Andrew Kilshaw - Global Head (SVP) of Organizational Capability and Transformation, Sanofi “Lisa is an acutely skilled and engaged listener, who instils trust, sees through the noise and gets to the heart of the key issue/opportunity quickly. Her style is naturally collaborative, inspiring, uplifting and imparts confidence in the teams she works with. I love Lisa’s ability to blend deep competence in what she does with approachability, simplicity, authenticity and just being frankly a ton of fun to work with. She makes teams that she’s a part of better for it, in every sense. I would recommend working with Lisa for any aspect of realising full human potential - either an individual, team or broader organization.” Rolien Hoogers - VP HR EMEA, Nike, Inc. “I worked with Lisa on a difficult transition with my team. I was transitioning as a leader earlier as planned (relocating) and needed someone to help me set up my team as they would be without a leader for a while. I immediately thought of Lisa. Lisa's assessment skills, her adaptability, Her cultural sensitivity, her listening skills, her broad experience, her style was all we needed. She not only was able to help the team align on the strategy, we also got a clear plan in place, including how the team could welcome and on-board the new leader and be a self-managing team for the months in-between. Aside all this, she also helped me with my own transition. Forever grateful for the experience she gave us. I highly recommend Lisa.” Tiffini Mueller - VP, Marketing Communications & Community Engagement, Relay Resources “Lisa was my coach during an engagement that spanned some of the most challenging times in my professional life. I'll forever be grateful to Lisa, and all of her incredible gifts. She sees things that you don't. She knows when to push a bit and when to be gentle. She is authentically present in every interaction. The magic she has curated shows up in both her facilitation and her coaching. She's taught me so much about my leadership, helped me set a course for my future, and is an amazing support, even though our official coaching time has come to an end. For now. I'd recommend Lisa wholeheartedly for just about anything.” |
