Dr Sarah Whyte has a doctorate in emotional intelligence, where she focused on creating and testing an emotional intelligence intervention to support change. Her years of doctoral research gave her the specialist skills required to create new knowledge and become an expert in her field. She keeps up to date with research on emotion, psychology and neuroscience (which is no hardship for a massive research geek who finds emotions fascinating). 

 Alongside her research expertise, Dr Sarah seamlessly incorporates more than twenty years of supporting thousands of people with tough emotions, well-being and resilience. Her fascination with the impact of emotions began in her teaching career and led her to become a speaker and facilitator to reach a wider audience. She is an experienced workshop facilitator, providing personalised, engaging and practical workshops both online and in-person.

 She usually works with leaders and teams in high-pressure environments who find themselves constantly under pressure to perform at peak levels. Her workshop participants are held to high expectations at work and may even be at risk of burnout. Her previous clients include interns and graduates up to C-suite executives, including sales and marketing professionals, software engineers, educators and management consultants across the Asia-Pacific region, Europe and the Middle East.

 Dr Sarah helps people to understand the power of emotion in building psychological safety. She distils complex research findings into simple but powerful knowledge and strategies to support people to boost their performance, productivity and communication, create an open, transparent, high-trust culture and build supportive working relationships.

 Originally from the United Kingdom, Sarah has called Singapore home for the last fifteen years. When she’s not working, she spends most of her time running around after her two young children and getting as much sleep as possible.
