This hands-on executive experience has provided him with invaluable insight into the daily pressures and opportunities facing today's leaders.
Crucially, his own career trajectory was fundamentally shaped by executive coaching.
At three critical junctures, Thierry Laugerette was fortunate to engage with executive coaches who catalyzed real change. Their impact went far beyond merely boosting his professional performance metrics. More profoundly, coaching drove deep, personal shifts in his core attitudes and behaviors, helping him unlock a higher level of authentic leadership.

We operate in a world defined by exponential acceleration — a pace that often leaves even the most senior leaders feeling overwhelmed and isolated.
