Championing Conscious Leadership

About Thor

Thor Olafsson has worked in over 30 countries for more than 2 decades, and in that time, he has founded several companies in 4 countries. His company, the Strategic Leadership Group, has a team of over 80 executive coaches and trainers.

Thor’s main passion is conscious leadership. For him, the lessons he learned about conscious leadership didn’t come easily. Like many of the executives that he has coached, he has been near both burnout and bankruptcy; but at his lowest moments, he asked himself the big questions and did the deep work required.

Thor has created many novel business concepts including The Leadership Cube and the Inner Compass of Conscious Leadership. His bestselling book, Beyond Ego: The Inner Compass of Conscious Leadership offers a highly practical and experiential path towards identifying ego patterns and leading beyond them. The Inner Compass model helps solve the conflict that exists between subconscious, ego-driven defence mechanisms and the inner self‘s higher purpose. It’s a path that starts with self-awareness and then continuously expands to include impact on both teams and entire organisations.

Thor loves to speak on how he’s overcome his challenges and how he transformed the way he shows up as a leader to help others do the same. He raises awareness and enables the leader to embrace conscious leadership, not just as a concept, but in every interaction in their leadership role, helping them move beyond ego.

He is a thoughtful, powerful, impactful speaker.
