Charlotte Ahlberg

Business Coach, Board Professional, and Certified EPT Coach

She specializes in the financial impact of entrepreneurial behavior and supports leaders in developing leadership that empowers profitability.

Background

Charlotte brings a governance and financial performance perspective to the Entrepreneur Profile Test (EPT). Her work focuses on how entrepreneurial behavior influences strategy, risk exposure, capital allocation, and ultimately the income statement and balance sheet.

Throughout her professional career, she has operated at the intersection of finance, business growth and leadership. With extensive experience from board service, executive advisory and ownership roles, she contributes strategic direction, financial oversight and long-term value creation across different industries and ownership structures.

As a Board Professional serving on several Boards of Directors, Charlotte applies EPT as a strategic lens in governance discussions. She supports boards and executive teams in understanding how leadership patterns affect growth decisions, profitability, organizational structure and financial resilience.In parallel with her advisory and board work, Charlotte teaches business and finance at Linnaeus University in Sweden. Her academic engagement reinforces her ability to translate financial complexity into clear leadership accountability and measurable outcomes.

Charlotte’s contribution within EPT lies in making behavioral insight financially tangible. By connecting entrepreneurial archetypes to performance indicators, risk management, and capital discipline, she demonstrates how awareness drives sustainable profitability.

Her work reflects a clear conviction: profitability is the outcome of decisions, and decisions require behavioral awareness. Through this lens, she has developed a governance-based methodology for profitable leadership, where behavioral insight is systematically linked to financial outcomes and long-term value creation.

Thank you, Mr. Peter Russo

– former Director of Entrepreneurial Institute, Boston University School of Management for all your help through all these years of my studying and guiding me on my research – entrepreneurs and “how they think” that help me to figure out the 6th archetype (The workstyle archetype) that was later launched at The International Conference on Thinking in 2011. That also gave me the privilege to contribute with these six archetypes in my TEDx talks in April 2018 where you were of big help and support!

It has been an honor to work with you / Stefan L
