Lisa shares our mission to make positive leadership the norm rather than the exception by leading by example. She shares how she knew how to be a good leader by following the mantra: “be the leader you want to be led by.”

A self-described control freak, Lisa shares how she learned to let go and foster a team culture where everyone could work together to get the job done. She reflects on her lessons learned from her personal leadership journey underscoring how true leadership is about more than a title on an organizational chart.

We dive into Lisa’s journey to become a consultant – leaving her “dream job” because she was constantly running into a brick wall with no collaboration from other teams. She talks honestly about how she navigated that time and refined her leadership skills to support other leaders to build their self-reliance. She shares the one thing she asks all leaders – if they can step away for 30 days and not worry – and how that becomes a criterion of success for those she works with.

About Lisa: For over a quarter of a century, Lisa's experience has spanned diverse sectors, from healthcare and finance to government, navigating the complexities inherent in each. She holds professional certificates including Lean Six Sigma Master and Project Management Professional. In 2009,she started Lcubed Consulting. The firm's tailored approach fosters disruptive leadership, nurturing agility and driving businesses forward even amidst unforeseeable disruptions. Her book, "Future Proofing Cubed," encapsulates these insights, ensuring businesses are not only equipped for today but are resilient for tomorrow.
