Lisa J. Whaley is a bestselling author, a highly sought after public speaker, technology consultant, and a passionate powerful coach. She is the Founder and President of Life Work Synergy, LLC, a professional development company that helps individuals realize and achieve their full potential in every facet of their lives, based on their own choices. Previously, Lisa had a fulfilling and successful 22 year career with IBM where she was a Vice President.
Lisa has firsthand experience of how in the blink of an eye you can go from "poster girl or guy of success" to total personal and professional derailment. As a woman who appeared to "have it all", Lisa found herself in the "perfect storm of life" in 2002. While she was often perceived as having the epitome of a perfect life, she watched it unravel before her eyes. Life and work had become totally out of synch and out of control. After doing some deep soul searching, Ms. Whaley decided to take the necessary actions and to do the hard work to discover and accept who she was, who she wasn't, and who she might never be. Not only did she reclaim her spirit and put her life back in order, but using a very practical and disciplined approach, she found total fulfillment and happiness in all dimensions of her life — physically, emotionally and spiritually.
Lisa uses her own personal and professional experiences combined with proven methodologies to teach and motivate others how to achieve whatever it is they really want out of their lives and careers based on what the individual defines as success.
Ms. Whaley is the author of Reclaiming My Soul from the Lost And Found and Prisoners of Technology – Time to get UNPLUGGED. She's also a contributing author of Share Your Mission – The Personal Thoughts of 12 Great Americans Leading Mission Driven Lives and Chicken Soup for the African American Woman’s Soul. Lisa has appeared on numerous TV and radio shows across the country and was the guest life coach on several episodes of Retirement Living’s reality TV show, "What’s Next?" She has authored numerous articles on work/life issues, technology addition, and is often quoted by the media.
Lisa holds a BS degree in Business Management from Hampton University. She is a graduate of executive leadership symposiums from Harvard University and The Anderson Graduate School of Management at UCLA. She was recognized as a "Women Who Makes A Difference in Business" by Minorities and Women in Business Magazine and was selected as a "Woman of Excellence" by NAFE Magazine (National Association of Female Executives).
Ms. Whaley is truly living her best life ever based on her own choices and is passionate about helping others do the same.
