The premise is that:
The premise is that:
- All people have the potential to lead and to cultivate their leadership skills.
- Leadership development is needed in organisations everywhere, as a lever that can and will change the world.
- Leadership development needs to be made accessible and transmissible
- By helping individuals to understand & develop themselves, they will be able to actively choose more fulfilling and purposeful lives.
- By training individuals to understand & develop with others, they will be able to create trust and empowering relationships.
- By giving individuals the tools to lead themselves and with others, they will be able to motivate and inspire people towards creating a regenerative future for all
"For me this was a very valuable experience. I felt fortunate to be in the training and the three days I spent there with some interesting people who, like myself, wanted to learn about leadership, were simply amazing. I really feel I have gone through an intense journey of discovering myself. I have learned much more than I thought I would. I’m now way more aware of my leadership capabilities and how my behavior affects others. I strongly recommend the trainings with Stanley and Philippine to any leader who wants to be more effective in what they do.”

“I feel I have embarked in a self-awareness journey, with immediate impact in my personal and professional life. I left this experience feeling inspired to be a better person. I believe everyone wants to be good at what they do. But often we lack the tools to be so, and many times we are not even aware of the potentially bad/good impact of our actions on our fellow human beings.
I believe in true connections and meaningful relationships. I felt connected to every participant, including the promoters, and that has opened my eyes for the possibility to connect to everyone around me which is priceless and for me the whole reason for our existence.”
