“Lisa has and continues to be a fantastic coach. I love that she is approachable and has a great sense of humor, while also has the ability to cut right to the matter and pose challenging questions and alternative points of view in a gentle and pointed manner. Her experience and perspective has been invaluable to me. My toolkit and confidence has grown infinitely since I began working with her over a year ago. Lisa has been incredibly generous as a coach and also a great role model in so many dimensions of her life. I appreciate that she has been able to keep the focus on my own wisdom and discovery, while also sharing invaluable stories, experiences and perspectives from her own professional practice and life. I would highly recommend Lisa as an executive and mentor coach!”
