Sandra Sieb

Sandra is driven by a simple conviction: that more awareness, purpose and courage in an organisation is what lets it navigate real complexity. Paired with genuine inquiry and active listening, those are the conditions for quality relationships - and for the kind of courageous conversations most teams quietly avoid.

She started in management consulting at Booz Allen & Hamilton in New York - now Strategy& - running large strategy, operations and organisation programmes across industries. It built a structured, analytical mind and a high tolerance for ambiguity. After moving to Australia she turned that lens on leadership itself, completing a Master of Coaching Psychology at the University of Sydney.

Today she blends the coach and the consultant, designing leadership-development journeys for C-suite executives and their teams: sharpening strategic and systems thinking, broadening emotional range, and building the trust that lets collective intelligence actually surface.

Her practice is grounded in psychology and a therapeutic sensibility. She works with what sits beneath the surface, the patterns, fears and defences that quietly shape how a leader shows up, holding a safe and confidential space where people can meet the harder truths and turn that awareness into changed behaviour. Alongside her coaching-psychology training she draws on somatic and mindfulness-based practice, so the work reaches the body and the nervous system, not just the intellect.

Her edge is helping leaders find clarity in complexity. Real empathy means she can challenge hard without it landing as an attack; a pragmatic mind keeps the work grounded and useful. She connects quickly, at every level of an organisation.

Raised in Egypt, educated in France, career launched in New York, settled in Sydney - Sandra knows change from the inside. Recent clients include Air Liquide, CEVA Animal Health, ICAP, Air France and NSW Health, and she has been Adjunct Faculty at AGSM (UNSW) on High Performing Teams.

Her longstanding interest in human development and developmental theory has shaped much of Sandra’s work, including her involvement with young people through The Helmsman Project and the Raise Foundation, and teaching ethics classes at her local primary school. That same thread now continues through her therapeutic and couples work, and through the emerging Self-Awareness Project — a broader exploration of how greater self-awareness can be cultivated in individuals, relationships and the wider world.
