Leaders face some loneliness in the exercise of their mission and the people on whom they can rely necessarily have their own "agenda".
The sparring partner defends only the interests of the manager he or she accompanies with the minimum of subjectivity.
His know-how, his external and independent eye, help to take a step back, to develop or challenge decisions, to make them coherent and to explore possible blind spots.
He is available when the leader is facing complex situations and difficult choices.
