Laurent Terseur

I am an accredited APECS Accredited Master Executive Coach, also accredited as a Professional Certified Coach by ICF, and a Supervisor trained by the IDSUP institute in France.

I work with CEOs, C-suite, Leaders, Experts and Teams eager to reflect on how they focus, adapt, influence and collaborate, through reflexive conversations.

About my practice

My clients are native English/French speakers, and span across all seniority levels up to Board level and across sectors including banking, private equity, asset management, insurance, professional services, tech, telecoms, energy, food, luxury/fashion, publishing, oil&gas, aerospace, manufacturing...

The Lion’s share in my practice is Executive coaching, the rest being Supervision of coaches and a few founders/owners/CEOs of start-ups or SMEs.

Clients tell me they value my neutrality, my benevolence, my empathy, as well as the high levels of challenge and stimulation I provide them with.

They also mention that they appreciate my business acumen, and that the work with me feels relaxed yet deep and effective, opens new fields and avenues for their reflection, and also help them build a lasting discipline of awareness which serves them long after our coaching conversations.

Corporate Experience

I started my career as a Group Treasurer in industrial Mid-Caps, then served in sales and leadership roles in the Corporate and Investment Bank divisions of Deutsche Bank, JP Morgan and finally Barclays Corporate as a Senior Executive, reporting to the ExCo and member of the Europe Senior Leadership Team.

My experience of P&L, Leadership and Governance responsibilities in high-octane, highly competitive, complex and multicultural environments help me to understand first hand the dilemmas, pressure and ambiguity leaders and teams face in complex and transforming environments.

I learned, adapted and thrived with successive experiences in highly competitive and complex environments. I see now how rich and learning this journey was, with all shades of intellectual stimulation, adrenalin, bruises, scars, joys and satisfactions. Out of the achievements, the one that I cherish the most being that I purposefully maintained a balanced family life throughout.

As a Coach and a Supervisor, I now savor every day a little more everything that surprises and trigger or nurtures a deeper reflection.
