# Ignis Leadership

Ignis Leadership is an executive coaching practice based in Manchester that specialises in identity work for high-achieving leaders experiencing a disconnect between external success and internal authenticity. Founded by coach Yorik Tisseau, the business targets senior leaders and aspiring directors in their 40s who have built impressive careers but are quietly struggling with uncertainty, borrowed confidence, and a lack of clarity about who they are beneath their roles.

The core problem Ignis addresses is specific: leaders who excel at delivery but question their identity, experience anxiety and sleep disruption, and feel their confidence is performative rather than genuine. These clients have credentials and results but lack the internal settlement that should accompany their achievements.

What sets Ignis apart is its methodology. Rather than traditional coaching alone, the Clear Identity Method combines conscious-level coaching work with advanced techniques that operate at unconscious levels—addressing both how leaders think and their automatic responses. The three-stage process moves through clarity (distinguishing authentic desire from inherited ambition), identity (releasing protective patterns and rewiring automatic doubt), and confidence (allowing genuine presence to emerge naturally).

This is explicitly positioned as neither therapy nor crisis intervention, but precision work for leaders who want transformation that lasts. The business demonstrates credibility through client logos including BP, RWE, Manchester Business School, and the Energy Institute, signalling trust among significant organisations.
