I’m Laurie Roberts-


founder of Leadership Compass, passionate about people, creative with approaches, and known for bringing energy and insight to every conversation.


I help professionals at all levels uncover what drives their leadership style, build the language to express it, map out practical next moves, and communicate with purpose. Whether you’re an emerging leader or a seasoned executive, I help you identify preferences and motivations to start showing up with more clarity and confidence.

My approach blends strategic insight from neuroscience and psychometric tools with down-to-earth communication tactics that stick. I balance compassion with challenge—tuning in quickly to spot patterns, ask questions to get to the heart of the matter, and help you move forward with intention.

If you’re ready to lead in a way that feels like you—with more clarity, alignment, and impact—I’d love to connect.

Expertise & Experience

Traditional methods not working for you? My coaching is informed both professionally and personally with neurodivergent and executive functioning research. I honor different processing styles, recognize the pressure to perform in neurotypical systems, and offer coaching that supports how your brain naturally works.

My work is grounded in:

  • Jung’s Theory of Psychological Preferences
  • Holland’s Theory of Career Motivations
  • Neurodivergent-informed methods
  • Intentional career exploration
  • De Bono’s Parallel Thinking approach
  • Behavioral Change and Habit models
  • Fascinate Communication Advantage system
  • Adult Learning models
  • People, Process, Technology alignment
  • Core Energy alignment
  • Modern job search strategies and materials

And shaped by real-world experience in:

  • Marketing & Communications
  • Legal & Compliance
  • Human Resources & Employee Development
  • Project & Program Management
  • Field Leadership & Team Operations
  • Entrepreneurship & Business Growth
  • IT & Operations Enhancements
  • Career Transitions & Talent Mobility
  • Change Management Implementation
  • Working mom value-based decisions
  • Neurodivergent relationships
