Savor the World: The Keynote
An inspiring, story-packed talk about how shared narrative about the state of the world can undermine our clarity, grounding, and self-agency, and how a new narrative, rooted in a growing body of research into the science of savoring, sustains and strengthens our capacity to make a difference.
“Lisa is able to create completely new ways to engage audiences such that they can listen, hear and then internalize.”
Lisa Renstrom, Cofounder and Executive Director, Values Advisor
Staying Power Workshops
Purpose-driven work has never felt more important. Or harder to sustain.
These facilitated workshops help people understand how pressure affects the way they work and strengthen the clarity, grounding, and agency they need to keep advancing important missions.
“Lisa has an incredible talent for guiding conversations in a positive, forward-looking direction while ensuring everyone feels heard.”
Anacron, Allen, People and Culture, California Academy of Sciences
A Day of Renewal
In extraordinary times like these, pressure on purpose-driven leaders and teams can show up as depletion, reactivity, or corrosive doubt that our work isn’t making enough of a difference.
Day of Renewal helps purpose-driven leaders and teams restore the clarity, grounding, and agency they need to keep doing meaningful work, by reconnecting people, purpose, and possibility.
“Facilitation is an art and a science, and Lisa has both elements in abundance.”
Chris Spence, Former EVP, Golden Gate National Parks Conservancy
What it’s like to work together
01 · A CONVERSATION
Half an hour, no cost, no pitch. What is happening in your organization, who will be in the room, and what you need to be different afterward.
02 · A PROPOSAL
One page within a week: the shape of the session, what it costs, what I need from you. Simple enough to forward to whoever approves it.
03 · MORE LISTENING
Before I design the session for you, I talk with a few people who will be in the room, or send a short set of questions. Your language ends up in the work.
04 · AFTER
A short written follow-up with what the group said and committed to, so the day does not evaporate. I am reachable afterward.
What is going on with your team?
I’d be happy to listen and share some thoughts.
