Our approach

A diamond inside every leader.

We believe we all carry an inner diamond — the skills and talents you use best, with the most pleasure and the least effort. Our work is to help that diamond shine, for yourself and for everyone in your sphere of influence.

01
Learn

Draw from 35 years of personal-development practice, from NLP to Tibetan Lojong meditation and the Marshall Goldsmith 100 Coaches community.

02
Practice

Apply it to real decisions, real teams, real moments — because everything we teach, we practice on ourselves first.

03
Share

Then pass it on. Better leaders make happier people, and happier people build better companies.

Capabilities

An integrated approach we call Your Inner Diamond.

Individual leadership coaching

Start with the leader. Then the team. Then the company.

We begin with individual CEOs before working with their leadership teams and, finally, the whole organisation. A directed approach that creates real, lasting change — one-on-one, face-to-face or over Zoom.

What they say

In their own words.

Our relationship with Philippe has just gone deeper and deeper as I realised how powerful he was to me and then to the organisation. Polishing our diamond is a metaphor that speaks to a jeweller — and that is exactly what we have done together.

Alain Bernard
Founder & CEO, Abbey Road Advisory · Former President & CEO, Richemont Americas

Philippe practices coaching as an art. Method and spontaneity merge wonderfully with the self and the organisation to form new perspectives. Business becomes more meaningful and enjoyable. As a result, performance improves.

Jerome Chouchan
