Lisa Thompson has been a trusted advisor, growth expert, and confidant in my work across three industries and organizations. She has organized projects spanning “tactical execution” to “broad-based industry insight and strategy development”. Lisa takes time to understand both the content and context of industry scenarios, and proactively recognizes the impact of organizational practices and policies on strategy implementation. She consistently focuses on the best interests of the business and the client, and works tirelessly to create relationships that transcend projects to inspire long term value creation.

When it comes to value-based commercial transformations there are numerous consultants that talk a good game, but Lisa helped us develop unique insights from initial marketing and pricing strategies all the way to sales force training for practical implementation that helped us significantly expand margins ... an ability to listen and then customize a program to fit our situation differentiated her from other ‘one size to fit all’ consultants we considered.

I partnered with Lisa on a complex new market introduction and was impressed with every aspect of what she delivered. She always treated me like a customer and helped my team create solutions to better serve our customers. She has a unique ability to get up to speed quickly and led us to solutions like she had worked for our company and in our industry for years. She transitioned easily from applying tools and processes to brainstorming solutions to playing the role of a senior advisor. Her 20+ years of experience solving clients’ problems positioned her well to exceed my expectations. I am glad to speak to anyone who wants to know more about what I think of Lisa and the value she provides.

Lisa Thompson is a big strategic thinker with the ability to develop executable strategies. I learned a lot from her about measuring the true profitability of customers by assessing the cost to serve customers. She is very client-focused and driven by deriving real outcomes for her clients. Lisa is one of the few consultants where you will see a measurable payback on the work she does.

I have worked with Lisa, first as her employer, later as a colleague and dear friend, for two decades. While most of us build a reputation for expertise in working with ideas or in working with people, Lisa’s unusual strength is in managing both simultaneously. Her concern for the welfare of clients and colleagues makes them more open to what can be difficult but necessary advice to hear. Her commitment to finding the best answer for her client is rooted in a desire to be a positive force for the benefit of others. The result is someone whose combination of insight and honesty is extraordinary!
— Tom Nagle, PHD, Author of "The Strategy and Tactics of Pricing"

Lisa has provided exceptional leadership and guidance to us throughout the development and execution of our new pricing and contracting strategy. This new approach has resulted in over $100M incremental profit for our business. She and her team worked with us in 2006 to develop this new approach. Lisa is great at relating to people and helping them to see what truly adds business value. I highly recommend her.
— Dennis Preusker, Vice President, Marketing, Fresenius Kabi USA

Lisa demonstrated an excellent ability to bring together multiple functions within our organization to successfully implement an enterprise-wide value and pricing strategy. She led her team to move us from a intuitive and reactive process to a strategic and proactive to more effectively positioning our value and being able to charge for it. The result is our ability to maintain higher price points than our competitors and still be awarded business because the buyer recognized more value in our proposals; we still enjoy that market leading price/value position today.
— Kurt Anderson, Sr. Vice President & General Manager, EXL Services

Lisa and her team helped us with value-based pricing which resulted in significant profitability opportunities for our company. She led us through a proactive scenario planning approach and strategy which we have completed and deployed successfully. She listens well and helps you challenge your thinking! Excellent value.
— Barbara M. Hill, former President, Baxter Canada

I hired Lisa to help develop a more strategic pricing approach to how we engaged with our largest clients. Lisa helped us develop a solid go to market strategy based on the true economic value we delivered to our clients. She helped us focus on the most important service attributes and differentiating factors compared to the next best competing alternatives. Lisa is a very open communicator who can work well across the entire organization, building positive relationships. I would hire Lisa again.
— Steven Flack, Chief Financial Officer at Lightwave Dental

Lisa is an expert in the field of strategic pricing. I invited her as a guest speaker to my BU MBA elective course on “Pricing Strategy and Tactics” and witnessed her fascinating my students with her experience and creative thinking in strategic pricing. Her expertise also shows up in the way she addresses student questions. I highly recommend her as a pricing expert and as a speaker. In short, Lisa is a pleasure to work with.
