Alessandro De Angelis
My Qualification
Hello and welcome
I help people reconnect with clarity, direction, and presence during moments when life calls for change, a decision, or simply the courage to pause and listen inwardly.
My name is Alessandro De Angelis. I live in Rome, where I work as a professional coach supporting individuals and professionals in their personal and professional journeys. I have been an Executive Coach accredited by the International Coach Federation since 2016, but my work is rooted first and foremost in lived experience, not only in credentials.
I hold a degree in Economics and a Master’s in Finance, and I have worked in this field for many years. Alongside this path, from a very young age, I have cultivated a deep passion for sport and teaching. For a long time, these two worlds ran parallel—until they naturally converged into the way I now work as a coach.

THE TATAMI AS A METAPHOR FOR LIFE
The sport I have been teaching for many years is Kickboxing.
The place where I meet people is the tatami: a simple, honest space where you show up as you are, without masks.
On the tatami, I have listened to stories of struggle, fear, ambition, and the desire to reclaim confidence. Often, between one training session and the next, questions emerged that went far beyond sport—questions about work, relationships, identity, and meaning.
One evening, many years ago, during a conversation in a small bar in Bologna, something became clear to me: being present for people in moments of transition was something I had already been doing for a long time. From that insight came the decision to give structure, depth, and intention to this calling.
I began my formal coaching education, became accredited by the International Coach Federation, and continued to deepen my work in emotional awareness, including training based on the method developed by Paul Ekman. Because I believe that lasting change begins with learning to recognize and listen to our emotions.

ACCOMPANYING CHANGE
I continue my professional development with curiosity and respect for the complexity of human experience. I know that change is not always easy, and that it often requires courage, time, and a safe space in which to slow down.
Through my Life, Business, and Sport Coaching programs, I support people in:
• gaining clarity
• reconnecting with what truly matters
• taking responsibility for their choices
• rebuilding trust and autonomy
I do not offer ready-made answers or universal formulas. Instead, I create a space of presence and listening, where you can look honestly at where you are and consciously choose how to move forward.
If you feel that something within you is ready to shift—even if the direction is not yet clear—this may be the right place to begin.
I leave you with a thought that continues to guide me:
“Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”
THEY SAY ABOUT
In breve tempo con Alessandro ho potuto affrontare e superare alcuni limiti che mi ponevo da tutta la vita. Il percorso che mi ha proposto è stato assolutamente filologico e razionale, e mi ha finalmente aperto la mente a tutte le possibilità che non sapevo di aver sempre avuto.
Attraverso il percorso di coaching si concretizzano degli scenari nuovi da metabolizzare e percorrere. E’ stato davvero utile per affrontare le sfide organizzative, di gestione del tempo in particolare, sia in ambito lavorativo che personale. Grazie coach!
L’esperienza che ho fatto con Alessandro De Angelis è stata risolutiva per fare un cambio di passo nel mio ambito professionale. Ho rifondato il mio studio di Architettura con nuovi soci. Non escludo di ripetere questa esperienza con Alessandro al fine di delineare nuovi obiettivi.
