The complexities of modern leadership have made the need for companies like Equilera increasingly clear in a world that is constantly picking up speed. Amidst buzzwords like “innovation” and “leadership” echoing through corporate corridors, it is vital to have a personalized guide with a compass that can navigate the dynamic playground of the business landscape. Just a basic map won’t cut it anymore.
Equilera is more than a corporation; it is a pioneer in the sphere of character and management growth. With the contest being fierce and the tempo being breakneck, Equilera becomes a sagacious teacher equipped with the most advanced neuroscientific knowledge and an array of ingenious coaching methods. The goal is not simply to endure the competition but to prosper in the face of change and intricacy.
Leading Equilera with a blend of expertise, warmth, and contagious passion, Nicole Lehrer personifies the guiding force behind the company’s mission, acting as the maestro orchestrating a symphony of growth, confidence, and vigor. As the CEO, Nicole doesn’t just lead; she dances through challenges with a blend of expertise, warmth, and a passion that’s contagious. It’s not just about hitting targets; it’s about nurturing potential and ensuring that every note played in the corporate orchestra contributes to a harmonious, sustainable future.
Nurtured by Wisdom and Vision
Born and raised in Vienna, Austria, Nicole Lehrer’s upbringing already shaped her groundwork for her future mission. Nicole’s wisdom through horses traces back to her childhood, particularly during visits to the Pyrenees to see her father. Enchanted by the wild horses there, she discovered a unique connection with them, especially the foals. Surrounded by the herd, Nicole experienced profound happiness and presence in the moment, shaping her perspective on life and laid the foundation. This childhood passion evolved into a guiding force, teaching her the power of silence, intuition, and empathy—lessons that continue to influence her approach to life and work two decades later.
Inherently shy but exceptionally observant as a child, Nicole spent time analyzing adult behaviors, especially complex emotions like hatred, fear, and jealousy. Simultaneously, she was drawn to those radiating joy and kindness, inspiring her to envision a future as a strong, proactive, and charismatic woman. This vision laid the foundation for her clear mission: to deeply understand human behavior and leverage this knowledge to drive positive change.
Bridging Practical Wisdom and Academic Leadership
Embarking on her academic odyssey, Nicole faced a pivotal choice between Psychology and International Business, setting the stage for a transformative journey. Opting for the latter, she embarked on a journey spanning Vienna, Spain, and New York University through a sponsorship. This diverse academic expedition immersed her in various cultures, organizational behaviors, and personalities, significantly expanding her worldview.
Nicole’s curiosity impelled her to actively engage with these new environments, proving to be a decision that reaped both personal and professional rewards. A part-time role at a finance institute in Vienna transitioned into a position on Wall Street, where Nicole discovered her passion for not just selling securities but also educating and advising clients on complex financial concepts.
A move to Switzerland brought her to a unique challenge as the youngest investment consultant at a Private Bank, pushing her to cultivate greater self-esteem and confidence. Concurrently, she pursued an International EMBA and a specialized two-year program in Management Training, incorporating equine interaction. This transformative experience deepened her understanding of leadership dynamics and personal development.
Stepping into self-employment in 2012, Nicole leveraged her experience to pioneer distinctive Leadership Training programs, setting the stage for Equilera’s unique approach. Phenomenal success and feedback followed, driving her relentless pursuit of excellence. Nicole furthered her qualifications, including a Master in Professional Coaching, certifications in Transpersonal Coaching, Professional Agile Leadership, and applied Neuroscience, among others.
By 2018, Nicole had established her own company, “Equilera,” a culmination of academic pursuits, professional experiences, and thousands of hours of practical application. Each juncture in her journey contributed uniquely to her approach in personal and leadership development, seamlessly blending traditional business acumen with innovative, science-backed methodologies.

Under her leadership, Equilera stands out for its integration of neuroscience, horse-assisted training and way beyond. This innovative blend offers deep and extremely fast insights about effective leadership attitude and behavior. Her responsibility includes ensuring that all their methods remain at the forefront of innovation and effectiveness.
As reflected in Equilera’s collaboration with top academic institutions like the University of St. Gallen, Nicole prioritizes integrating academic insights with practical leadership strategies. This ensures that the company provides a rich, multidisciplinary perspective to their clients. Also, a significant focus of her role is on empowering women in leadership, which through dedicated programs, she and her team address specific challenges and promote an inclusive leadership style. “It’s my duty to ensure that EQUILERA’s impact is sustainable, promoting long-term success for our clients. This involves combining experiential learning with practical application and science-based strategies, setting us apart in executive coaching and leadership development”, Nicole exclaims.
With a client roster including the University of St. Gallen and a myriad of industries, Equilera’s expertise, fortified by cutting-edge methodologies, exemplifies Nicole’s unwavering dedication to sustainable growth. This amalgamation of experiences and long-term relationships illustrates Nicole’s unwavering dedication to her clients’ sustainable growth. What sets Equilera apart is its extensive professional toolkit fortified by an array of methodologies that incorporate cutting-edge techniques such as the Zurich Resource Model (ZRM©) and HAGILE© (Horse Assisted Agile Leadership). This validates the provision of tailored strategies specifically designed to meet the unique demands of each client.
Embracing Eudaimonia Today towards a Better Tomorrow
Eudaimonia, revolving around achieving one’s fullest potential, is not just a concept but a guiding principle for Nicole, shaping her vision for leadership and personal growth. In the pursuit of leadership excellence and personal development, Nicole Lehrer’s approach transcends the conventional, rooted in the holistic philosophy of Eudaimonia. Her strategies delve into the essence of human flourishing and true happiness.
Looking ahead, in the next 5 to 10 years, Equilera under Nicole’s leadership aims to solidify its position as a leader in fostering Eudaimonic Leadership in organizations. The vision is to make relevant and applied neuroscientific insights easily accessible for leadership development, fostering a culture characterized by high levels of well-being, productivity, personal growth, social responsibility, and connected leadership. This aligns with the purpose of individuals and the overarching goals of the companies Equilera collaborates with.
Specifically, Equilera plans to widen its global reach, expanding services globally and establishing partnerships with businesses in different continents and cultures. The organization will focus on innovative program development, creating specialized modules for different levels of leadership and various organizational functions, incorporating the latest neuroscientific research and methodologies. Engaging in groundbreaking research on Eudaimonic Leadership and its impact on organizational success, Equilera aims to publish findings in renowned journals and major conferences. The organization will leverage technology to enhance coaching and training methodologies, develop sustainability initiatives within its programs, and form strategic alliances with academic institutions, thought leaders, and other organizations. Equilera also plans to develop a certification process for Eudaimonic Leadership, establishing a recognized standard in the industry.
By focusing on these goals, Equilera, under Nicole Lehrer’s leadership, aims not only to evolve within the realm of Eudaimonic Leadership but also to contribute significantly to the transformation of corporate cultures globally. The belief is that by advancing these initiatives, Equilera will continue to be at the forefront of leadership development, pioneering a holistic approach that integrates Eudaimonia, neuroscience, and innovative methodologies.
