SPEAKING & EVENTS

I’m a transformational leadership coach, brand strategist, and founder of Be Bright Lisa. Speaking about creative leadership and purpose lights me up.

Since 2008, I have created dozens of events from large panel gatherings to intimate workshops. From concept creation to hosting, moderating, and speaking, I’m driven to create deep connections and powerful conversations with my audience. 

I facilitate intensive workshops that are 100% is tailored to your organization’s needs. I’ve identified some of the top themes that resonate deeply with next level leaders.

• Leadership for Creatives
• Create the Power of Purpose in your Work
• Define your Brand Commitment
• Define your Personal Brand
• Create a Curious Mindset in Leadership
• Get Unstuck and into Action

IN-PERSON WORKSHOPS

My workshops focus on leadership, mindset work, personal branding, finding your purpose and blending all aspects of who you are in a doable and joy-filled way. 

The first design studio I worked for in 1999 was called Addis, The Brand Essence Company. Now I help ambitious people find their true essence, thought leadership and personal brand. Then we weave it into their life and work and believe me, it’s transformational. 

“It was energizing and informational to sit and share with such a diverse, exciting group of women. Lisa’s focus on getting us each to understand where we are coming from at our core was the perfect answer to which direction should I go. She’s helped me clear the clutter and see the path that I’m meant to start down now.” Workshop attendee
