Who am I?

I am a leadership development consultant and executive coach, with a business background.

I have been a management consultant for 20 years, and started my own practice in 2018.

Before that, I was working at one of the top global organisational consulting firms in the world, Korn Ferry – serving a wide variety of corporate clients and supporting a significant number of people through transitions.

Born in France, with an international culture and mindset.

I have lived in the US for 5 years
Travelled the world for 2 years, spent quite some time in China

Always an eye open on the world, feeling that I am a global citizen.

I coach in English and in French.

Currently based in Paris, I work remotely with my clients, wherever in the world they might be. Even though actual, physical location isn’t so important these days, I am always happy to see clients in person when they are around!

Since 2025, I have been Associate Faculty at Hult Ashridge Executive Education.

I am also the co-founder and President of INSEAD’s Mastering Change alumni Club for France.

Become themselves. Aligned. And thrive.

Ethics

As a member of the European Mentoring & Coaching Council, I adhere to the Global Code of Ethics for Coaches and Mentors.

I also subscribe to the Ashridge Code of Conduct for Coaches.

Coaching style

My approach is inspired by a systems psychodynamic perspective, with a relational orientation.

What does this mean?

In a nutshell, I will support you with warmth and empathy, but also challenge you and hopefully we will explore uncharted territories together!

Coaching is a co-creation, it is by both showing up fully in the conversation that magic happens.
