AUTHENTIC LEADERS
CHARLOTTE SØNDERGAARD
Charlotte Søndergaard
Owner and Founder of Authentic Leaders
I am a Leadership Coach, facilitator, and speaker dedicated to helping leaders unlock their full potential. At the core of my work is authentic, strengths-based leadership, empowering individuals to thrive in leadership roles or step into leadership positions. I firmly believe that self-awareness is the foundation of a successful leadership journey.
As one of the leading strengths coaches in the Nordic region, I hold an MSc in Applied Positive Psychology from the University of East London and a BSc in Communication from Aalborg University. I am also certified as a Systemic Coach, LEGO® Serious Play® Practitioner, and Design Thinking Practitioner. My expertise lies in helping leaders embrace their authentic power, leverage their strengths, act with intentionality, take ownership of their future, and cultivate psychologically safe cultures.
Notably, I had the honor of serving as Denmark’s first Human Capital and Diversity Lead, where I was a pioneer in Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DEIB) at Accenture. In this role, I played a key part in shaping a strengths-based culture and developing inclusive strategies and initiatives — delivering measurable, high-impact results.
I collaborate with leading organizations and have a proven track record of driving real, lasting change. Explore more about my work and read testimonials. You’re more than welcome to contact me if you’re interested in collaboration or would like more information.
