About TANTO42

Leadership isn't learned in a classroom. It's cultivated through experience, reflection, and connection - with yourself, with others, and in the moments when the map no longer matches the terrain.

TANTO42 was founded on one conviction: leaders who think well, lead well. Not louder, not faster - with more clarity, more intention, and more genuine connection to those they lead.

TANTO42 brings executive coaching, team facilitation, and workshop design together as one practice - built so growth in a single leader can move outward through their team and their organisation.

We're industry-agnostic on purpose - the deepest leadership challenges are human, not sector-specific. And we bring academic rigour, real-world grounding, and genuine curiosity to every engagement, without leaning on formulas or playbooks imported from somewhere else - just careful attention to your specific context.

Why TANTO42

So much of what you want it to be.

"Tanto" in a lot of Latin languages means "so much". Leadership rarely comes down to one skill, one conversation, or one insight. It's the accumulation of the small work: the difficult conversation handled well, the assumption questioned in time, the moment of reflection before reacting. We named our practice for the sum of these.

42, in the language computers think in, is the wildcard - the asterisk that stands for anything, connects everything, and lets a search run past its usual limits. That's the other half of the name: an openness built in on purpose, so nothing about how we work blocks out what's possible.

Our principles

How we work

  • GROW

    Grow from within

    We don't hand over answers - we build the capacity in you to find them. Every engagement is designed to leave people more capable than they are today.

  • THINK

    Think before you decide

    Slow down to speed up. We create the conditions for teams to test their assumptions, pressure-check their logic, and make calls they can stand behind - together.

  • LEAD

    Lead with intention

    Leadership is a practice, not a title. We help organisations build the self-awareness and discipline to exercise that practice consistently, long after we've gone.

The core team

Different perspectives, one practice

Difference is the point. Our Team does not share a background, an industry, or a way of seeing a problem. That's what lets us build work that endures, across borders as readily as within them.

Portrait of Corentin

Corentin

Executive Coach & Strategic Advisor

Over twenty years leading teams, in 7 languages (first in the automotive industry, leading up to 1,000 people across 8 countries, then in agrifood and bioindustry), taught Corentin one thing: lasting performance comes from people, from their presence, their clarity, their ability to truly cooperate. In 2013, he supported his first managers, teams and organizations through transformation, as a coach. Corentin works both in the room and in nature immersion, depending on what best serves the situation. As a professional coach and certified canoe-kayak instructor, this dual skill set lets him offer both formats rather than just one, for leaders and teams across all sectors (companies, non-profits, public administrations, freelancers), in transition or asking hard questions: personal alignment, team growth, and strategic transformation of the organization.
