ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Lisa Sisson
Lisa Sisson, is a woman on a mission.
As founder of risk consultancy, Unearth, Lisa is driven by a strong sense of purpose, to create a safer world. She believes when people feel safe, they are empowered to give their best efforts without fear of failure.
This purpose inspires her work at Unearth, her speaking and this, her first book. It offers a unique perspective within an industry that is heavily process and technology driven, making her somewhat of a “Risk Rebel”.
A backdrop of a successful career spanning three decades, from security to technology and services working for global brands and niche specialised companies, earnt her a reputation for tackling the hard problems that most shy away from.
In 2013 she launched Unearth, where she works with national security, emergency services and some of Australia’s largest commercial brands. Today Lisa helps leaders who feel distracted and overwhelmed with “managing risk”, by demystifying and tackling risk within their organisation.
