Heading into my second term as CEO of a large professional services organization with over 200 partners/owners, I wanted to ensure that I was as effective as possible leading a continued transformation of the organization.

Working with Lisa has allowed me to begin to unleash the full power of the team around me. Listening and asking questions to empower my team to get to the decision has many benefits: a more collaborative environment, capacity building and succession planning, better decisions and outcomes to name a few.

I enjoy my time working with Lisa. She is intelligent, diligent and focused. She is friendly but tough. She is also practical, which is incredibly important. She knows how to weave theory into action.

Lisa consistently displays compassion and empathy and is generous with providing valuable insights. Her calm demeanour has anchored each of our sessions, and I frequently found myself seeking her insights in times of crisis. As a coach, she asks impactful (and sometimes difficult!) questions, and provides space for self-reflection within each session. If others are lucky enough to experience Lisa’s coaching, it will likely be a highlight of their professional life.

Working with Lisa was a game changer. She has a talent for hearing the real issue behind the concerns tabled, and for providing practical, achievable, real-life solutions that make a big difference, immediately.

Her advice and guidance were instrumental in helping me navigate through challenging change management. I’ve gained a greater understanding of my role in difficult interactions, and how to adjust in the moment to ease the process and facilitate the outcome.

One of the biggest benefits has been the ability to understand what’s really happening in tough conversations—and then pivot to strategies that actually help me achieve my goals.

Everyone needs a leadership coach, and Lisa is excellent. She’s quick to grasp the issues, practical and solution-oriented, mindful of busy schedules, and incredibly skilled at empowering leaders to reach their potential—with less friction and fewer transaction costs.

I’ve recommended Lisa to many other high-performing leaders, and every one of them has come back grateful for the experience and growth she helped them unlock.

The most significant change since working with Lisa is that I now work with more purpose. My perspective and definition of success and what drives success has changed and evolved. Lisa enabled me to develop a deeper sense of self-awareness and understanding of how my behaviour patterns served me well or how they became de-railers to achieving my goals.

Lisa is engaged and committed in every work session. She takes the time to really listen and works with you to help you bring to the surface the key issues to manage so that you can reach your full potential. She respectfully challenges you when needed. She guides you and helps you articulate the key challenges you are facing. Above all, she works with you to explore what works best for you.

Lisa takes the time to provide and explain the tools and frameworks that will assist you in your journey to reach your full potential.

I have been able to progress to the next level of my career with ease, and I owe a lot of this to my work with Lisa.

I encourage you to be ready to dedicate yourself completely to the sessions, as it takes full commitment. Lisa will dig deep beneath the surface and unlock some of the triggers and roadblocks that are difficult to face and potentially holding you back. Ultimately with Lisa’s support and guidance doing so will help you overcome these hurdles and succeed as a future leader.

As a new CEO in a fast-growing startup, I faced the challenge of creating a strong, cohesive company culture while managing diverse personalities and building trust within my leadership team. I also needed an impartial sounding board—someone who could help me think through complex decisions and ensure I was leading with clarity and confidence.

I had no idea how vital a business coach could be to building a strong company. Every time I left a conversation with Lisa, I was struck by her ability to cut through the noise and help me focus on what really mattered. Her honesty and respectful candor—even when it wasn’t what I wanted to hear—were invaluable. I never felt judged. Instead, her insights consistently revealed new possibilities and helped me take the right actions for the business.

Lisa helped me understand the full meaning of culture, vision, and mission—and how to bring them to life. She taught me how to navigate different personalities and situations, making me a better leader. She was my sounding board, helping me stay sane in the chaos of startup life.

Thanks to our work together, I’ve learned to trust my instincts, believe in my leadership, and lead with more confidence and clarity.

Lisa is an amazing human being and the best executive coach I know. She’s bright, insightful, always candid, and truly transformational—if you’re willing to do the work.
