Wildheart Leadership works at the intersection of business performance and human development, with clients who want real change — not the appearance of it — and who understand that it begins with the habits we’re willing to question.
The experience behind it spans 30 years of projects and transformations across private and public sectors, deepened by serious engagement with the ways of working complexity now demands.
Based in Copenhagen, working across the Nordics and internationally.
I’m Hanne Vibe Andreasen. I work with senior leaders, change-makers, teams and organisations who sense there’s another way.
Before advising leaders in complexity, I spent years learning what it feels like from the inside — through business leadership and organisational change, then coaching and facilitation, and into complexity, human wisdom, embodied practice, and organisational vitality.
After 30 years, here’s where I’ve landed. We’re not short of action — we’ve been busy for decades — but much of it stays inside the same paradigm. We talk about shifting our draining, inefficient ways of working instead of actually shifting them, and that keeps us both comfortable and standing still.
The real work is harder: changing habits, perspectives, and the power structures around them — and most of us quietly avoid the discomfort it takes. To every engagement I bring not just experience but presence, and the same inner work I ask of the leaders I work with.
At the heart of it is one question I keep returning to: what does it mean to be human — and how do we get genuinely good at it, including at work? Our humanness isn’t a liability to manage; it’s our most powerful creative capacity. Technology is here to serve that — to amplify us, not replace us.
I work with a few clients at a time, by design — depth over breadth. When a project needs broader scope, I bring in a group of senior practitioners who are the “we” of Wildheart Leadership. The change I believe in shouldn’t depend on access to a consultant — I share the thinking, frameworks and practices openly; reach out and I’ll point you to free resources.
Everything I do rests on one conviction, earned the hard way: what organisations most need can’t be installed — it has to be grown, deliberately, through the habits and practices we’re willing to change. That’s the whole of it.
And I love this work: tending organisations toward what the future will ask of them, with people who grow and thrive as the work reshapes the business.
There is a kind of leadership the world needs now. I call it Wildheart Leadership.
Wildheart Leadership is what becomes possible when we stop managing our humanness and start leading from it.
Old English — wildeor:
of the natural world, untamed
Not chaotic or reckless: alive, unreduced, true to its nature.
Wild leadership won’t manage away the complexity, the tension, or the life force. It works with what’s real.
Latin — cor, French — coeur:
courage, core, centre
Not sentiment: the seat of integrated knowing, where thought, feeling, body and spirit speak together.
At its root, heart means courage — to act from what’s true when the ground is uncertain.
Old English — lǣdan:
to guide, to travel a path with others
Not a title or a technique: keeping yourself and others in right relationship with what’s actually happening, and with what wants to emerge.
