Hi, I’m Lisa. Let’s re-imagine leadership together.

what i do

I’m a facilitator, trainer, advisor, and coach specializing in leadership, organizational culture, and networks. I work with leaders of all sorts at mission-based and community-based nonprofits, foundations, government agencies, and networks. If you are wondering if you are a leader, you are.

my expertise

Need help increasing self-awareness, deepening reflection, and emboldening action in your leadership? Are you looking to get clear on your desired organizational culture and to co-create pathways for cultural change? Do you want to maximize the power of your network by leveraging differences, enhancing relationships, and building a culture of adaptive learning? I’ve worked with over 130 clients and trained over 4,000 leaders since 2010. Let’s work together

  • Leadership comes from actions, not titles. You are a leader because you care about something. You are a leader because you are taking meaningful action. Learn more about how I work with leaders.

  • Developing effective networks takes a particular approach and expertise. It doesn’t work to apply the tools and strategies of change that work for organizations or institutions. It takes getting out of your comfort zone. Learn more about how I work with networks.

  • Leaders often realize it’s time for a culture change because things feel stuck. You might be feeling that there is untapped potential. Is your organization ready for a culture change? Learn more about how we can work together.

  • I specialize in the most challenging aspects of leadership. Ready to cultivate a thriving supervisory relationship? Build an effective team? Maybe you are looking for support to lead in uncertainty? I have a training for you.
