GenX Leadership Factory is where Great Ideas around People Development meet Science to create Breakthrough Results
Hi, I'm Dr. Sara Hegy and you're here because you just got that I'm a powerhouse who serves humans to unleash their best potential.
Why? Because I was miserable for the longest time in going after my dream to publish in Nature and contribute to the scientific environment.
What changed? I got coached during my PhD and what happened next changed the course of my life FOREVER!
Latest News: $2.7 million grant from the NIH , Congratulations from the German Embassy in Cairo.
Seen in: DW, Skynews, ETC Recognized Coach from the German Government.
How my future looks like: Everything is POSSIBLE!!
I'm here to share with you THAT!!
If you're a HR manager, a CEO, an Entrepreneur in a promising startup, an investor who cares about the future of work and people, we are your go-to business to help you unveil the riddles of talent management behind the science, the strategies, and the titles- Keep Reading..
The law is simple.
24 = 8 + 8 + 8
Those are the total number of hours you and your team have every day. Typically people sleep 8 hours, work another 8 and live another 8.
Step 1: Let's demonstrate how people work their 8 hours according to stats.
Step 2: Let's take a highlighter and highlight which parts of this circle are negatively impacting a typical S&P company.
P.S those numbers are even bigger on a global scale.
Step 3: Let's talk numbers...
Step 4: What we do based on clients' surveys*...
*numbers in the chart are approximate based on our clients surveys and measures of performance. We assess measures like productivity, freedom of self-expression, self-confidence.
We revolutionize human perceptions about their work cultures.
We give our clients the scientific playbook behind having a great life of making a difference together with a box of tools to practice the skills they need to build to develop their leadership after building with them a foundation of self-awareness that leads to them understanding their patterns and behaviors.
We understand that every human wants to make a difference, some failed and never recovered, some are committed but struggling, some never knew themselves as capable, some got lost and haven't discovered their strengths, some are having recurring disempowering circumstances that are in the way, some with high potential but are unaware of how to maximize it and some who believe they are in the wrong place so they sabotage themselves and others around them.
In a Nutshell:
We help you and your team spend your 8 amazing hours in a mental state of energy recharge, growth, fulfillment, balanced mindset, and profound relationships that the team spends their ''official 8 hours'' at peak performance and productive measures to create groundbreaking results of innovative nature and strong ROI to your businesses.

Thanks Sara for your sincerity and high sense of professionalism during all the steps that we went through during our preparation for the Elite meeting Training Workshop.

Building a partnership with Sara has had repercussions on many aspects of my professional and personal life. Sara has helped me distinguish my self-limiting beliefs and realize the masked potential for my performance. Her program was sincerely customized to me and feeling her devotion to support me has given our partnership an immense forward push. As we started, I was skeptical of the technique, and I wondered “Do you think this is going to work? Is this worth my investment?”. To every wonderer like myself, the answer to both questions is YES! I highly recommend Sara to people aspiring to grow, seeing a boundary that they do not understand, and willing to open up and dwell into their core. This might just be the thing for you!

Sara got my attention and intention ready since our very first call...highly motivated and committed.
Sara's program included group and 1 on 1 action , definitely a pleasant journey and life-changing experience The program opened up aspects for growth and made me regain curiosity. It also helped me define when things go wrong and how to act in such situations .
the program provided tools and enlightenment to master self-awareness , the value provided exceeded my expectations and opened up a new world for me. Sara makes sure she listens carefully and is very dedicated to her customer , a definition of work passionately done. I wish Sara a flourishing business and career, and I highly recommend her as a coach .

Sara was my coach for 3 months during which she provided a judgment-free & structured space to explore my situation and come up with new ways to achieve what matters the most for me.
She uses several coaching techniques such as powerful questions and deep listening to identify roadblocks that stay in the way of me living in the life of freedom.
It was amazing to know that there are many tools and resources from which we are not aware, which can assist us in making better decisions and positively impacting our life.
After my coaching sessions with Sara I became better in describing myself. I started having powerful conversations with my boss. I became aware of when I am in a reaction. I learnt being in a reaction doesn't take me anywhere from where I am but actions do. Sara is very kind and continues to check on me frequently and remind me of the powerful techniques I learnt from her.

" I had the pleasure of working with Sara as my career and personal coach. She helped me to discover my blockers and improve my performance in both my personal and professional life.
I am delighted to express my deep appreciation for Sara's exceptional guidance as my leadership coach. Throughout our coaching sessions, I encountered numerous situations where effective communication played a pivotal role in achieving remarkable results. Unfortunately, communication is not my strongest suit. This is where Sara's invaluable support came into play, assisting me in enhancing my communication skills. With her expertise, she introduced me to a systematic approach that can be applied across various contexts. Moreover, Sara's guidance helped me gain clarity in my thoughts, enabling me to overcome numerous obstacles that previously hindered my progress. Thanks to her efforts, I have successfully resolved many challenging situations that would have otherwise remained unresolved.

"I chose Sara Hegy to be my coach 3 months ago after seeing her on TV speaking about her journey. I had a strong feeling that she will be able to help me although I didn't know what to expect from the program.
I was truly surprised by all the things Sara helped me discover about myself. She helped me see where my self-limiting beliefs are coming from and how I can deal with them. She helped me discover how to be powerful and free.
In just a few weeks I have seen myself perform and communicate differently because of her coaching. Sara is an amazing coach, she does it from the heart and she put her all into her coaching. If you want a powerful coach who would commit to unleash you and hold you accountable to your own success, I highly recommend Sara."

Real Experiences they shared..
"Sara has helped me with transitioning from a long professional career as an employee to become a successful entrepreneur. Thanks to her coaching I've been able to make great moves in the last few months. And this is just the beginning.
Sara has helped me to move from a survival mindset to a high performer entrepreneurial mindset and this is gold!
First, Sara has helped me to understand and to realize is how much drama was around me.. that my life was driven by lots and lots of drama that I didn't know that I wasn't aware of. Now, I have tools to deal with my drama to make the best out of it and being able to be in control, whenever this negativity- inner voice, imposter syndrome in whatever form comes out and and I become aware and I can deal with it. Only this has been a big game changer for me.
Secondly, very, very important as well is to gain clarity to have an end goal... What's my end goal? What's my why? So for me now, of course, thanks to the coaching, I know that I want to become financially independent so that I can have more quality time with my kids, my wife, my family and when you know that it's much easier to go out there and show up as the amazing entrepreneur, amazing professional, amazing expert that you are. And my case, I've been able to get much better business opportunities just because I was clear."

"It was really powerful to attend this coaching program with Sara. She has the talent and tools to go deep and help her client discover their blocks, then give them the suitable tools to overcome their weaknesses.
I have read a lot of books and attended many short courses and workshops before on my way to discover and develop myself, but this program was really different. The program structure is very helpful especially in training the client on using the tools in different situations and the available support when they are being stuck. Being in a group sounded like an uncomfortable idea, but then I found it really inspiring and helpful.
Being in a group helped me to have a wider vision and practice more and review more situations in the same session. I really recommend this program to anyone who is seeking to discover him/ herself, their blocks and strength points and wants to develop themselves from a clean slate. For me, I'm passionately looking forward to the next program."
Rana El Laithy, Egypt

“So before the coaching journey I used to have low self confidence and high doubts about myself I didn't really have value for my time or my word and to be honest about anything in life at all and I didn't really know what is my purpose in life really or what things I can accomplish.
My life before the coaching was like full of darkness and hatred and people used to use my time and run my life for me, forcing me to do decisions I don't really want to do and I was afraid ( I didn't even know that I was afraid )
Now after 6 months journey of coaching with Sara : I can tell that I know what is really going on with me, I can have deep authentic conversation with myself that I can share myself freely with no fear of rejection or judgements cause I knew the sources of my trauma and am no longer victim for it , I understood more about my relationship with time , love , words family and friends.
My life now is like a rollercoaster ( ups and downs) , and I'm okay with that as I no longer give up for the downs and don't let it dominate me and dominate my life. I'm not saying life is always easy but through the journey you will really have a breakthrough and you get through the challenges in the way.
Things I had accomplished during my journey :
1- High self-confidence
2- High self-awareness
3- I finished 4 courses while previously finishing a single course was a myth to me.
4- I do share myself freely while previously I used to remain silent all the time.
5- I got 2 job offers in one day.
6- Now I've my business with my father and no longer searching or interested in a job.
That was about me and my experience with Sara. Now if you ask me about the coaching: I assure you 500% it's really worth it!
As for Sara, she is super awesome human being and super passionate person that will give you the space and the time to create and help you with all what she have and all what she can do , she will be a super stand for you to achieve great things in life as coaching for her is not just about the business only and even when you finish your coaching with her you can have her as mentor and seek her advice.
She will gladly do that as this is her true commitment in life: to change people's lives and to support them in having life open up for them.
It will be really such a priceless experience that you'll have.”

"I was looking for a professional coach and contacted Sara based on her positive recommendations. Following our first call of getting to know each other, Sara proposed a long coaching program that works on my inner values and gets rid of my performance blockers.
I worked through sessions which entailed in-depth reflections on one's self during sessions and homework in between sessions. The suggested exercises helped me rank order values in life on a high, medium and low basis and encouraged me to reflect on ways in which I may be able to achieve greater satisfaction with my leadership skills in both my working life and personal life.
Reflecting on Sara's strategy, engaging personality, and incredible active-listening skills, I believe I made the proper selection; Sara was highly influential in nailing down my personality traits, uncovering what provided me with positive vibes and what I should stay away from. In the leadership program, Sara managed to help me clarifying what I was striving for. These coaching sessions were an excellent investment of money and time, and I would recommend Sara to any professional at her/his career crossroads. It does make a difference."
