Innovation and Leadership: Insights from Lisa Levy
In this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge chats with Lisa Levy, Founder and CEO of Lcubed Consulting, about how innovation and self-reliant leadership can drive business success. Lisa brings over 16 years of consulting experience to the conversation, sharing her framework for empowering teams, streamlining operations, and fostering a culture of continuous innovation. Her story—intertwining a love of live music and her journey as a bold business strategist—offers valuable perspective for entrepreneurs navigating growth and transformation.
Building Empowered Teams and an Innovation-Driven Culture
Lisa opens up about one of her biggest passions: live music. As a lifelong groupie and advocate for joy outside of work, she shares how music fosters unity and serves as a powerful metaphor for teamwork and harmony in business. This sets the stage for the real focus of the conversation—how founders can let go of control, empower their people, and create businesses that grow without their constant oversight.
At Lcubed Consulting, Lisa helps founders overcome common delegation roadblocks, such as the fear of losing control or the belief that they are the brand. Her solution: teach leaders how to build self-reliant teams by instilling trust, clear communication, and accountability. She also introduces her “innovation engine” framework—a repeatable process that encourages idea generation, prioritization, and real-world testing to ensure businesses evolve with market demands.
Lisa’s approach isn’t about overhauling your company overnight—it’s about making intentional shifts that activate your team’s full potential. Whether you’re scaling operations or refining your strategy, her clarity calls and blueprint can help you uncover friction points and identify simple, high-impact changes.
