Empowering young talents for tomorrow's leadership

Old keys won't open new doors. Disruptive environments require adaptative leadership skills.

The Grounded Nodes workshop experiences are designed to connect, collaborate and experiment. They provide young talents with fundamental skills for effective, resilient and collaborative leadership for tomorrow'.

background

We decided to found Grounded Nodes with the ambition to build bridges between short-term and long-term, human and technology, innovation and responsibility.

We believe skills we need to navigate in tomorrow's world can not be taught through webinars or learnt in isolation but can grow when experienced individually and collectively.

Together, we aim to break down silos, to blend disciplines, to co-create forward-thinking solutions with leaders who are eager to shape the future

"Are you waiting for the future—or building it?"

With leadership experiences in global firms and start ups, I have advised companies during their business transformation phases. As advisor, investor and venture builder, I help business leaders move from idea to execution, bridging the gap between vision and reality. In a world where risk aversion kills innovation, it is key for leaders to create safe spaces for bold moves, experimentation, and meaningful transformation towards sustainability.

"As AI, compliance and sustainability collide, what does responsible leadership look like?"

With 20+ years in financial institutions, regulatory bodies, and global firms, I help leaders make sense of the new governance era—where AI regulations, ethical business, and sustainability strategies intertwine. As General Counsel, consultant, and independent director, I work with executives to turn complexity into clarity, ensuring that leadership decisions today remain future-proof tomorrow.
