a superpower. She does this through customized coaching plans that guide founders into defining a true north star – Mission, Vision, and Values – for their business, and how to use them as the primary strategic and culture-building tool.
