With 30 years of experience from both sides of the table, I have the good fortune to have made almost all the mistakes I advise my clients on today. I have been blessed with people around me in my career that have had a genuine interest in my personal growth and development, and now I want to pay it forward. I have found my purpose in sharing my learnings through my consulting practice.
My current personal development focus
Committing to and living my life purpose daily presents me with new challenges and insights that remind me that I will always only aspire to my purpose.
The journey of learning and expanding my world view never ends, and all I can do is to strive to live authentically with integrity and curiosity and to be inspired by everything around me so that I may:
Humbly stand in my power to share wisdom.

I bring years of professional expertise and a deeply personal commitment to conscious leadership and meaningful change. With 20 years of experience in the public sector, including nearly 7 years in central government, I have held leadership positions and worked as a consultant focusing on transformation, strategy development, communication, leadership training, and facilitation.
My journey has been shaped by a curiosity for life’s big questions, a drive for personal growth, and a desire to contribute to a better world. This has given me a broad set of approaches to navigate today’s complex challenges. With a background in both natural sciences and philosophy, combined with in-depth knowledge of political organizations and advanced training in leading transformational change and vertical development, I bring a unique perspective to leadership and organizational development.
For me, leadership is deeply personal and relational. I am passionate about helping leaders and organizations find alignment between purpose, connection, and impactful actions. Authentic leadership is not just about achieving results—it’s about developing as a conscious individual while fostering trust, collaboration, and growth in others.
I believe conscious leadership starts with self-awareness and evolves through meaningful relationships. My approach is rooted in co-creation, empowering individuals and teams to thrive amidst today’s complexities. At the heart of building constructive cultures lies dialogue: how we communicate, whether we truly listen, or whether we aim to win the conversation or “fix” the other. Leaders shape the organization culture through their interactions, and understanding this impact is key to achieving sustainable results.
My strength lies in creating space for honest dialogue and fostering trust, enabling individuals to show up authentically and unlock their potential.
My current personal development focus
I trust and respect my authentic self. My personal practice is about embracing my way of being in this world, imperfections included, standing strong in my own voice, and trusting the wisdom within to remain grounded, clear, and purposeful as I navigate life.

I have over 20 years of consulting experience and have worked with change leadership, strategy, organisational development, leadership development, culture, and operational optimisation across various industries and sectors.
The many years of both failures and successes have been my conscious learning journey in understanding the underlying dynamics in teams and people relationships. This foundation is vital for me in leading transformation and having a positive impact on people and organizations.
My current personal development focus
Prioritizing my own personal development is key in my role as a coach for others. I know that I need to be in constant development to do my best work as a coach, and I also know that leaders need to be conscious of their own personal development to succeed in transforming organizations.
My current focus is to stand tall as a leader and executive coach. I acknowledge that at times, my way of being and engaging is sometimes influenced by past patterns of lacking consciousness in the moment. I continuously challenge my ability to be open to new perspectives and conscious about how my old way of thinking is influencing my curiosity.

With more than 30 years of experience in leadership positions and 25 years as a leadership consultant, my field of expertise has evolved around facilitating transformational changes spurred by such needs as creating and implementing new strategies, developing leadership capabilities, and increasing individual and organizational sense-making and value creation.
Assisting organizations in unfolding their full human potential by creating constructive, developing, and engaging cultures is what drives me. Cultures where people thrive in meeting the challenges of complex internal and external realities. Cultures where people come together to create opportunities and value for all stakeholders. Cultures that aspire to create personal and professional growth for everyone affiliated.
Leaders play a key role in creating such cultures. That is one of the challenging gifts of being a leader. Therefore, I work with leaders and leadership teams on all levels to help them fully realize their potential to be a force for constructive development.
It all begins with conscious awareness of the quality of relations between people. Do our ways of being together lead to constructive growth for us all? If not, something profound must change. My purpose is to be an agent for that change.
My current personal development focus
Current status: Physically, I am beginning an arduous journey of getting back in shape after the big Corona disruption. Intellectually I am studying various individual and organizational levers for vertical development. Emotionally, I practice robustness and equilibrium when feeling discomfort during my personal development processes. Spiritually I have stopped for breath before the next wave of inspiration.

I have had many roles throughout my life, regardless of my role I am always a HUMAN BEING first. I am grateful to have found my tribe where I can continue to develop and grow while I live my purpose.
My purpose is to connect and nurture consciousness.
After 10+ years as a leader and over 20 years in consulting, I feel driven to apply my experience and skills to help organisations who truly strive to transform.
I believe leadership and culture can make or break any strategy and the leader's most critical task is creating healthy and developing relationships within their organization or team. When people work in developing, constructive cultures, everything else falls into place with much greater ease. Therefore, I insist on addressing cultural change, leadership development, and personal development as an integrated part of addressing my clients' most important business priorities. When we succeed here, the results are always exponentially greater, and much more satisfying for all.
My approach is to see and address the organization as a whole, and not just one piece of the puzzle. My broad background allows me to do this integrating traditional consulting interventions with cultural and people approaches to ensure the whole organization is changed sustainably in the most effective manner.
My current personal development focus
I am currently working on increasing my impact by increasing my confidence and clarity in my communication of what I see and how I can impact the most important agendas at all levels in the organisations I work with.
Compassion and Wisdom are the drivers I am using to step into this way of being. When I am able to do this, I am truly using all of me in service of my purpose with the greatest impact on the world.

I have a background in psychology and business, along with years of experience as a project manager and facilitator. In collaboration with my clients and colleagues, I bring presence, positive energy, and curiosity. At the same time, it comes naturally to me to bring structure and action to any visionary project.
At the heart of my work is my passion for authentic connection and self-expression—helping people connect more deeply with themselves, with each other, and with a greater sense of purpose. I believe that this connection is nourished by being part of conscious communities and cultures. Building these kinds of cultures is what makes me so proud to be part of Conscious Consulting!
My current personal development focus
Balancing my energy between doing and being. Many years in a competitive educational system and corporate culture have led me to become a strong doer. I recently took a sabbatical to properly learn how to rest. Now my focus is on integrating the two energies and creating a life where doing and being work together, allowing me to effortlessly shift between the two. Besides that, I am training to become a coach, which invites me to explore my own thought patterns and shadows even more deeply.

My passion is to help individuals, teams and organisations find, materialise and live their purpose. Human relations are to me the single most important condition for success in an organisation.
I have 20 years of experience as a senior leader and consultant working within the fields of change leadership, strategy implementation, operating models, organisational development and cultural development.
I insist on co-creation with my clients and value trust as a fundamental prerequisite for a successful shared journey towards purpose, meaning and results. I speak the truth I see and advise and do what is needed to take the next step.
My current personal development focus
“I’m brave” in the sense that I listen, speak and act according to my intuition, integrity and love.

With 25+ years of experience as a director/leader and consultant, I have a humble but good understanding of the conditions for leaders.
I have had the privilege to work with almost all sizes of companies in Denmark and globally.
Over the years, I have learned that relationships, culture, and behavior are more important than anything else.
When relations and trust work well together, you can succeed in almost everything else - like Jim Collins says, "WHO first, then WHAT".
My strengths are the ability to understand complex issues and then “build bridge” between individuals, management teams, organizations, culture, strategy, and results.
My passion is to work with customers and colleagues who want to create long-term relations and results through greater awareness.
My current personal development focus
Overall, my personal development is all about becoming a little bit wiser every day - on myself, other people, and not least about life in general.
My current development focus is to learn to live with my personal DOUBTS. It can be doubts regarding my beliefs, my behavior, my intuition etc.
To work with this, I am aware of being curious, challenging myself, inviting others to challenge me, etc.
It can now and then be scary, but also funny. It is probably a lifelong learning process...

I feel most energized when I work with leaders and teams to help them grow their awareness and practice of conscious leadership in their unique and often complex organizational contexts.
I believe that all of us have deeply ingrained patterns of thinking, that subtly shape our sense of who we are, and the possibilities we see for ourselves and others. While these beliefs may have served us well at a particular point of time, they become limiting as we grow and evolve in our roles. Once these beliefs are visible and held up for exploration , their hold on us loosens and new ways of responding to challenges can emerge.
In recent years, I have partnered with CEOs, C-suite executives, entrepreneurs and their teams from corporate, non-profit, and purpose driven companies in growing their leadership capacity in complex contexts across India, Europe, US, and Africa.
I bring 20+ years of lived experience of - being part of small founding teams of several organisations and then leading them to scale and growth, in service of their business potential, keeping people and culture as paramount.
As a leadership coach, I am a certified Growth Edge Coach, Leadership Circle Profile™️ Coach and also hold a PCC credential from ICF. I also serve as a pro bono executive coach for The Women’s Impact Alliance, USA, and the Cartier Women’s Initiative.
My current personal development focus
I am on a journey of exploring what is the life in me that is currently unlived and what is holding me back in giving it space and expression.
This inquiry helps shine light on some blind spots - unhelpful patterns of thinking of myself in relation to others, awareness of existential fears and insecurities that trigger my contracted/lesser sense of self.
In the process I am re-discovering the power of my inner compassionate audacity and allowing it to direct how I am being with myself, others, wherever I am in a moment of time.

I care about supporting leaders and organisations to truly thrive and be their best version, and that is at the heart of my work. I help leaders to grow so they are able to deal with all the complexity that is thrown their way. And I support organisations to be spaces where each of us can thrive, individually and collectively – where we can show up in our full humanity, be courageous AND loving, and do our best work.
I have ~25 years of experience consulting and leading organisations, and have worked in the areas of strategy, learning, human development, organization-building, assessment, and change and transformation of large systems. Purpose and potential have been central themes in my work over all these years.
My current personal development focus
I am noticing more and more the places where I think in either-or ways, and am trying to grow my ability to live into the AND. One of the polarities I often reflect on is the seemingly opposing pulls to enjoy the world, and to improve it – and I am learning to embrace both in the same moment.

I am learning to detach myself from the outcome, and focus on what’s important in the moment, and in my control
On another level, I am attempting to rediscover my childhood prowess on the Table Tennis table, with much joy and frustration.

With over three decades of experience across diverse industries, I’ve seen the transformative power of human-centered leadership and purpose-driven transformation. My journey has been one of continuous learning, fueled by exceptional individuals who inspire me to grow. I now focus on fostering meaningful change by co-creating solutions that align with organizational purpose and values.
My passion for fly fishing deeply influences my leadership approach. Preparing for a fishing expedition—tying flies and researching the river—mirrors the importance of preparation and understanding the environment. Crafting a strategy for fishing the river’s pools reflects thoughtful planning and adaptability, key qualities needed to navigate complex systems. Implementing the strategy while responding to ever-changing conditions highlights the value of agility and presence. Finally, reflecting on lessons learned and applying those insights parallels my commitment to continuous growth, both personally and professionally.
At the core of my work is a belief in authentic relationships, trust, and collaboration. Whether guiding leadership development, facilitating cultural transformation, or supporting strategic growth, I strive to create environments where individuals and teams thrive, connect, and unlock their full potential. Leadership, like fly fishing, is a journey of curiosity, reflection, and alignment with purpose, leaving a meaningful and lasting impact.
