Too many transformation efforts die in the PowerPoint. Synne Støhlmacher helps leaders make sure theirs don’t.
As a trusted advisor to C-suites and senior teams across Southeast Asia, Synne guides organisations through the messy middle of change, where strategy meets behaviour and momentum often stalls. Her work turns innovation from a one-off initiative into a repeatable capability.
Over the past decade, she has helped clients like HSBC, L’Oréal, and Petronas redesign how they lead, learn, and deliver. Her projects range from cutting processing time from one day to 30 seconds, to unlocking over USD 1.5 million in value through customer validation, to launching ventures now valued at over $500M.
Synne’s approach blends Scandinavian clarity with South East Asian cultural fluency. Whether she is advising CIOs on capability roadmaps, working with CHROs on culture shifts, or equipping future leaders with design-led ways of thinking, her style is warm, direct, and deeply practical.
She doesn’t just talk about change. She builds it into the system.
