Sandra Geisler

Coach at LIGHTHORSE

My experience and deep interests:

• Strategy

I am based in: Amsterdam

I am passionate about unleashing the potential of leaders and organizations. I believe that each one of us can make a difference and reach desired outcomes if we learn how to be more true to ourselves and overcome limiting patterns.

For the last 15 years, I have been a trainer, consultant, and coach. I support senior leaders, top teams, and organizations in their transformation efforts. I have developed a powerful transformation framework that is impactful and leads to immediate lasting behavior change and reaching desired outcomes. By working with the mind and the body you will understand and experience what is going on and develop new behavior.

I have a background in performance and competence management, leadership development and strategies that create value. I have worked for KPMG and as director of Leaders for Nature IUCN. I worked with 20 well-known organizations in the Netherlands on executive board level, director level and professional level and supported their leadership and change efforts across the organization.

I have a master degree in organizational psychology and strategic management and studied at the University of Amsterdam and the University of California Berkeley.

I have mastered some sincere adversity in my life and therefore fully understand what overcoming setbacks and making choices is all about.  I am grounded, able to discuss ‘soft’ themes clearly and distinctly. I have an incredible observational capability also for what is happening below the surface. I am able to translate these observations and insights directly to the day-to-day reality and the issue at stake. I am open, straightforward, passionate and warm.

I love to spend time with close friends and family. I like to cook, organize salon gatherings, enjoy cultural performances. I like to be in nature, to ski, walking with my dogs and to ride my horses. I am eager to constantly grow as a person and professionally keep up with the latest.
