ORGANIZATIONS LLP HAS WORKED WITH:
Expertise in five core areas
Profitability & Financial Transformation
Lisa works with companies to identify profit opportunities, refine pricing and positioning, and build operating models that support sustained financial performance. Her experience leading large-scale transformation, from brand evolution to commercial execution, helps companies unlock margin, scale smarter, and move with confidence.
"Evolving your brand or services through strategic investment and compelling and differentiated experiences like we did at Celebrity creates a unique opportunity to then invest, market, and price in a different and smarter way, which generates better demand and better pricing and, in return, higher profitability."
Culture That Drives Performance
Lisa helps companies build strong, respectful, accountable cultures because culture is a strategic asset, not a slogan. She partners with leadership teams to define clear expectations, reinforce values through behavior, and create environments where people are aligned, engaged, accountable, and delivering at the highest level.
“Evolving a culture is not for the faint of heart. That’s why we were intentional - hiring for culture first, aligning around shared vision, expectations, values, and embedding a culture of respect and accountability at every level of the organization.”
Leadership Development & Succession Planning
Lisa works with boards and CEOs to strengthen leadership pipelines and navigate executive transitions with clarity and intention. From coaching senior leaders to advising on C-suite structure, she brings practical insight to help organizations grow and develop talent, sustain culture, lead with confidence, and build a bench for the future.
“Leadership is about guiding, developing, and empowering others to reach their full potential and ensure the company’s ongoing success.”
Strategic Investment & Operational Alignment
Lisa helps organizations connect vision to execution. She brings experience aligning investment decisions, operational focus, and cross-functional teams around a clear, measurable path forward so that strategy doesn’t only exist on paper, but results in execution that drives real results across the business.
“Vision without execution is just a dream. We stayed focused on our north star and strategy, and that discipline is what allowed us to turn the Edge series into a brand halo that lifted every part of the business.”
Crisis & Change Management
Lisa brings steady, experienced guidance to companies navigating disruption, from market shifts and restructures to reputational risk and post-crisis recovery. Her approach helps leaders pivot, stay focused, preserve trust, and move forward with clarity, no matter the complexity.
“When you experience 15 months of being out of business with 20,000 people around the world looking toward you for hope and waiting for answers, you realize your leadership style and focus need to evolve and pivot. This unprecedented time taught me that crisis leadership is when strategy, reprioritization, and your strength as a leader matter most.”
