Meet your mentor
Luisa Hogan is a leadership strategist, speaker, and mentor known for her work on steady leadership in times of pressure and change.
Years ago, Luisa stepped into a CEO role at an organisation that was already failing. Despite months of effort to stabilise the organisation, the board ultimately made the decision to close it. Leading through that period reshaped how she understands leadership under pressure.
It was during those months that Luisa realised resilience is often misunderstood. Leadership is not sustained by powering through. It requires the ability to pause, regulate, and make deliberate decisions when everything feels uncertain.
That experience became the foundation of her philosophy: Steady Is the New Strong.
Today Luisa mentors founders and decision-makers who carry responsibility for complex decisions and organisational change. Her work focuses on helping leaders remain clear, composed, and steady when pressure rises.
Alongside her mentoring work, Luisa leads Vermelho, a consulting practice through which she and her associate consultants guide organisations through cultural transformation and change initiatives across Australia and internationally.
Over the past two decades Luisa has held senior roles including COO, Chief Development Officer, and CEO, working with leaders navigating high-stakes transitions and organisational change.
She holds an MBA, is an accredited Change and Resilience practitioner, and was a finalist in the AIM Leadership Excellence Awards. In 2025, she was awarded a Women's Impact Award by Womens Network Autsralia.
Through speaking, mentoring, and consulting, Luisa’s work centres on one goal: helping leaders stay steady under pressure so they can lead others through change with clarity and care.
Leadership today asks a great deal of people
You are expected to make clear decisions under pressure, carry responsibility for others, and navigate constant change.
Many leaders try to meet this moment by becoming stronger, working harder, or pushing through.
But leadership is not sustained by strength alone. It is sustained by steadiness.It is sustained by steadiness.It is sustained by steadiness.

Sarah M, Founder & Managing Director
"Luisa brings a rare mix of strategic insight and calm perspective. During a period of significant organisational change, she helped our leadership team step back, understand what was really happening in the culture, and move forward with clarity. Her approach is thoughtful, grounded, and incredibly practical. The work we did with her had a direct impact on how our leaders navigated pressure and communicated with their teams."
Melissa R, Executive Leader
"I’ve worked with a lot of coaches and advisors over the years, but Luisa’s approach feels very different. She doesn't rush to solutions. Instead she helps you unpack what's really going on and brings a perspective that only comes from having led through complex situations herself. Our conversations helped me steady my thinking at a time when everything felt uncertain. It was exactly the kind of support I needed."
