Work with me directly.
No programme, no cohort, no curriculum. Two ways to put a question in front of somebody who has made the same move and spent years being the person on the other side of the table.
Two ways to work together
One decision · CHF 375
A Decision Call
Forty five minutes on the one thing in front of you with a date attached. You send me what you are weighing before we speak, so the time goes on the decision rather than on the background. Written observations follow. Take this when there is a single question, you want an answer this week, and you do not want anything ongoing.
Ongoing · CHF 500 a month
Monthly Advisory
Three written check-ins and one sixty minute call every month, three months to start. Send me the thing in the week it happens rather than saving it up, and get a considered answer back in writing. Take this when you are building, the decisions keep arriving between the conversations, and you went quiet for six weeks last time without noticing.
If you cannot tell which. Start with the call. It is the smaller commitment, it answers the thing in front of you, and if it turns out the question keeps coming back rather than being one question, we move you onto the monthly from there.
What people say
Three of the people I have worked with, in their own words.
I worked with Lisa Mayer over several months during a career transition, and it was genuinely useful. She brought an independent, outside read on my experience and how it holds up in the market, a well-benchmarked perspective that's hard to get from inside your own network. She was also a sharp sounding board, pressure-testing my thinking and sharpening how I frame my work across my CV, LinkedIn, and conversations with hiring managers. Structured sessions, clear written follow-ups, and direct, practical advice throughout.
I'm currently working with Lisa as I navigate my next career move, and I can't recommend her highly enough. Drawing on her corporate experience and coaching skills, Lisa brings valuable insight, perspective, and guidance to important career decisions. Her attention to detail and clarity of vision are exceptional. I look forward to continuing to work with Lisa beyond this transition, as she has become a trusted partner in helping me shape and navigate my longer-term career path.
I worked with Lisa on a recent career move and I couldn't recommend her more. Her previous corporate experience combined with excellent coaching and mentoring skills add huge value for anyone taking and acting on a major career decision. I will also continue working with Lisa in my new role.
Neither of these is a programme
If what you want is the whole thing built in order, with other people doing it alongside you, that is the 12-Week Studio. If you cannot yet say what you sell and to whom, neither of these has anything to hold on to. Start with the What should I sell?. And if you are not sure independent is the answer at all, start with what people would pay you for. It is free.
What neither of these is
I am a chartered management accountant, not a tax adviser, and I do not keep your books. This is your arithmetic on your own numbers, and I will not tell you what your number should be. If the answer needs somebody who knows your country's rules, get one. I am not a lawyer. I will not tell you what a contract is worth, whether to sign it, or how a clause would hold up. What I can tell you is how these decisions get made on the other side of the table, what is actually negotiable, and which questions are worth putting to somebody qualified.
Not sure either is right?
Email me and describe where you are in three sentences. I read every one and I will tell you honestly whether anything I do is relevant, including when the answer is no.
