Lizzie Palmer

Lizzie Palmer left 3 years of beer, fun and a degree in politics from Bristol, to join the rough, tough world of advertising at O&M. After 4 agencies, 8 years and an increasing number of ridiculous names, she decided that too many initials (O&M, BBH, LSDC, SPCTDL!) weren't good for her.

Her eclectic taste in music, and love of teeny boy bands led the poacher to become a gamekeeper, and in 1994 she joined Capital Radio as Head of Marketing, Events and PR. Two years later she became Marketing Director. She then worked on a contract basis at Channel 4, and Discovery Channel (as their Vice President of Consumer Marketing), before joining Orange as Head of Brand Marketing for the UK. She became Director of Worldwide Brand Strategy, Development and Communications for Orange in 2001.

In October 2003, the lure of working for herself and helping others through training and consultancy became too much and she is now a partner of On Your Feet a blend of business and the arts which helps companies with improving communication, relationships and creativity.
Lizzie has worked with, amongst others, the Alliance & Leicester, Philips, Saatchi and Saatchi. She facilitates workshops for On Your Feet in London and else where. When not working, you can find her on the massage table, cleaning her chakras and doing a little retail therapy.

She was among the speakers at the Improvisation in Business conference in San Francisco in October 2004.
