Tom
Declercq

Senior Consultant

Accompanying Tom, is a unique, unparalleled experience portfolio gained over numerous years within the prestigious walls of a leading Consultancy firm. His impressive career as an authentic leader saw him managing large teams, leading clients and teams through significant change, and creating inspirational long term strategic visions. Above and beyond all these, Tom is a Coach and a Mentor. His ability to connect deeply and genuinely with people invites a sense of rapid and resolute trust, from which a rewarding exploration of professional and personal goals can emerge, leading clients towards an empowering destination of heightened self-agency, fulfilment and satisfaction.

Tom’s work is governed by a desire to help others broaden their perspective, with the reassurance that any ensuing changes should occur ‘one small step at a time’. Tom is a master at creating a safe space in which people can envisage what is truly possible, and the simplicity of this motto supports them to achieve this in a steady, progressive way, recognising and overcoming any obstacles that might otherwise hinder the journey.

A wicked sense of humour accompanies a deeply empathic nature, and Tom credits his agile personality to the good fortune of having a rich and diverse group of friends. He is an advocate of equality, and extends this unequivocally to others – a  value that has earned him public recognition in Belgium through his unwavering support of female corporate talent.

Outside of professional interests, Tom dedicates his time to his two loyal labradors: still in their infancy, they keep him animated and dynamic, demanding regular walks, love and attention. In addition, Tom values quality time with his partner and friends, and proudly defends a well-earned reputation for being the last to leave a good party! When in need of some solitude, you can find him happily getting lost in a good book or one of his oldest and most loved story-collections: ‘Herge’s Adventures of TinTin’! This courageous protagonist has long been a source of inspiration for Tom’s own interest and curiosity in the wider world and he boasts an impressive array of TinTin memorabilia and figurines after many years of collecting!
