My approach and mission
Leadership shouldn’t be a solo journey.
A research quoted by Harvard Business (2023) shows that human relationships are the top source of workplace tension.
My work focuses precisely on this human dimension: impact, self-awareness, trust, collaboration.
In my career, I saw that most challenges weren’t about process, but about relationships, dynamics and expectations. I also saw how quickly things transform when leaders show intention, courage and care.
I am convinced that leadership starts within.
What drives me today is to partner with leaders to create meaningful impact on themselves, on their teams and their organisations.
My clients describe my approach as kind and direct, structured and grounded.
They highlight my ability to give candid, challenging feedback, to move fast and to bring the energy that mobilizes teams.
As a former HR Director and a leader, I bring solutions grounded in real experience, not theory.
I combine structured frameworks that are inspired by Lencioni’s, Korn Ferry assessment techniques or Radical candor model from Kim Scott with certified coaching models.
