Develop Clarity was born in Sophia Antipolis, in the South of France.

​

My name is Karine MATHIEU, I have been playing tennis at competitive level for many years. It taught me ways to train concentration and mental. Since that time, I love setting myself goals and challenging myself to stretch my comfort zone personally and professionally.

​

I have been working for around 20 years in the optimization of companies' performance and in the management of IT projects always more complex.

 

In 2014, I moved in Boston as part of a program leading the biggest Hotel IT programme in the world,  aiming at completely reinventing the reservation system of the largest hotel chain.

​

I learned so much on mindfulness in Boston, the city where Jon Kabat Zinn created the stress reduction clinic and the Centre for Mindfulness in Medicine at the University of Massachusetts Medical School. I have attended the MBSR there (Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction) and discovered its amazing benefits, as much for day to day life as for the professional side.  

 

By attending the Search Inside Yourself programme in New York in 2018, I discovered how mindfulness can be used to develop emotional intelligence in order to manage complex situations at work, just as I used those techniques beforehand playing tennis.

​

I got the Search Inside Yourself Teacher certification in San Francisco. And I was the first teacher to translate and teach the programme in French in Sophia Antipolis during summer 2019. I am now actively teaching mindfulness and emotional intelligence, planting the seeds of compassionate leadership.
