About Me
Hi, I'm Laura Michelle Lidyard—an experienced communicator, strategist, and purpose-driven leader who believes that clarity, connection, and consistency are the keys to lasting impact.
With over two decades of experience in internal communications, learning and development, change enablement, and operational execution, I've led through seasons of rapid growth, crisis, transformation, and everything in between. I bring clarity to complexity, create alignment where there's friction, and design people-first strategies that drive real, measurable impact.
Whether shaping narratives during a crisis, launching large-scale training programs, or guiding leaders through change, I lead with empathy, action, and a deep belief in the power of communication to unlock potential. My passion lies in helping people see what's possible—even in the messy middle of change. I ask the questions that bring clarity, I design solutions that unlock momentum. And I partner with teams to align action with what truly matters.
What drives me? Helping people feel seen, heard, and equipped to lead. Building cultures where leaders thrive and teams stay connected to purpose. And bringing a strategic, grounded presence into the moments that matter most.
