Structure. Experience. Diligence.
About Lyda Modiano | Founder Wide Strategy Ltd.
Lyda is a seasoned communications strategist and professional facilitator who brings structure, clarity, and momentum to complex conversations.
With over 30 years of cross-sector experience - spanning leadership roles in banking, corporate affairs, and social impact - she helps organizations connect purpose with performance.
Her work is grounded in trust, fairness, and a belief that meaningful conversations can drive progress.
She knows how to create them.
“From moderating political strategy sessions early in my career to leading communications at a major European bank, I’ve seen firsthand how the right conversation —at the right time— can shift everything. Over three decades, I’ve advised CEOs, shaped strategies, and designed social impact programs across corporate, nonprofit, and startup worlds.
I founded Wide Strategy Ltd. to bring that experience to mission-driven teams navigating growth, complexity, or change. My approach blends strategic discipline with open dialogue — creating clarity, building trust and surfacing shared purpose. Every challenge becomes more solvable when people feel heard and respected. Progress begins not with answers but with better questions, better structure, and better conversations.”
