Lisa Passi

Lisa Passi is a sought-after business consultant and public speaker. Formerly the President of Drew Pearson International, a global marketing enterprise, Lisa has spent decades working with thousands of professionals—from emerging leaders to C-suite executives—across technology, finance, healthcare, automotive, real estate, and consumer products. Through this extensive global experience, Lisa discovered the core drivers of peak performance, which she shares in her leadership guide, PeoplePower Unlocked: Secrets to Success.

Lisa firmly believes that organizations do not have to choose between exceptional business results and compassionate workplace cultures. By building trust, fostering accountability, and leading with empathy, leaders can unlock high engagement and innovation for a true win-win. When high care meets high accountability, powerful things happen - Lisa calls that PeoplePower.

A writer from an early age, Lisa also brings her love of narrative to fiction. She is the author of the critically acclaimed novel, The Deal, a business-intrigue narrative inspired by her high-stakes professional experiences.

It may seem very different from her work in leadership, but there's a common thread: storytelling. Lisa is a storyteller at heart. Whether she is writing fiction or speaking on leadership, storytelling is how she connects ideas, makes them memorable, and brings them to life—because every great lesson starts with a story.
