About Remi

I'm an ICF PCC-certified executive coach specializing in IT Directors leading teams of 5-20+ people. Former VP of Finance with 25+ years of international leadership experience, I built the Navigator system after working 16-hour days leading a 16-person team. I know what it is like to be the bottleneck. Now I help IT Directors build autonomous teams without sacrificing career or family.

02 · Challenges

You're working harder than ever, but it's not getting you where you want to go

You've been passed over for promotion and told to be more strategic, but you're drowning in tactical work. Your family has noticed your absence and the stress you carry home. Exhaustion has led to missed deadlines, project failures, or costly errors. You're working 60+ hour weeks, missing family time, and your health is declining. You know this pace is unsustainable and dangerous.

03 · Outcomes

Lead a team that doesn't need you for every decision

You lead an autonomous team that makes decisions without waiting for you. You reclaim 10-20 hours per week to focus on strategic work, influence, and projects that earn promotions. You're present for your family again, with more energy, patience, and peace of mind. Leadership feels aligned with your values, not exhausting. You're no longer the bottleneck. You're the leader you wanted to be.

Strategic Clarity

Gain clarity on your strategic objectives and make confident decisions.

Proactive Leadership

Shift from reactive problem-solving to proactive strategy, maximizing your impact.

04 · Approach

To free driven leaders from the bottleneck they've become

In 2007, I was a Finance Manager working 16-hour days with a 16-person team. Exhaustion led to a $200K error. My kids asked, “Where is Mom?” They had stopped counting on me. I asked myself, “Why am I working 16 hours with 16 people?” That question changed everything. I built the Navigator system to change how I led. Over 15 years, I refined it internationally and became VP Finance. In 2023, I left corporate, became ICF-certified, and now coach IT Directors through that same transformation.
