Description

Aleksi Litovaara – Executive Coach | World Cup Winner | Former Olympian | Solution Focused Trainer

As a World Cup winner and former Olympic finalist, I bring a unique blend of positive psychology, leadership and energizing courage to coaching processes. My mission is to help leaders, teams and high-potential talents to go through difficult changes, elevate their performance and thrive—both professionally and personally.

With a deep understanding of (self)leadership honed through years in sports, media, PR, education and entrepreneurship, I empower clients to create meaningful change. I have coached hundreds of professionals worldwide—from first-time managers to senior executives—helping them gain clarity, confidence and the skills needed to excel in high-pressure environments.

Collaborating with Fortune 500 companies across diverse industries has given valuable insights into leadership and high-performance dynamics in organizations such as Microsoft, Amazon, CGI, PwC, Pfizer, Roche, Fujitsu, BBC, Warner Music, ABB, Colliers, Ericsson, Garmin, Capgemini, Adecco, Wolt, Ford Foundation, Diageo, Aveva, Kone, Cariad, Zebra, Fortum, Finnair, WithSecure, OP, Valmet, Patria, Stora Enso, Meliá Hotels, Orifarm, Metso, Sulzer, and Three.

Thousands of professionals have been trained with me in mindfulness and Solution Focused methodologies—including Solution Focused coaches. Serving as a Board Member for the Finnish Coaching Association and various housing companies has further deepened expertise in leadership and organizational development.

My Coaching Journey

Coaching is deeply personal to me. At 13, my Solution Focused coach-mom taught me how to overcome my fear of competing—one of the most transformative lessons of my life. Today, I apply those same self-leadership strategies to help individuals and teams flourish. While winning solo is rewarding, succeeding with others is truly the ultimate triumph—that’s why I’m passionate and love coaching!

My approach is grounded in authentic interaction where soft emotions and tough goals can go hand in hand. I believe in creating safe spaces where my clients feel seen, heard and empowered to take bold and meaningful action.
