Ingrid Beauvez-Denis has 30 years of professional experience in communication and wellbeing; this experience is anchored in her master’s degrees in psycholinguistics and conference interpreting, as well as diplomas in yoga and meditation therapy. Her career has been fueled by a passion for writing and sharing, a passion that she continues to bring to her work every day. She and her team counsel academics and people in charge of training in international organisations. They take on coachees who have specific training requests and want feedback on the exercises they did in the Learn the Ropes manuals.
