About Isabelle Wagner

Isabelle is an executive coach and consultant with 16+ years of experience supporting senior leaders and organizations with executive search, leadership development, and transformation.

Her current work sits at the intersection of AI, leadership, and change management. She helps senior leaders future-proof their skills, make sound and responsible decisions, and navigate the business, human, and societal impact of AI.

Clients also work with her as a confidential, impartial thinking partner — a trusted space to pressure-test strategic ideas, work through complex or sensitive challenges, and ask candid questions when the stakes are high.

She supports organizations during AI implementation through leadership readiness and change management, executive search for AI-related and transformation roles, and outplacement during workforce transitions.

Her background includes extensive experience conducting international executive searches, primarily in the life sciences sector at VP level and above, and also support leadership searches in other innovation-driven sectors.

She brings a global perspective shaped by having lived 15 years total overseas in Australia, Singapore, South Korea, and Turkey, and serving an international client base. Isabelle’s firsthand experience navigating diverse cultural and business environments enables her to deliver strategic, globally informed, and culturally sensitive solutions.

At Arlantus Consulting, she is also our trained specialist for machine learning and AI. Recognizing the importance of gaining firsthand experience in coding across various languages and deepening her knowledge in AI even further, she completed the following certificates:

​

• Harvard University: CS50 Introduction to Computer Science
  (11 weeks / 10-20 hours per week), 2023
   

• Harvard University: CS50 Introduction to Python
  (10 weeks / 3-9 hours per week), 2023
   

• Stanford University School of Medicine: AI in Healthcare Specialization (5 weeks / 56 hours total), 2024

 

These programs strengthen her ability to advise leaders pragmatically, not just conceptually, on how AI reshapes roles, workflows, and decision-making.

Isabelle is available for executive coaching, executive search, outplacement, and AI.
