Testimonials
Raul Gonzalez-Lorente
“I met Lissa Druss in 2016 and I had the pleasure to receive her advice until 2018. A mutual business friend introduced me to her. He had known her for many years. I still remember his words: “She is the best.” At the beginning I was a bit skeptical. I have been a senior manager of different large companies based in Spain, looking to enter the U.S. market. Thus, I had plenty of experience working with several global advisors and consultants. How could Lissa be better than global firms? After working with Lissa, I can say that she demonstrates the most valuable facet of an advisor: commitment. From day one I could see how she was involved 100% in every subject. First, she doesn’t stop until she understands the goals (short term and long-term) and then the corporate philosophy. She was part of our company helping us reach our goals and coming with out-of-the box ideas. She really was one of us. She knows her job and has a level of experience and expertise extremely valuable for any company.”

“I want to take this opportunity to thank you for the magnificent job you did by revising my curriculum vitae. Thank you so very much for your work and for the energy you put into getting it right. I am sincerely grateful for this revised description. Your generosity and talent have made me a lifetime fan.”
Mayor Frank Trilla Willowbrook, IL
“Hiring Lissa Druss may be the best decision I have made in eight years of being mayor of Willowbrook. Our situation called for local, state, and federal assistance, and we needed it yesterday. With the assistance of Lissa and her contact list, which I refer to as the Eighth Wonder of the World, we were on our way to understanding the situation, setting a game plan, and effectively conveying the information to the public in an efficient, transparent, and professional manner. It was a monumental effort-the only one of its kind in the nation. I would bet on Lissa Druss 24 hours a day because that’s how she works.
Thank you, Ms. Druss, for all you did to help our town.”
Bonnie Jordan, Executive Director of Philip J Rock Center and School
We would not have a new Philip J. Rock Center and School without Lissa and her team. She taught me how to advocate and was instrumental in getting the Rock on the CDB project list. She grew up with Phil's kids. If I need help, I always go to Lissa. She is my hero and a critical member of the Rock as well as the Rock family. I would take a bullet for this woman. If Lissa is busy, my next Strategia go-to person is Tom Cullerton. When I go to Springfield and need help navigating the political mazes there, Tom helps me get through with knowledge and humor. He was instrumental in helping us get our school code changes to support more students. Team Strategia provides honest communication and tremendous support. They are compassionate, empathetic, caring, and not afraid to speak the truth.”
