Dr. Sarah Whyte watched brilliant leaders in the high-pressure business world hit the same wall: stress, reactivity, burnout. It is a cycle that undermines their wellbeing as well as their team’s engagement and the company’s bottom line.  Dr. Sarah experienced her own transformation from unconscious, reactive leadership to intentional, conscious performance, which exponentially boosted her professional and personal success. She now helps leaders in high-pressure environments make this critical shift more quickly, with tangible benefits for both wellbeing and performance.  This was the reason why Dr. Sarah developed the Conscious Leadership Advantage. This strategic framework, born from her doctoral research in emotional intelligence and deep expertise in psychology and neuroscience, equips leaders with actionable strategies to master their emotional responses, communicate with clarity, and build resilience.   The result? A move from stress-driven reactivity to intentional, high-impact leadership, developing teams that are 21% more profitable, with 41% less absenteeism and 59% less turnover (Gallup). Having engaged audiences in 25 countries, Dr. Sarah specialises in helping leaders in high-pressure sectors like tech, finance, and consulting move from stress-driven reactivity to sustainable peak performance. Through relatable stories that translate complex research into simple, powerful takeaways, her keynotes empower leaders’ achievement without sacrificing their wellbeing.
