something needs to shift

field and blue sky

You know something needs to shift

I walk with the part of you that's ready

This is inner work - for outer impact

Are These Your Questions, Too? 

Should I stay or should I go?

You're in a role others respect, but a quiet part of you is questioning whether this is still the life you want. 

 

Maybe it’s time to leave the golden cage. To step back, re-evaluate what success means now - and explore new paths, including the entrepreneurial one you haven't dared to say out loud.

"Nothing shifts until you do"

Who I Work With.

Graphic representing an organisational structure with interconnected people

Organisations

Leadership teams willing to face what's unspoken. Tell the truth. Hold the tension. Decide what matters & make it stick. Across people, patterns, and systems. 

Because when leaders shift, alignment follows.

Leaders & Founders

You think fast. Feel deeply. You're brilliant. In ways that don't always fit neat boxes. 

When success on paper no longer feels enough; when something says, "This can't be it..." we figure out what's next.

Coaches 

If you're ready to become the presence that transforms, let's walk. 

We'll deepen your mastery and build a business that's powerful, profitable, and rooted in real impact. One that sustains you - and the work. 

With clarity. With depth. With love. 

"The way you show up is shaping the world - whether you mean it or not" 

Lise Bruynooghe

What Changes. 

The world is shifting. Constantly

It feels like there's quicksand under your feet
The leaders who thrive are grounded in themselves and learn to dance with the uncertainty

You're not here to be fixed

You're here to remember who you are and create from that place 

This work starts by slowing down

To lead with clarity, boldness, and quiet authority

When more people lead from that depth, the system shifts

You stop chasing the next thing

​You stop outsourcing your authority

You become more present in how you lead, and how you live 

It begins with a conversation.

Before anything else, we talk

No agenda. Just space to connect 

If it's a yes on both sides, we deepen the work 

The work is never the same

Some clients pivot. Others deepen where they are 

What they share is alignment with themselves, with others, with the path ahead 

  • A COO sees the role is a dead end - and begins shaping a future as CEO, backed by board seats 

  • A CFO and their team go from stalling to shared ownership and start delivering 

  • A CEO transforms the board's culture and earns the mandate for real change 

  • A family business owner builds the leadership team that will carry the legacy forward 

  • A lawyer leaves big law to create their own firm - and brings their Fortune 500 clients with them 

  • A coach-founder stops playing small - and builds a business rooted in freedom, mastery, and impact

Confidence & Leadership Presence

This isn't for everyone.

If you want a quick fix, templated models, or permission to avoid discomfort, this isn't it

This work is for those ready to: 

  • Be bold

  • Ask sharper questions 

  • Look at themselves and the systems they shape

  • Take full responsibility for what they build, how they lead and who they choose to become

If something in you recognises the tone, the pace, the depth - let's talk

No agenda. Just space to connect 

If it's a yes on both sides, we deepen the work ​

How it Works. 

I work with a few clients at a time 

The work is deep. Systemic. Relational 

 

Packages start at CHF 5,000 and go up to CHF 50,000 

Organisational work is bespoke - shaped after our initial conversation 

We slow down to see clearly and act with intent 

Because the only moment we can shape is now 

This is a partnership designed to change how you lead - and how you live

The Reset 

Most work begins with The Reset

A private retreat. Two days in nature. We step outside the office. Because real shifts rarely happen inside the same four walls

​​You don't need more advice. You need space to see both your work and life holistically. When the noise fades, "what's next" becomes clear

The Partnership

From there, the work deepens

Or sometimes, The Reset is enough

Group Retreats

Invite-only retreats in nature for sustainability changemakers, founders & entrepreneurs, women in leadership and coaches

​We walk. We talk. We go deep

No slides. No agenda

Just space to explore mastery, business impact, and meaning 

It begins with a conversation.

Before anything else, we talk

No agenda. Just space to connect 

If it's a yes on both sides, we deepen the work

What Clients Say.

The coaching sessions with Lise have been my most valuable resource for my first year of C-Level responsibilities. She helped me structure my thoughts through a broad range of challenges, trust myself to go my own way, anticipate and thus be prepared to dissolve conflicts on the spot. I highly recommend her support.

"Most people wait. You don't have to"

Lise Bruynooghe

About Lise.

I partner with leaders ready to shift from "I should do this alone" to "I deserve world-class support" 

I am part of the reason they're successful and I'm proud of it

 

I've walked with leaders and teams across 30+ countries

from global institutions and NGOs

to founders, CEOs, and coaches

People with influence, responsibility, and often,

very few spaces to be fully seen

I come from finance, economics, and international relations

I've worked in systems where decisions ripple across countries 

I've sat in rooms where what's unspoken carries more weight than what's said  

I've reinvented myself enough times to know how much courage it takes to jump into the deep end and begin again 

And I've seen how real change begins when we take the time to think

I listen fast. I'll name what others won't

And we'll stay with it - across strategy & execution, logic & emotion, the professional & personal

Until something profound shifts

Not ready to begin, but want to stay close? 

Are you ready to shift? 

From "I should do this on my own" to "I deserve the best support I can get"

Some clients start out treating our work like a "dirty secret". Almost like cheating. Later, they speak about it with pride. A marker of ambition, discernment, drive

Because like elite athletes, exceptional leaders know: Success isn't a solo game 

Not everyone gets it. But the ones who do go far
