Lisa YAMADA
BACKGROUND
Lisa graduated from Keio University with a degree in Business and Commerce.
She lived in New York for 12 years, receiving education in both Japan and the U.S. while traveling between the two countries. Through exposure to both cultures, she has gained a deep awareness of the challenges involved in uniting people with different backgrounds and perspectives toward a common goal, while maintaining mutual respect.
As she explored how to balance individuality with teamwork, she discovered coaching and became fascinated by its potential to drive results through communication. Through team sports such as lacrosse and field hockey, Lisa not only experienced the importance of individual strengths but also the cohesion, unified will, and significance of teamwork within a team.
Strongly resonating with COACH A’s systemic approach, she felt inspired by the possibility of helping individuals maximize their potential and achieve team success, which led her to join the company.
