About
Hello, I'm Leanne Elich, a Sales Psychology and Business Strategist, Leadership Coach, Author and Speaker. The CEO of Leanne Elich Consulting, a consulting and advisory firm specialising in ethical, human-centred sales strategies, business systems, processes & practices. We are on a mission to educate, develop and support exceptional businesses to understand the rich intersection of neuroscience and behavioural science with business. A powerful combination transforming businesses faster than thought possible.
Often described as an unshakeable optimist, I believe in a bright future and our ability to build it together, one brain at a time.
Captivated by the people and organisations that make the greatest and longest-lasting impact, my work has uncovered remarkable patterns in how people think, behave, and communicate in the environments where they operate at their best.
With a PhD in Cognitive Neuropsychology and a graduate of Harvard Business School and Harvard Medical School, I am considered a sought after expert in bridging the gap between science and business.
In 2023, I was thrilled to be awarded the 2023 Top 20 Women in Business and in 2024, I was honoured with the title of Master Neuroplastician by the Institute of Organizational Neuroscience.
My mission is simple but profound: Changing business, one brain at a time.
My passion for medicine sparked at age 5 when I was given the game Operation as a gift. I would recruit friends and family to be my patients.
My ambition to enter the medical industry propelled me from high school to university. I graduated from the University of Sydney and specialised in Radiation Oncology.
I worked clinically at the Prince of Wales Hospital, Liverpool Cancer Therapy Centre and other global institutions. Motivated to take my career to the next level, I transitioned into commercial medicine and business development, which took me around the world.
In 2018, I launched Leanne Elich Consulting. We work closely with clients and offer a range of bespoke consulting, business, and executive coaching services in sales, marketing, leadership, and strategic management.
I love sharing knowledge, so I regularly contribute to local and national media outlets, including ABC Radio and the Sydney Morning Herald. I am also an honorary clinical fellow at the Queensland University of Technology, an international Keynote speaker and a Women in Leadership advisor.
Let's connect and explore how we can build a brighter future together, one brain at a time.

Your business strategy is being challenged by unexpected market shifts. How will you pivot to stay ahead?
When unexpected market shifts challenge your business strategy, agility and stability are essential. Begin by analysing the new market dynamics to understand emerging trends and customer behaviours. Quickly assess your current strategy’s vulnerabilities and identify opportunities for innovation. Reallocate resources to high-impact areas and consider diversifying your products or services to meet changing demands. Engage your team in brainstorming sessions to generate creative solutions, and communicate transparently with stakeholders to maintain their confidence. By embracing flexibility and acting decisively, you can pivot effectively and turn market challenges into opportunities for growth and competitive advantage.

You're facing pushback from stakeholders on new customer-centric strategies. How can you win them over?
Communication, communication, and communication are key. Start by presenting data and statistics that demonstrate the benefits of these strategies, highlighting how they align with business goals and long-term growth. Address concerns by offering evidence of successful case studies or competitor examples. Engage stakeholders by involving them in the process, a psychological bias called the endowment effect, seeking their input and showing how their expertise can enhance the strategy. Emphasize the potential for improved customer loyalty and increased revenue. By building a compelling, evidence-based case and fostering collaboration, you can turn resistance into support and drive the strategy forward effectively.

Continuous learning also sharpens critical thinking, enabling you to solve complex problems and seize new opportunities. Moreover, it fosters a growth mindset, encouraging resilience and adaptability in the face of change. In essence, continuous learning isn’t just about keeping up—it’s about leading the way in a dynamic business landscape.
