Strategic Coaching for Mid-Career Professionals and Credentialed Coaches

Based in Switzerland and serving clients globally, I offer strategic coaching that blends business insight with deep mindset work — grounded, personalised, and built for real-world complexity.

I work with mid-level professionals driving results from the middle — and the coaches who support them. 

You’re here to do meaningful work — whether that’s building a coaching business on the side of a full time career, or leading from the middle of a fast-paced organisation.

I coach the people driving change — and the coaches guiding them.

Business and Leadership Coach Switzerland - Sara Mobarhanfard

With a background in supply chain and systems leadership, I understand fast-paced, matrixed organizations from the inside. I’ve led global projects, negotiated multi–seven-figure sourcing contracts, and managed operations across the globe.

 

I’ve also built a sustainable e-commerce business, so I understand the challenges of entrepreneurship — from both a structural and emotional perspective.

 

This blend of corporate and entrepreneurial experience means I don’t offer cookie-cutter advice. I help you think clearly, prioritize effectively, and make decisions that align with your values and goals — whether you’re scaling your coaching practice or navigating leadership inside a complex organization.

 

My work integrates systems thinking, neuroscience-based coaching, IFS-informed parts work, and behavioral strategy tools like DISC. This gives my clients a dual advantage: deeper insight into how they operate, and strategic clarity on where to focus next.

To date, I’ve coached over 300 professionals and coaches — helping them lead more effectively, think more clearly, and build work that actually works for them.

What My Clients Value Most

My clients often come to me after they’ve outgrown generic programs, crowd-sourced advice, or “just follow this funnel” templates.

They want:

  • A confidential, strategic space for big decisions and deeper insight

  • Clear, direct feedback from someone who sees the full picture

  • A coaching container that respects the pace of real life

My Clients Are:

  • Senior and mid-level managers, project managers and team leaders 

  • Credentialed leadership coaches building values-aligned businesses on the side of a corporate career

If you’re navigating complexity — as a leader or a coach — I can help you think more clearly, act more decisively, and build something that actually fits.

What I Believe About Growth and Success

Growth isn’t about doing more: it’s about clarity, alignment, and systems that support you.

  • Systems create freedom. When your work and business are grounded in structure, your results no longer rely on motivation alone. You gain traction through rhythm, not force.

  • Strong foundations create sustainable growth. Quick wins might feel exciting, but momentum fades without clarity and consistency. Real success comes from building the few fundamentals that actually move the needle.

  • Your story is your edge. The more your work reflects your lived experience and values, the more trust and traction you create. Alignment is more powerful than performance.

  • Mastery begins within. When your mindset, strategy, and structure work together, growth becomes not only possible — but sustainable.

This is the kind of growth I help my clients create: strategic, authentic, and rooted in what actually works for them.
