Smart Leaders Network Mentorship Program has a variety of volunteers that dedicate their time and passion for the purpose of developing the Global Mentorship Program.  Without the support of our 12 volunteers we wouldn’t be able to successfully build a charitable program that works for our global community.

I’d like to profile some of our volunteers and thank them thus far for their efforts.

Lisa Rubinstein is a member of our Thought Leadership Counsel.  She’s supporting us through strategy and ideas generation in the program.

Lisa has spent much of her life observing the layers of leadership in a mission to unearth the underlying reasons for human behavior and the effects on organizational performance. Her curiosity about leadership performance is informed by an undergraduate economics paradigm and her innate sense of the challenges faced by senior management, gained from mixing with some of the world’s most senior executives during her youth and coaching top leaders for the past 15 years.

Known for helping leaders (and leaders to be) accelerate their performance, Lisa’s greatest joy is enabling her clients find their truth and unlock their full leadership potential within. As a trainer, seminar leader and executive advisor, she’s transformed the lives and careers of thousands of clients helping them to achieve a multitude of outcomes along the way.

 

Kristin Austin is our Program Marketing Lead.  She’s supporting us through developing and delivering a marketing and communications strategy that meets Smart Leaders Network business goals and customer needs.

For most of the last 20 years, Kristin as worked as a marketing communication strategist helping CEOs and business owners build stronger sales pipelines. She’s worked with large corporates, governments, NFPs and small business and is still incredibly passionate about helping her clients connect meaningfully with their customers and improving their revenues. She teaches others how to do it in her sought after client workshops on Marketing strategies for growth and loyalty; Strategic communications planning; Winning that pitch; Writing for business & media; and WIIFM – getting your marketing messages spot on.
