THE CLARISTRAT PATH
A complete architecture
for human leadership
at the highest levels.
Claristrat programs develop the judgment, systemic fluency, and developmental range that senior leaders need to operate where complexity is the baseline. And to build that capability in others.
Each program is a credential, the first one unlocking your ICF ACC accreditation. Together, they form a career-long path.

IS THIS FOR YOU?
If…
You have reached a level where standard development offerings feel beneath you — or beside the point.
MBAs, leadership programs, workshops… You've done these and you know the limitation. They pile you up with facts, which at this point in time makes judgment take increasingly more brain power.
You want to develop your intuitive grasp of interconnected systems for next level judgement.
You are highly effective but something feels misaligned. Your motivation is not the same.
You have managed high complexity for decades, but it's never time to deal with your own valid questions. You need a system - and time-space - to regain the internal clarity you need, to reach your next level.
This is not (yet) a crisis, but it’s a widening gap. You need to figure it out so you can also help others at the same crossroad.
You want to develop the people around you — but their mindsets get in the way.
Advice isn't enough anymore. There is a natural limit in how you can lead others through tough questions without imposing your own views.
When instinct or leading by example won’t bring you there, what you need is a method — not a style.
“I can't begin to express how valuable this development was (is). I wish I had done this as a younger leader. Even if you don't want to be a coach, if you manage people, lead organizations, boards or teams, these skills are invaluable.”
— Arthur Fleischmann, Former Group CEO, john st. & Ogilvy Canada. Country Lead, WPP Canada · CEO, Sense.Maker
“The program was incredible and I would recommend it to anyone who wants to advance their coaching skills. Fabiana is an outstanding leader and coach.”
— Esther Benzie, Interim CEO, Association of Canadian Advertisers · Former VP of Brand and Advertising, CIBC · Board Director
“I had the privilege of working with Fabiana and the experience was truly transformative. She listens intently and quickly uncovered insights that I hadn't recognized yet. Her ability to dig deep while creating a safe, insightful and supportive space made every conversation both powerful and actionable.”
— Jessica Tran, SVP Global Training, Rapiscan · Board Director · Entrepreneur
“I've done MBAs and executive development. Nothing came close to this level of personalization. Fabiana honed in on my specific challenges with refreshing honesty. I left every session with come-to-Jesus moments and a clear path forward..”
— Joey Jollymore, Senior Partner and SAP Service Lead, Americas, EPI-USE Labs · Former General Manager, IT Retail, JD Irving
SCIENCE-BASED HUMAN DEVELOPMENT
For leaders who've
outgrown most rooms.
Deepen the one skill
AI cannot replace.
Claristrat programs decode the human architecture behind high-stakes leadership. Develop clarity, judgment, and coherence under pressure. Structured the ability to build it in others.
-
The method is already operating in your current role the moment you begin. You are not learning something to deploy later: you are developing now, in the room you are already in. That integration is supported by corporate and commercial foundations built into the program: frameworks, proposals, and portfolio optionality for those formalizing the new capability.
-
Every cohort is admission-gated and intentionally capped. You will work alongside senior executives, leadership consultants, and C-suite members across industries - not a mixed audience. The cohort itself is part of the learning. That is why admission is required and group size is capped. Application and interview is required for optimal placement.
