Presence isn’t something you have.
It’s something you do.
Leadership training and executive coaching for professionals who want to lead and communicate with more authority, clarity and impact.
Leadership is a communication practice
You got where you are in your career because you are good at what you do. You’ve developped expertise, judgement, and the ability to deliver. But at a certain point, the work stops speaking for itself. You are no longer measured by what you deliver alone, but also by how you lead, influence, and bring others with you. And that is fundamentally a communication challenge.
Not communication in the sense of presenting well or choosing the right words, but as the practice of holding authority in a room, making decisions that stick, building trust under pressure, and moving people — even when the situation is ambiguous and the answers aren't clear yet.
Most professionals are equipped for the role they had, not the one they are stepping into. The capability gap is real, but the good news is, it can be closed. Leading is a skill in its own right, one that can be learned, practiced and refined.
And that’s exactly what I help people do.
Who I am
I spent more than twenty years in strategic communication, building reputations for organisations and leaders in the public eye, from shaping the PR strategy for brands across Europe to advising executives at the highest level.
Today, I design and deliver leadership development programmes, coach professionals and teach on business school programmes. I speak and moderate at international events on leadership, communication, and entrepreneurship.
My doctoral research at SDA Bocconi focuses on leader’s identity and it grounds everything I do in current behavioural research.
Clients call me when they need to develop executive presence, prepare leaders for high-stakes communication, navigate managerial transitions, or build leadership capability to shift how an organisation performs.
Areas of Practice
Training
Bespoke programmes for organisations developing their leadership pipeline. From new manager foundations to executive presence, influence and stakeholder management, every programme is designed around your specific context and challenges.
Coaching
Structured, confidential and action-oriented. For leaders navigating transitions, preparing for high-stakes moments, or building the self-awareness that distinguishes good leadership from exceptional leadership.
Speaking
Keynotes, panels and facilitated sessions on leadership identity, communication under pressure, and what it really takes to lead when the familiar narratives no longer hold. Available for corporate and industry events.
How we work together
Organisations
You are developing your leadership pipeline and need programmes that go beyond generic content. You want training that is specific to your culture, your challenges and the transitions your people are navigating.
Individuals
You are stepping into a bigger role, preparing for a critical moment, or ready to invest in how you lead and communicate. You want a structured, expert-led space to develop your leadership practice and influence.
What participants say
“A leadership course that was both fascinating and powerful, revealing a field I had not known about, but which is central to writing the next chapter of my career.”
“A structured and engaging programme that I experienced as a genuine learning journey. The exchanges, tools and shared perspectives gave me reference points I will continue to apply every day.”
“The work on personal values was a turning point for me. It helped me understand not just what drives me, but how to recognise and honour what drives others. That shift changed how I collaborate.”
