LISA’s LIBRARY: MY CURATED LIST OF RESOURCES

 
 

 What I’m reading, listening to & watching 

 Check out some of my favourites I often share with clients as they begin or look to invest more time in leadership development and coaching. I am an avid reader, and book-junkie, often collecting books to read, forever inspired by the journey of self-improvement and development. I’ve highlighted books, podcasts and talks, as well as video resources that are my go-to’s, and have guided me in my journey as Coach, Leader and fellow human. You will find that they also complement my coaching style and approach. So, if you’ve already read or watched some of these and love them as much as I do, I think we’ll be a good fit! 

If you’re just getting started, that’s okay too. I hope you find some gems in here, and spend some time learning from some other great thinkers, leaders and coaches.
