Founder of Crescendo Coaching & Consulting Corp.
I’m Lisa, Leadership & Career Coach, Corporate Trainer & Facilitator, Fracrional Consultant, Speaker, Artsy Engineer and Corporate Marketing Executive. I help mid-senior professionals, managers, and organizations build confident leaders, high-performing teams, and measurable business results.
My work focuses on leadership development, manager training, career coaching, and team effectiveness. Clients come to me when they need clearer direction, stronger communication, better decision-making, and leaders who can guide growth and change with confidence.
With 25 years of corporate experience in senior marketing, strategy, and transformation, I bring real-world business experience, not theory. I’ve led teams, scaled functions, and delivered results across IT Services, HR SaaS, Healthcare, Insurance, Financial Services, High Tech, and Telecommunications. I understand how business performance and human performance must work together.
Known as an “Artsy Engineer” (B.E. Eng. & Mgmt), combining creative thinking with analytical rigor. I blend coaching psychology with strategy, systems, and execution so growth is both insights-driven and actionable.
