AUTHENTIC LEADERS
CHARLOTTE SØNDERGAARD
Becoming an Authentic Leader
‘The 'Becoming an Authentic Leader' program encourages leaders to be true to their authentic selves, develop their leadership identity, own their careers, and be intentional. The program acts as a catalyst for daring to explore and develop one's authentic leadership identity and aspirations.
The program supports participants who want to develop as leaders, aiming for promotions to leadership positions and achieving a more meaningful career with healthy boundaries and well-being, together with like-minded leaders and a sponsor. It supports organizations in achieving more diversified leadership and a psychologically safe culture where all individuals can feel a sense of belonging.
It delivers impactful return on investment for both the participants and the organization.
The program enhances self-development, self-awareness, and self-compassion:
-
Develop your own authentic leadership identity.
-
Give and receive feedback.
-
Enhance well-being and stop overthinking.
-
Lean into your strengths and potential.
-
Create your own safe space.
-
Unlearn behaviors and thought patterns that no longer serve you.
-
Be purpose- and value-driven.
-
Become a natural influencer who acts strategically.
The program will empower the participants as leaders through a 1:1 strength profile session, two 2-day masterclasses, and four individual coaching sessions. Furthermore, they will have the opportunity to be inspired by authentic and successful leaders from leading organizations across the Nordic region (e.g., LEGO, VELUX, Microsoft, DNB & Deloitte) in webinars and learn together with a group of like-minded leaders.

Lilly Thérèse Doringer, Senior Manager at Deloitte Sweden: We often strive after perfection, seeking competition and assume certain behavior and traits are just “normal”. But what is actually “normal”, especially in regard to leadership? If you strive after:
-
Challenging the “normal” and want to understand how society has changed regarding leadership.
-
Understanding your strength.
-
Wanting to experience a new mindset.
-
Enhancing your skills of being your authentic self.
-
Balance your private and work-life.

Estefania Montano, Manager at Deloitte Sweden: It is a fantastic leadership program that help you capitalize on your own ideas and personalize your own growth as an individual and leader. I loved that this program is designed for a group of female leaders but at the same time enable individual reflection and development. During the individual coaching sessions and masterclasses Charlotte was able to enable a safe environment where we could share, learn, and feel empowered. Finding the pieces in order to see beyond conventional norms and develop our authentic leadership style. Identify possible obstacles that we face as women in organizations, which we deep down might be aware of, but often prefers to ignore.
