Lisa is the author of She's Back: Your Guide to Returning to Work which draws on her experience of helping hundreds of "career break" women resume their professional careers. After seven years as CEO of the Reignite Academy, Lisa is now working on her debut novel, Shelf Life. A former partner with Arthur Andersen Business Consulting and Director of Brand and Communication at Deloitte, Lisa had a 20 year career in professional services before taking a career break. She set up She's Back in 2014 to highlight the potential in women ready to return to work. Latterly, she co-founded the Reignite Academy to help female lawyers navigate successful long term careers.
The mission of the Reignite Academy is to help lawyers navigate successful long term careers. We help people find new roles and we offer a wide range of career development training, coaching and advice.
In my role as LinkedIn Top Voice, I have been dedicated to empowering women in the workforce by sharing insights on achieving work-life balance, career advancement, and financial stability. Through thought-provoking articles and engaging interviews with industry leaders, I have inspired others to pursue their passions while maintaining a healthy balance in their lives.
Thrilled to have been selected by the LinkedIn editors as one of the LinkedIn Top Voices for 2018. I write and speak about women in the workplace. I'm a big believer that women's careers are often not linear. They twist and turn. I help women navigate the ups and downs during that messy middle phase and support women who want to return after a career break.
