Sabine about herself
Above all, SABINE GROMER is a passionate transformation architect. Through MagnoliaTree she has fulfilled a lifelong dream. Since Sabine was 20 years old, she knew that her life mission was to accompany people as they grow.
Lived strategic responsibility
Sabine was able to achieve her career goals early on. Her strategic responsibility had a system-wide reach. Two decades in the financial industry provided her with the necessary experience to lead MagnoliaTree as she does today: as an exclusive consulting boutique – a quality-driven company grown by word of mouth – with a wide reach and selective order taking.
Most recently, she was Managing Director at the rating agency Standard & Poor’s as their Global Head of Organizational Effectiveness. Sabine is also on the Next Generation Board of FRED Leadership, a member of the Tavistock Institute and in the team of Humanistic Management Network Austria.
The focus: Strategy Decision-makers
Sabine enjoys working with supervisory boards, executive boards, managing directors, and investors as a trusted advisor for strategic orientation, implementation of change processes, people strategy, and digital leadership. She is clear, fair, and trustworthy. Her 20 years in the financial industry, especially her 11 years in a rating agency, have been an excellent teacher.
As a young rating analyst, Sabine learned to build trusting, respectful, and honest relationships with CEOs, CFOs, and Group Treasurers. Later she learned to deal with high-pressure situations and financial crises in an elegant, calm, and considered manner. Sabine meets everyone on equal footing, unimpressed by the borrowed power of a title.
