Whether you need a keynote that opens minds at your leadership summit, or a power workshop that sends your team home changed — Dr. Sara Hegy brings the science, the story, and the stage presence to make it unforgettable.
Sara doesn't do motivational fluff. Every talk is built on
neuroscience, real fieldwork across 24 countries,
and her own extraordinary story — from Cairo to a $2.7M NIH grant to founding a Berlin leadership
company that grew 200% in three years.
Audiences don't just leave inspired —
they leave with a framework they can use on Monday.

“ITCS Munich 2025 was a real highlight! The Masterclass "GenX Leadership Academy // Beyond Diversity" gave me fresh insights I'll definitely use. I made helpful new connections and loved the positive energy and creative spirit at the event. Big thanks to the ITCS team for organising everything so smoothly. Next year, I'd love even more interactive networking and hands-on demos!”
— Grant Dagogo Jack“A truly insightful session! Sara was very attentive and supportive throughout the coaching session. She took the time to really understand me and helped draw out the best in my thinking. She also positively challenged me to look at aspects of my vision from a different perspective, which was incredibly valuable!”
— Khadra Breuer“Practical workshop The workshop was very interesting with practical and actionable exercises. I found it great too, that she shared her story”
— William Kwamou“Dr. Hegy is a very good and patient listener! She dug back from my everyday workplace problems to the roots of my childhood and upbringing. She shows empathy and understanding of a challenging ecosystem for an expat building scientific career in Germany. What struck me was giving specific steps to build relationship with my boss, very vivid illustration of cooking turkey as a metaphor, and short guided meditation session. Highly recommended for people who feel lonely and unheard who are determined to build successful career.”
— Ivana Radosavljević“Sara is a true guide and her work showed me magic Sara is a true guide and by your side for whatever you are going through. I don't find it easy to open up and let myself be accompanied but she did so consistently, fiercely and lovingly, pointing out things that are hard to swallow but important to accept. She opened me up to receive and see magic moments in my life and she truly has changed my life in the little time I have known her. I came to her for career coaching and received two job offers without actively applying within that week.”
— Therese von Alten“Sara was amazing.I went to her when I was losing hope in my career, feeling completely lost and not knowing where to start.She understood my feelings right away and quickly made time to listen and support me.After just two sessions,I already felt a differenceHer words opened up so many new possibilities for me, and she kept following up until I was able to take my first steps.I highly recommend her!”
— nouran Hassanien“Structured leadership and empathy for personal growth The coaching was extremely structured and truly encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone – exactly what I needed! After our session, I developed a solid plan and was able to reflect on my situation with great clarity. Sara's pleasant manner further enhanced the process.”
— Julia Y.“Sara is a fantastic coach. She is very genuine, easy to talk to, and perceptive in discerning the root issue. Because of this, I felt that she could help me quickly and effectively. I didn't have a great experience with a coach in the past so I was skeptical at first, but she taught me to trust again. I plan on going back for more and strongly recommend her.”
