Stephen Landis
Stephen brings over 40 years of leadership and advisory experience, working with organisations across media, financial services, and advisory-led industries.
His background includes work with companies such as Time Warner, Citibank, and Barclays, as well as involvement in launching and scaling businesses, including a children’s publishing venture within The Walt Disney Company and a membership services organisation that grew to become one of the fastest-growing companies in the United States, culminating in a successful NASDAQ listing.

How this comes
together
Leadership development builds capability within the organisation.
Publishing and thought leadership extend that capability beyond the organisation, shaping how ideas are understood and how leaders are positioned in the market.
Mindshift Learning Company works at both levels. The focus is not only on developing leadership capability, but on ensuring that capability is applied, visible, and sustained over time.
Mindshift Publishing operates as an imprint of Mindshift Learning Company Ltd, supporting this work by helping leaders and organisations articulate and extend their thinking through structured publishing.
