Sarah's Rise

Sarah founded Omlie in January 2021 and scaled it from zero to a multi-million-dollar business in less than two years. She built an award-winning team during a pandemic and earned recognition, including Inc. 5000, Global Top 100 Inspiring Workplaces, and EY Entrepreneur of the Year finalist. What makes Omlie successful is equipping teams to build and implement strategies with confidence, clarity, and ownership.

Before founding Omlie, Sarah was on both sides of the table as a client hiring consultants and as a consultant herself. She saw the same pattern over and over: smart plans failing because teams weren't equipped to own them. That's what drives her approach today. Omlie works alongside Strategic Operators, the leaders who bridge vision and execution, to co-create solutions their teams can actually run with, long after the consultants leave.

Sarah's core belief is simple: build the Strategist, not just the strategy. When you teach capabilities, rather than creating dependencies, that's what sustainable growth actually looks like.

Professional Superpower

Sarah helps leaders see what's already working and scale it. Book her when you're scaling from founder-led to team-led, hiring your first leadership team, navigating a major organizational change, or stuck implementing strategy that looks great on paper but isn't translating to action.

Personal Superpower

She brings honesty and warmth to every conversation, making space for the hard stuff without losing the joy. She believes you can take the work seriously and still have fun doing it.

What Drives Sarah

Sarah is on a mission to change the way we work because when you build work around humanity instead of efficiency alone, you unlock what teams are truly capable of. She's proving that joy, empathy, and authenticity aren't soft perks; they're competitive advantages that create environments where people do the best work of their careers. Omlie's 10-year goal is to inspire 1,000 teams to work differently and achieve extraordinary results. She's not your traditional CEO, and that's exactly the point.
