An accomplished executive coach and corporate trainer, Sharon Danzger combines business acumen with the science of positive psychology to help professionals enhance productivity, performance, and well-being. As the founder of Control Chaos and author of "Super-Productive: 120 Strategies to Do More and Stress Less," she brings an evidence-based approach to transforming how people work and lead.
"The path to productivity isn't only about managing tasks on your to-do list. To be most impactful, you need to manage your energy, time, and focus."
The Missing Middle
In today's organizations, high-quality coaching remains a luxury reserved primarily for senior leaders. Mid-level and emerging leaders – the backbone of organizational success – are often left to navigate complex challenges alone or with minimal support. As organizations face increasing complexity and change, the need to democratize access to coaching has never been more urgent.
“A leader’s greatest strength lies in understanding people, not just managing tasks. When we lead with empathy, we build trust and inspire motivation and commitment.”

Sharon's approach stands out through its blend of academic rigor and practical application. Drawing from her background in finance and positive psychology she helps clients create sustainable change through:
- Evidence-based productivity strategies
- Well-being and emotional regulation techniques
- Structured experimentation and reflection
- Growth mindset development
- Real-time confidence building
- Cognitive reframing and perspective-taking
