Taylor M. LaSane is a former Google senior change-management and communications leader, now the founder of SHYNE, where she helps high-achieving corporate leaders build purpose-driven careers and businesses without burning out.

Over nearly a decade at Google, Taylor guided senior leaders through high-stakes transformation, designed org effectiveness programs impacting 150,000+ employees, and coached over 50 executives on influence, storytelling, and sustainable organizational change. But even then, her brightest work was happening outside the office.

Three years before her exit, Taylor launched SHYNE, coaching corporate high-performers who wanted more than a title: clarity on their next move, confidence in their multifaceted identities, and the courage to act on their biggest ideas.

Today, as a twin mom who left a six-figure salary to build SHYNE full-time, Taylor is one of the few Black women operating at the intersection of corporate transformation, leadership development, and entrepreneurship — serving a multi-channel audience of 9,000+ with her proprietary frameworks and proving that the boldest moves often come when the stakes are highest.
