Bonjour, I'm Lina!
I'm passionate about facilitating transformative processes and helping leaders unlock their full potential.
With over 15 years of experience, I have worked with executives, entrepreneurs, changemakers, and high-performing individuals across various industries, including wellness, government, and corporate leadership.
Through prestigious consulting agencies such as Performance Frontiers and NKD, I had the privilege of coaching and facilitating workshops for senior executives at major organisations including Woolworths Group, Big W, CSR and Australia Post.
I have guided clients through profound personal transformations, enabling them to lead with authenticity, clarity, and impact. My coaching combines traditional methodologies with dynamic, cutting-edge tools to create sustainable growth and lasting change.
With a Master of Commerce, an MBA, and a Certificate IV in training and assessment, and certifications as a Vertical Development Coach and Scrum Master, I bring a wealth of experience in design thinking and innovative methods like Theory U to my work. My journey has taken me from being a Marketing and Communication executive at Cisco and Volkswagen to lecturing in marketing principles and consumer behavior, and for the past 15 years, I've been deeply engaged in coaching leaders and helping teams navigate chaos, complexity and uncertainty.
I believe in the power of collective wisdom and have developed methods that foster authentic leadership and enhance team capabilities, allowing them to see, do, and be in new and impactful ways. As the convenor of The Sydney Facilitators Network (SFN), I’m part of a vibrant community of practice, and I’m also a master facilitator of various methodologies, including World Café, Open Space Technology, and Human-Centered Design.
Collaboration is at the heart of my approach, and I’m fortunate to have access to a network of talented coaches and facilitators who I bring in on a needs basis to collaborate on projects.
I’m also known for creating my own processes and resources, like the MACRO Leaders model, which guides leaders and organizations through transformation with a focus on Mindfulness, Authenticity, Courage, Resilience, and Openness. My Mindful Cooking team building programs integrate learnings in a creative way, using sustainably produced food to inspire change in individual and collective behaviours.
As a certified yoga and meditation teacher, I know how to create spaces where people can reflect, listen deeply, and engage with empathy. I'm also a regular contributor at various conscious business events, where I speak about mindful leadership, accountability, systems thinking, self-awareness, and resilience.
I'm here to help you and your team thrive in this rapidly changing world, and I’m excited to collaborate with you on your journey!
Feel free to reach out if you're looking for a partner in leadership development, transformational coaching, or any other area where my expertise could make a difference. I look forward to connecting!
