Lis bio
With over 20 years of experience as an ICF and EMCC-qualified coach, I now specialise in positive leadership, strengths-based development, and workplace wellbeing. Currently pursuing an MSc in Applied Positive Psychology, Organisations, and Leadership, I combine evidence-based research with practical strategies to help leaders and teams build resilience, develop positive communication, and thrive.
​
As a multi-award-winning and TEDx speaker, I’ve delivered hundreds of keynotes, training programmes and coaching sessions.
​
I believe people excel when they play to their strengths, not when they’re constantly told what their weaknesses are. That’s why I help organisations move from deficit-focused cultures to strengths-driven leadership, where wellbeing fuels performance and resilience drives success.
Through consulting, training, speaking and coaching, I empower leaders and teams to lead with confidence, clarity, and impact.
A bit more about me...
I’m Lis Cashin – consultant, speaker, facilitator, coach – but more than that, I’m someone who’s passionate about creating lasting, positive change. My journey has taken me from boardrooms to the backstreets of India, from keynote stages to quiet moments of reflection on mountain trails.
Along the way, I’ve learned that personal transformation doesn’t just happen in the big moments – it’s in the everyday choices we make to grow, connect, and lead with intention.
​
After a rewarding career in wellbeing and personal development, I wrote a best-selling book that shares part of my own story – a journey through trauma to thriving. I’ve spent the last two decades learning, unlearning and leaning into what it means to be human at work. That includes studying applied positive psychology, coaching hundreds of leaders and teams, and partnering with organisations around the world to build workplaces where people can truly flourish.
​
I believe that thriving cultures don’t come from ticking boxes – they’re shaped by courageous conversations, compassionate leadership, and a commitment to doing things differently. That’s what I bring to every keynote, workshop or coaching session – evidence-based insights, human connection, and the energy to make change feel possible.
