“Working with Alisa has been one of the most transformative professional investments I’ve ever made, and that’s saying something after 25 years in tech leadership… Time and again, she has helped me see the patterns I couldn’t see on my own, name them, and then actually move through them instead of around them.”

Michelle Tomes

Director of Customer Success, Leverage

“She asks great and thoughtful questions, and she puts you immediately at ease. I walked away with clarity about an issue that had been vexing me for some time, and with better direction and forward momentum.”

Shannon Bartlett,

Founder, Cento Clarity

“Alisa never coached me as a collection of problems that needed to be solved. She coached me as a whole person. She created space for me to explore who I am, what matters to me, and who I want to become.”

Senior Global Employee Relations Manager, Edelman

“Deeply thoughtful understanding of leadership and talent development. We’ve maintained a relationship over the years. Alisa is my go to when I need a conversation to work through developing a strategy for my team. She’s helped my mindset in various roles, as a store director, fellow trainer and now as a regional director. She’s a brilliant collaborator and I treasure our “fierce” conversations.”

Christina Androsky

Regional Retail Director, American Spoon

“Alisa has a presence that is contagious. She is inspiring, optimistic and supportive. She leads and masters a room and guides people to a stronger future. She has excellent skills in training, project management and communication. Her naturally collaborative nature allows her to achieve consensus around difficult issues, and arrive at strong solutions.”

Laurie Cure, PhD

CEO, Innovative Connections

“Alisa is a humble expert – that wonderful sort of individual who inspires, collaborates, innovates, and makes everyone feel they have a voice, their contributions are indispensable, and the wins of the group belong to each and every member. Alisa is a stellar example of the best we can be as leaders: she brings out the best in others and leads without seeming to lead.”
