LIZZIE AZZOLINO
Board Director | Development Committee | Head of WIN Relay
Partner, Evolution
Lizzie Azzolino is a Partner at Evolution and a coach and advisor to visionary leaders navigating transitions that reach the level of core identity — from executive onboarding and reinvention to stepping into greater scope, visibility, and legacy impact. It’s her diverse background across brand and culture strategy, innovation consulting, integral coaching, and leadership development that allows her to integrate deep identity transformation, strategic clarity, and organizational context — to support defining moments that shape the future.
She believes the most transformative leaders are those who lead from the truth of who they are — and that inner knowing, not strategy alone, is the real lever for lasting innovation.
Prior to her career as a coach, Lizzie led strategy for companies including Nike, PayPal, Allbirds, Volkswagen, and SPANX — helping companies and cultures articulate who they are and create what’s next, inside and out. Her work now centers on aligning leaders with their unique voice, presence, and purpose. She’s a partner to leaders at Amazon, LinkedIn, Airbnb, CHANEL, Function Health, and other category-defining companies, and specializes in working with those building new models, navigating complex systems, or holding roles that don’t fit convention.
Lizzie is an ICF Master Certified Coach, former faculty member at the highly regarded coaching school New Ventures West, fellow at Harvard’s Institute of Coaching, and Board Director at Women in Innovation. She hosts the Now at Work podcast, holds advanced certifications in the Enneagram, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and organizational dynamics, and brings an intuitive, strategic, and deeply human presence to every engagement.
Based in Los Angeles with her Goldendoodle, Barkley, she works globally with clients committed to evolving what leadership — and work — can be.
