Laurence Arpi is a speaker, coach, and stage director, recognized specialist in embodied leadership. A graduate of Sciences Po Paris in International Relations at only 20 years old, she has developed a unique expertise at the crossroads of the artistic world and corporate leadership. Her international journey — spanning physical theatre and executive coaching — led her to a powerful conviction: body intelligence is the most underused resource in modern leadership.
Trained by the founding masters of physical theater and leading international leadership mentors in London, Laurence Arpi has built an unprecedented bridge between art and business. She has developed an original approach in which the body becomes a strategic tool for communication, confidence, and impact. Through this method, she helps executives, managers, and speakers enhance their presence, harness their physical and emotional resources, and inspire their teams in an increasingly complex and uncertain world.
As both a stage director and entrepreneur, she guides leaders in developing their charisma, stage impact, and speaking performance, drawing on techniques from physical theatre. Her approach is rooted in the belief that a leader's authenticity and power emerge from their ability to fully inhabit their body and embody their values.
Author of Mon corps a des choses à me dire (My Body Has Something to Tell Me, Eyrolles Publishing), Laurence Arpi has become a reference in conscious leadership and embodied communication. A sought-after speaker, notably within APM (Association for Management Progress), she works with international companies and organizations to restore the body's rightful place in performance and influence.
Her conferences are true experiences — inspiring, dynamic, and deeply human — inviting everyone to reconnect head, heart, and body to regain power, balance, and presence.
