Following the famous proverb, Certo Coaching & Consulting was founded in 2013 with the firm belief that a positive outlook is not only an asset, it's what broadens the horizon of possibility - particularly when taking on any initiative to enhance performance which, after all, implies change.

Certo takes inspiration from Appreciative Inquiry, a powerful methodology for accompanying individual and organizational change. In tackling a challenge, this approach calls for maintaining a curious mind in order to value what's working well or what's "right", explore a better or ideal future, and then direct attention, energy, and other resources to making it happen.

As for many of us, change has been a constant throughout my professional life: change of country, company, role, industry, etc. Having pursued a career in International Human Resources and then in Professional Coaching, I have experienced corporate and academic working environments in Europe as well as the challenge and rewards of owning and running a small business.

Although I wear multiple hats, you will find in my career and work activities a common theme of personal and professional development.

Today I find contributing to the development and the success of others to be a rewarding and inspiring experience - a true win-win.
