Meet the Founder: Satu Ahlman

Leadership, Culture & Performance Advisor

“I was happy to be coached by Satu for several months in 2021. I was looking forward to receiving new development ideas for my business. However, thanks to her coaching, I made significant changes to my current lifestyle, enhancing my overall well-being and health. During the coaching process, I paid more and more attention to my sleep, exercise and diet. Satu's ability to make a comprehensive analysis of the client's situation is something unique. She has extensive knowledge of performance, resilience, productivity and human capacity. I can highly recommend Satu's coaching services to any leader interested in changing life balance and performance.” CEO, Finland

Nice to meet you!

I am an advisor with specializations in performance coaching, interpersonal communication and leadership & executive team development, as well as developing healthy high performance cultures with a top down approach. I’ve worked as an executive advisor for C-level executives, entrepreneurs and management teams worldwide for over a decade. Prior to founding Saga Performance I worked with executive and management team assessments in the Nordics, leadership development globally and have also lead a successful turnaround as CEO of a business in Finland.

Being a high performing executive and active athlete myself, I founded Saga Performance to be able to support likeminded high achievers reach true, sustainable high performance. Ultimately live long, fulfilling, and healthy lives. And be RESILIENT!

I live in Stockholm, Sweden yet work with private and corporate clients, and speaking to international audiences around the globe, virtually, and onsite.

I’m a certified PRI psychometric assessment provider, epigenetic performance coach from ApeironZoh, a licensed Firstbeat service provider, a certified DUTCH test practitioner, an Oxygen Advantage Functional breathing instructor and have a Master’s degree in Social Sciences from Stockholm University. I’ve also studied strategic communications at schools like Hyper Island and Berghs School of Communication.

I have what it takes to succeed in my profession. I walk the talk.

I’ve personally gone through a transformation. I was a highly action driven high performer already at young age, simultaneously feeling tired and low in energy due to excessive business travels and having an intense, “efficiency and productivity” focused work- and life style. These combined with (or perhaps leading to) food intolerances, hormonal imbalances with cortisol and melatonin etc., including sleep issues and feeling drained. Troubling yes - but I was (and still am) highly motivated to maximize capacity and performance. So I truly wanted to crack the code - and find a sustainable way of enjoying life and performing at the top.

After years of trial and error, N=1 studies, and through successful “life hacking”, active self leadership, including mapping the blueprint of my own bio-genetic makeup, I decided to make transformation and optimization programs easier, faster and more efficient for leaders, athletes and other high performers out there.

While working in the more traditional side of leader and culture development, I am so happy to help people become conscious of the impact their choices, interpersonal communication, attitude, and lifestyle have on performance and their capabilities as leaders. And witnessing the transformations is simply amazing. People feel more alive, healthy, productive yet relaxed, and smarter than before, and that, to me, is the most rewarding.

I currently work with corporates and leaders helping them design and develop sustainable cultures, with a top down leadership approach. I also take on a handful of private clients for unique data driven performance programs each year, Fit For Life being a great example of such.

Satu is a great professional coach with in-depth experience in the business world. She has an excellent practical approach with real-life examples and pushing to think and act outside the norms.
