She has spent 14 of these years based in Asia (Beijing, Sydney, and Singapore). Before her role as the APAC Managing Director for CCL, Elisa served as the Mainland China Director and Head of Executive Development for a talent development firm, Management Development Services (MDS). Before MDS, Elisa spent over ten years at Accenture, working as a talent and organization consultant for Accenture’s New York, London, and Beijing offices. Elisa, who split time growing up between Miami, Florida, and Athens, Greece, has lived in multiple countries in four continents and is passionate about leading with an inclusive and global mindset.

Elisa joined CCL in 2019 as the Managing Director and Vice President, Asia-Pacific. In her role, she leads CCL’s efforts in SE Asia, India, North Asia, and Australia to accelerate the leadership development and results of clients throughout the region, from multi-national corporations and government agencies to domestic organizations, while also contributing significantly to CCL’s global research agenda.

In an exclusive interview, Elisa shares some insights on what it takes to support Asian leaders to break through the ‘bamboo ceiling’ and better support organizations that would like to be ‘truly global’. As Asia becomes the center of the world, what are the skill and mindsets that leaders must possess to accelerate success and create positive impact not only in their own country and region, but across the world.
