Elise Sernik

Leadership Coach/Facilitator

Lumina Spark was one of the most useful tools we've ever completed. It gave the team insights into their own preferences and how they and others in the team respond under stress or if there is conflict.

2015 recognition by ICF NSW for contribution to the non-profit sector

Working with Elise and her team has been excellent. Our organisation was ready to tackle some big questions, and their guidance and skill helped us to navigate those big questions more constructively and creatively than we ever would’ve been able to do otherwise.
They understand the impact space and the non-profit sector so well that no time is wasted having to ‘set the scene’, allowing for the real work to get done. Their non-judgemental and insightful support is a testament to their skill, knowledge and passion for helping organisations that do good do it even better.

Monique Ribeiro,
CEO, The Walter and Eliza Hall Trust

Working with my coach has been transformative. She helped me prepare for the transition to the CEO role and supported me through my first 90 days and beyond. I felt that I could be vulnerable and open, and she engaged with curiosity and encouragement. This transition was the steepest learning curve of my career; my coach was there to support me through the ups and downs. After every session I walked away with plenty to think about as well as clear actions to put into practice. I would highly recommend.
