Embody Your Vision
Increase your organization’s Engagement Quotient (EnQ) by ensuring that your Vision resonates with the team by every measure: the intellectual (IQ), emotional (EQ), AND the physical (PQ).
Build Trust and Loyalty
Develop a heightened perceptual awareness that allows you to tap into your team’s potential and create a culture of connection and trust.
Transformative Feedback
Learn how to give and receive feedback that enlivens, balances, and engages others instead of shutting down their own potential and losing their talent.
Engage the Disengaged
Assess levels of individual and/or team engagement in order to quickly and effectively lead your organization in the midst of complexity.
About Me
Seeing beyond conventional wisdom while holding fast to my vision has proved challenging at times and has called upon every one of my ‘sense’- abilities and intelligences. Yet, the decades of witnessing profound physical and behavioral change in my clients through experiential learning and coaching has solidified my commitment to my life’s work – the embodied transformation of leaders.
The times in which we live are becoming increasingly complex. Our rational mind (IQ) can be over stimulated, misinformed, and disconnected from our emotional (EQ) and physical intelligence (PQ). This lack of alignment on all levels can create confusion, lack of clarity and challenges that lead to disengagement at the organizational level. Realizing that these experiences are not unique, I have pursued, both academically and as a practitioner, experiential learning methodologies that support leaders in developing the perceptual skillset that allows them to integrate IQ, EQ and PQ to increase their Engagement Quotient™ (EnQ).
Lights-On Leadership™ and Equine-assisted Learning (EAL) are two such methods. Experiencing these somatic ways of engaging others have been game changing for my clients. This extra-sensory way of learning is the ‘missing link’ in most other transformational leadership development and engagement programs. So, naturally, I want to share these revolutionary processes and skillsets with leaders who are ready to make quantum shifts in their abilities to create nimble, resilient, fully aligned and engaged organizations.

The Face of Engagement – Lights-On Learning™
Does your Vision resonate throughout your entire body and light you up? Or is it just another intellectual idea that quickly runs out of gas and uses up valuable resources? The use of before and after video footage of your face reveals your embodied Vision and Purpose. This, in turn, allows you to clearly communicate and engage your team in creating the strategies that will support it.
The Energetics of Engagement
How you show up as a leader is communicated through your body language and can either engage or disengage those you work with. Managing your own energy is an important step in understanding how to quickly engage others in the moment. Using The Attention and Choice Point Guide allows you to shift your performance so that business stays “above the line” and energized.
Constructive Criticism is Not Constructive
The extent of one’s engagement is directly proportionate to the quality of the feedback they are getting. Knowing the difference between the types of feedback that disengages versus that which engages is a critical skill for all leaders. Utilizing Transformative Feedback unlocks the potential of your team to perform at a much higher level and to find creative strategies for working in a complex world.

“I have been in senior leadership positions in the technology industry for over 20 years. Technology professionals like myself tend to be uncomfortable with leadership challenges where we have to engage heart and gut; in addition to our head. However, working with Lissa, and the powerful and compelling horses was an eye-opener and game-changer. There is simply no substitute for people like me to learn to engage in a full spectrum way as leaders.”
Patty Beach
CEO Leadership Smarts
“I can honestly say of the 1000’s of hours I’ve spent in leadership development training, that coaching with Lissa and her horses really stands out, and this singularly unique experience continues to shape me. I was blown away with what I learned in just a few hours about being a leader. Working with the horses allows you to explore and embody the intangible qualities of leadership that engage others and inspire them to follow you.”

“Seeing How to Serve – Leveraging Somatic Intelligence to Transform Others has been invaluable to me as an international business coach. Understanding how to watch for subtle shifts in my client’s face, and entire system, allows me to be more effective in aligning their Passion, Purpose and Vision with their actions and strategy. Once you know how to engage others on the mental, emotional, and the physical planes, you will never go back to seeing in one dimension.”
