International Speaker
Are you looking for a speaker to inspire your audience and deliver engaging, valuable insights that leaves them with an uplifted, ‘can do’ attitude and actionable tools?
Sandja Brügmann is a sustainable leadership and communication strategist and thought-leader, international speaker and published author. Lederne (Danish leadership organization) names her one of the “world’s leadership gurus” 2016.
Sandja serves the global business community to create strong and magnetic brands and extraordinary leaders with an ambition and focus on growth, sustainability & exponential innovation for the past 18 years. As managing partner and founder of The Passion Institute her business portfolio includes respected companies like Sustainable Brands, Crocs, Spier, ITO EN, Promote Iceland, LEGO, Living Institute, Ledernes Kompetence Center, The Body Shop and University of Colorado Boulder.
Sandja advocates for systemic thinking to drive business to be part of the solution, investing in leadership and organizational consciousness and cultures, and a shift where success is measured in how a company is the best for the world through the 5P bottom line: Passion, purpose, people, planet and profit.
She is an external lecturer at University of Colorado Boulder’s Masters of the Environment program teaching conscious leadership, on the board of directors ‘brain trust’ of Leading Humans research by Orbesen, and lead The Future of Leadership masterclasses and transformational retreats. She facilitates Conscious Leadership at Inclusive Leadership by Living Institute serving private and public business leaders.
I am as comfortable delivering a speech to a large, international audience as I am a workshop to a small group of people.
People tell me that they love my talks because I have an ability to build compassionate, trusting bonds, both one-on-one and on from a stage. No matter the setting, it is always my goal to deliver uplifting content that leaves people feeling enthused and challenged with new perceptions and ways of approaching an issue, all while teaching with authority, passion, empathy, humility and professionalism – helping the audience to align with their vision and purpose, and walk away with a ‘can do’ attitude and actionable tools.
