With an intrepid spirit and strengths in management and executive leadership, architect Liza Ringdahl is a Technical Leader at Hayball.
A motivated achiever, Liza has been a Telstra Women in Business Awards finalist and received numerous accolades for achievements in the construction industry, including the NAWIC Laing O’Rourke Crystal Vision Award in 2015. (She’s also classically trained in ballet and as a pianist to concert standard!)
Liza applies research and neuro-scientific principles in her passionate exploration of design to influence learning and working experiences. Her interest in neuroscience and the cognitive benefits associated with a ‘sense of place’ adds exceptional value to workplace design, and education design for improved learning outcomes.
“It’s clear that employers are keen for individuals with advanced problem-solving skills, quality communication skills, and entrepreneurial spirit. It’s incredible how influential the field of educational architecture can be, providing settings for rich learning experiences to nurture this development.”
One of Liza’s most important values is working collaboratively.
“The collective mind is more powerful than the single mind. Both in my design leadership, and as a people leader, I focus on helping people to get along, feel valued and trusted. Happy people are usually more productive and creative.”
