Alex Lazarus works with boards, General Counsel and senior executive teams to strengthen judgement, exercise influence with integrity, and navigate high-stakes transitions where power, reputation and performance intersect.

A business psychologist and former Fortune 500 senior leader, Alex is Founder and CEO of Lazarus & Maverick, a leadership and board advisory consultancy. She works directly with executive teams to improve decision-making quality and team dynamics, supports senior leaders stepping into broader mandates or new roles, and partners with organisations building cohesive, high-performing leadership teams. Her work spans executive coaching, succession readiness, leadership development and culture alignment during periods of growth and transformation.

Her clients span Fortune 500 and FTSE 100 organisations, established global brands, leading professional services firms and venture-backed high-growth start-ups. Clients include S&P Global, AIG, KPMG, LVMH Group, Qualcomm, Disney, Adobe, University College London and others.

Her work is grounded in the Choice–Character–Connection framework, a practical model for strengthening leadership maturity under pressure, enhancing collective judgement, and improving influence across complex systems.
Alex was a lead contributor to Leading with Influence, based on interviews with over 30 global General Counsel and a survey of nearly 120 senior executives. Her writing on diplomacy as a leadership capability has been published in Leader to Leader.
