“She doesn't learn the energy sector — she lives it.”
20+ years operating inside oil & gas from midstream marketing at Connacher Oil and Gas through commercial strategy for energy clients at The van Hemert Group Ltd. Lisa understands the regulatory, commercial, and operational realities of energy from the inside out — exactly what boards need when overseeing management.
“The boardroom voice that connects strategy to revenue.”
Marketing backgrounds appear on 67 of 100 Fortune 100 boards — yet true commercial P&L leaders remain rare. As CCO at Lux Modus and President of The van Hemert Group Ltd, Lisa has spent her career turning commercial challenges into measurable growth. She brings the perspective boards need to challenge and support management on revenue, market positioning, and growth strategy.
“MBA-trained. Numbers-fluent. Board-ready.”
With an MBA from the Haskayne School of Business and 20+ years of financial analysis and revenue accountability, Lisa can engage with authority on capital allocation, risk management, and financial oversight — the functions that sit at the heart of board service.
“A North American perspective at exactly the right moment.”
As US-Canada energy trade, tariffs, and pipeline policy dominate board agendas in 2025–2026, Lisa's deep roots in the Canadian oil & gas sector give US boards a uniquely valuable cross-border perspective. She understands both markets, both regulatory environments, and both commercial landscapes.
