Coaching and background
Paul Terrasson Duvernon is a Professional Coach, specialized in Performance & Leadership coaching, supporting executives, entrepreneurs, managers, and leaders in their pursuit of sustainable excellence and balance. He also works as a Consultant on Strategy, Management and Leadership, stepping in anytime .
With an exceptional academic background (top 10 engineering school in France, top 3 technological university in Sweden) and 5 years of experience in Operations, Growth, and Product across leading European startups, major corporations, and VC funds, Paul has an intimate understanding of the invisible challenges leaders carry: constant pressure, mental overload, decision-making complexity, and the tension between ambition and balance.
His practice is distinguished by its depth and integral approach. Paul doesn’t coach surface-level issues. He works with verticality on unconscious mechanisms, thought patterns, value conflicts, and somatic dimensions that truly shape performance and leadership.
His approach combines deep coaching, behavioral psychology, and elite mental preparation techniques, grounded in Neuroscience (108 Milliards), Positive Intelligence (Stanford), stress management (Yale), and enriched by his observations at the cognitive performance center of Olympique Lyonnais.
Paul works across four core areas: sustainable mental performance, self-leadership, interpersonal and managerial dynamics, and support through pivotal transitions. Recognized for his exceptional listening capacity, analytical precision, and surgical accuracy in questioning, he creates rapid breakthroughs. His past clients include Forbes Awarded entrepreneurs, Fortune 500 Managers, deeptech founders, and VC investors.
His method favors simplicity in questioning to open new perspectives, work on identity and values to align performance with authenticity, and somatic and mental preparation approaches for concrete, lasting impact. Paul challenges the status quo, places responsibility in his clients’ hands, and trusts in silence, intuition, and emergence.
His mission: to create more conscious, more effective, and balanced leaders, capable of performing sustainably without losing themselves.
