What people say
Lesley Davies, Chief People Officer
“I thoroughly recommend Lisa as an outstanding development practitioner, leadership coach and expert in organisational culture.
Lisa and I first worked together in Three UK where she expertly supported and guided the Senior Leadership Team and whole Business through a transformative culture journey. Results were long term; employee engagement scores were consistently high and contributed greatly to business performance.
Lisa focuses on deep behavioural change; building behaviours into habits and habits into culture. Her methods focus on actionable changes that make the difference. She is a true lifelong learner, always adding to her knowledge and experience, and I personally always learn when I work with her.
In the last few years, Lisa and I have collaborated to support Executive teams in high growth businesses. Lisa has a first-class mind in understanding development outcomes, be that designing leadership interventions, facilitating programmes, or in her 1:1 coaching. What I value above all her expertise is Lisa’s calm, genuine, thoughtful and considered approach. She creates trust, she naturally respects boundaries and she is an entirely supportive partner to work with.
Perhaps the best recommendation I can give is that I’ve returned to Lisa over many years for support with different organisations, different challenges and different teams and still find her to be the best!”
Rocky Atkins, Board Chair
“I had the good fortune to work with Lisa on many occasions over a 5-year period where she supported me on a variety of employee engagement and cultural change programmes in India and the UK.
During the course of this work I found Lisa to be a gifted facilitator with an ability to cut through the noise and lead a group of strong-willed executives to a productive outcome.
Lisa is also a trusted leadership coach with a strong focus on people and behaviours. She has a very calm, easy-going style but she's very energetic and passionate about the work she's doing.
Working with her was always a pleasure and I look forward to working with her again.”
Jemimah Parnell, Group HR Director and NED
“Lisa’s knowledge and expertise in Leadership Development, Cultural Change and Behavioural Science is extraordinary. She clearly understands how all three elements combine and complement each other to drive development and cultural shifts.
She has an amazing ability to facilitate Senior Executives and Leaders, getting to the nub and heart of discussions and ensuring clarity of actions/outcomes are identified. Her expertise is second to none and I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
Quan Zhang, Global Chief Financial Officer
“Words are not strong enough to express my immense gratitude for Lisa’s incredible professionalism and personal touch during one of the most exciting and yet most challenging parts of my career.
Her patience and kind, calm demeanour created a safe space for me to open up, and her skill at asking open questions guided my own self-reflection. I found the right path forward and, in the process, rediscovered my purpose and passion all over again.
After more than 20 years in the industry, I have encountered many Executive Coaches. None have managed to touch and make the impact that Lisa managed to do for me in that six months.”
Graham Baxter, Chief Technology Officer and NED
“I worked with Lisa as my Executive Coach over a period of six months. I found her to be insightful, supportive and very perceptive. She was great at building rapport and very outcome focused.
Lisa was particularly skilled in tuning in to my needs, getting to the root cause of the issues I wanted to address, and creating a challenging but safe environment that encouraged me to push against my own boundaries.
Lisa’s coaching supported me to further develop my leadership style and wider leadership skills.”
