About Lisa
Complexity only creates value when it becomes clear decisions, accountable ownership, and disciplined execution. That’s where I operate.
I lead program management and strategic partnerships that turn cross‑border strategy into clear decision rights, accountable ownership, and disciplined execution across EMEA and APAC. I focus on program governance, operating‑model design, partnership architecture, and executive‑level alignment so expansion, transformation, and integration convert to measurable business results.
Across 15+ years I’ve delivered M&A diligence and divestitures, JV formation and turnarounds, cross‑border market entry and regional rollouts, and enterprise transformation—installing decision rights, escalation paths, KPI frameworks, and governance cadence that reduce friction, speed decisions, and improve execution reliability.
Representative impact includes:
- Cost reductions up to 40%
- Lead-time reductions of 25–80%
- Service levels reaching ~98%
- ~€400M in value creation through operating-model redesign and partnership governance
Core Capabilities:
- Cross-Border Expansion & Market Entry Execution
- Strategic Partnerships & Ecosystem Architecture
- Program & Transformation Leadership
- Operating Model & Governance Design
- Strategy-to-Execution Frameworks
- Multi-Stakeholder Alignment & Executive Coordination
- M&A Diligence, JV Structuring & Integration Governance
- Organizational Systems Optimization
Industry Experience:
- Technology
- Energy
- Automotive
- Consumer Products
- Manufacturing
- Industrials
- Hospitality
My governance, partner-network, and rollout frameworks translate directly into multi-site and service-oriented environments, where scalable expansion, multi-project coordination, and service reliability depend on structured operating discipline.
