What’s Wild Alchemy?

What’s Wild Alchemy?

Wild Alchemy is a catalyst for creative evolution. A way of thinking that transforms leaders, teams and brands through artistry, strategy and bold honesty — unlocking the magnetic energy that fuels success.

We ignite transformation with 10-degree shifts — small, deliberate recalibrations that unleash massive impact. With our direction, friction becomes flow, tension becomes trust and ordinary becomes inspired.

Because business is more than process and profit — it’s people. We bring energy, alignment and courage to rooms that feel heavy. Leaders leave feeling relieved, Teams leave feeling connected and everyone leaves lighter, braver, clearer and more inspired (some say they even fall in love with their jobs again.)

We don’t deliver theory -- we create an alchemic shift that turns your people into elite performers individually and collectively. It’s a matter of creating connective tissue through shared perspective, language, tools and expectations — and creating solutions in the room that everyone can rally around enthusiastically.

Our work with some of the biggest and best brands in the world — with many of the same issues — provides a toolkit of best practices and fabulous ideas that propel business forward. Most of the issues creative companies face are common — and we’ve found ways through that punch through — they’re proven.

We believe that the grass is greener where you water it, and we embed this idea across even your most jaded employees — shifting how everyone shows up and works together.

“Surround yourself with people who reflect who you are and who you want to be.

Energies are contagious.”

CREATIVE COMPANIES NEED A DIFFERENT KIND OF COACH.

You know how to make great work. Leading the people, decisions, and pressures around that work is a whole different challenge.

I’m Lynette Xanders, owner and Chief Strategist of Wild Alchemy. For more than 25 years, I’ve worked alongside creative agencies, independent creatives, organizations, corporations, leadership teams and executive groups, product, marketing, and innovation teams, universities, non-profits, and accelerators helping them turn messy challenges into clearer thinking, stronger teams, and work that moves forward. I know the pace, the personalities, and what it takes to lead when the answer isn’t obvious.

Executive coaching gives us space to work on your leadership: the decisions you’re carrying, the conversations you’re avoiding, the team dynamics you’re navigating, and the kind of leader you want to become. We’ll get specific, challenge what’s keeping you stuck, and turn insight into action you can use in the room.

If you’re ready for a thoughtful partner who understands the creative world, I’d love to hear what you’re working through.

our areas of expertise

Where We Play

By designing information to align teams, we set people and teams up to solve their own problems and ignite enthusiasm to change.

Leadership

By resetting leadership teams’ collective responsibilities and

talent assessments, they begin to work together in an integrated way (more autonomously) and

better manage their types of employees.

Brand

By determining why people love the brand and what makes it

unique, we identify the best way(s) to communicate to make

the brand magnetic (and how to innovate from strengths.)

People

By identifying the levers that drive your culture, we recalibrate

them to reduce friction, increase efficiency, productivity, creativity,

unity and happiness.

how we help

Things We Do

FACILITATED WoRKSHoPS

For teams that need to stop circling the issue and work through it together.

In short, my workshops work. Customized sessions blend practical tools, facilitated discussion, and in-room decision-making so teams leave with progress, not another document nobody opens.

Teams leave with a shared understanding and practical, actionable steps to put new habits to work. More importantly, they leave with a shared sense of purpose and excitement.

SPEAKING

For rooms that need more than inspiration.

Whether as a keynote or adjunct speaker at a conference, event, off site or retreat or as a training facilitator for a company or agency, I have helped up-level skills across a variety of topics and have had attendees LOVE the time we spend together.

These are inspirational sessions where my work with large, fabulous companies (and my delivery, of course), inspires people to listen and absorb best practices and lean into new habits immediately.

RESEARCH & STRATEGY

For moments when something important is forming, breaking, or asking to be redesigned.

Finding consumer insights that propel communications that create amazing brands is in my bones. I also develop insights form internal team discoveries that help companies and cultures get to ‘amazing’ better and faster than most anyone else who works in this space.

Enterprise & organizational Work

For organizations navigating growth, change, misalignment, or complexity.

Custom engagements help leadership, creative, marketing, product, and cross-functional teams create more clarity, stronger alignment, and real momentum.

1:1 & team Coaching

For leaders carrying real responsibility, complicated decisions, and approximately

47 competing priorities.

Structured 90-day coaching engagements create space for clearer thinking, cleaner decisions, and sustainable forward motion.

Books & Materials

For people who want my thinking in their hands and at their own pace.

A collection of books, workbooks, and digital resources designed to help leaders, strategists, and creative teams think more clearly, work with less friction, and turn ideas into action.

The Killer Briefs Course

For founders, strategists, and teams who want clearer thinking before the work begins.

If your message is muddy, your team is misaligned, or the work keeps missing the mark, my 3-part course is where to start.

the wild alchemy quiz

Take the Wild Alchemy quiz and find out where the friction is hiding.

Your team is busy. The ideas are there. So why does the work keep getting stuck in do-overs, endless conversations, or briefs that leave everyone guessing?

This quick quiz helps creative leaders spot what’s slowing their teams down and see where a small shift could make a real difference.

Killer Briefs weekly weBinar

Turn vague client requests into briefs your whole team can act on.

For over a decade, I've helped creative agencies and independent consultants write briefs that bring clients and teams into alignment. In this webinar, I’ll share the field-tested approach behind my Killer Briefs so you can give creative work a clearer direction from the start, reduce do-overs, and make room for better ideas.

WHAT YOU’LL GET

My clients love having a renewed sense of:

  • Clarity

  • Alignment

  • Inspiration

Across leaders, teams and/or the organization which leads to intangible improvements in integration, ease and happiness (which improves productivity, reduces friction and helps you win the war for talent.)
