About Lisa Worthington

With over 20 years of experience in strategic communications, I am a passionate storyteller and a communications leader who has led high-impact initiatives across a range of industries, including telecommunications, gaming, entertainment, and AI. I\'m currently the SR Director of Internal Communications, Content and Digital Platforms at T-Mobile, where I lead a team of over 50 amazing people. In this role, I lead our company\'s enterprise employee comms strategy, digital content teams (the backbone of our company, fueling our frontline\'s information and resources), and lead our business strategy for Magenta Pulse, our newly launched modern intranet platform, built with AI, to support the needs of our vast employee base.In my previous roles, I have built comprehensive communications programs to effectively earn customer trust and develop brand affinity, managed teams and resources to deliver results, developed thought leadership strategies, and led global launches at Fortune 100 companies such as Amazon and Microsoft, as well as innovative start-up companies like Aurora. I have also been a key contributor to executive leadership teams, working with leaders at the highest company level. My background in narrative development, internal and external communications strategies, writing, brand, media and analyst relations, exec communications, and management is complemented by my two Bachelor of Arts degrees in Business Administration and Communications from the University of Washington.My professional philosophy is that managers focus on tactics and output, while leaders inspire others to deliver game-changing results. Leaders care about the whole human, not just the work, and coach to exceed expectations. I am driven by the mission of empowering creators to realize their vision and make the world a better place through interactive experiences. I am always eager to learn, grow, and collaborate with talented and diverse teams who share the same passion and values.
