Level Five Executive, Inc.

Dr. Lola Gershfeld is a Founder and CEO of Level Five Executive, Inc, Board and Team Dynamics Specialist. She is best known for the originator of the Emotional Connection process or EmC, a groundbreaking and empirically supported approach, deeply rooted in attachment theory and the power of emotional connection. It seems strange that not too long ago that the idea, the concepts like having the need for connection with our team or board members were considered a sentimental weakness. What Lola did, thanks to the amazing work of theorists, researchers and psychologists, along with a powerful sense of mission and dedication, was able to bring the EmC process into the workplace and the boardroom, creating it safe for addressing emotions and the need for attachment as the very essence for improved engagement, collaboration, and performance.
Creating positive dynamics is not easy when you don’t have a map. EmC provides a clear step-by-step methodology to shape key relationships in a way that creates a strong partnership at the top.
Dr. Gershfeld has trained over 40 Certified EmC trainers and worked with over 200 cases using the EmC process helping leaders, boards, and teams in distress.
Dr. Gershfeld received her Doctorate in Organizational Psychology from University of the Rockies in Colorado, MA in Psychology from Pepperdine University, Malibu, and BA in Business from Cal State University, Fullerton. She published numerous articles and authored two books, Effective Board and Team Dynamics Guide and TRUSTMAKERS. She created tools for building trust and connection, such as the Be Cards and The Cycle of Interaction Worksheet. Her articles appeared in Forbes, The Corporate Board, Industry Week, Corporate Board Member, The CEO Magazine, Chief Executive Magazine, NACD Directorship, California CEO Magazine, CGMA, Accounting Today, Training Industry, and others.
