Louise Domingues · International Business Advisor

I help people and businesses grow, and connect, globally.

I bring together the human side and the business side of growth: the right people, developed and in the right place, and the right strategy to move forward. It is built on my own methodology, refined over fifteen years with more than three thousand people.

The method

A method of my own, built on people.

Simera means today in Greek. The Simera Method is the method of the here and now: of presence, essence and natural talent.

It starts from one idea: life is not short. It is the acceleration of modern life that disconnects us from ourselves and makes time feel like it is running out. When we reconnect to who we really are, life expands again, and so does what we are capable of.

The method works in three movements:

Interruption

Breaking the cycle of acceleration and pressure, and returning to a natural pace.

Reconnection

Coming back to your essence, your truth and your natural talent.

Realignment

Turning that into real direction: a career, a business, a life that fits who you are.

This is what sits beneath every piece of work, whether with a person or with a company. We don't start with a technique. We start with the human being, and build the path from there.

What I do

Two ways to work with me.

For your career · B2C

Executive careers abroad

A development programme and mentoring for professionals who want to grow into leadership or executive roles abroad, whether moving into leadership for the first time or already leading and aiming for the executive level. We work on who you are, where you want to go and the real path between the two, with the experience of someone who has built an international career and lives between two markets.

  • Leadership development, from first-time leader to executive level
  • Positioning and presence for the international market
  • Career transition and entry into new markets
  • Personal and professional development grounded in the method
  • Business idea development: taking an idea off the page, shaping it and testing whether it is worth pursuing

For your company · B2B

International Advisor in Global Business Solutions

For companies that want to grow, transform or expand into new markets. I combine strategy, an international network of partners and a strong foundation in education to give the company the support it needs at each stage.

1. Growth and international expansion

Working with partners and strategic alliances to support growth and expansion into new markets, bringing the right connections and capabilities at the right moment.

2. Developing companies and business owners

For local, small or large companies. I come in, understand what is not working, develop a strategy and bring in partners to deliver it, rooted in education and training.

3. Educational programmes for people and operations

Training programmes focused on leadership and process improvement, plus keynotes and talks for teams, companies and events, on themes such as happiness and mental health at work.

Louise Domingues speaking on stage
Speaker & host

The most valuable conversations rarely happen by accident.

I speak and host conversations about business growth, leadership, internationalisation, people and what is shaping the future of work and business, on stage, on panels and in the rooms where ideas turn into opportunities.

Whether the audience is a boardroom, a conference or an international gathering, my role is the same: to bring the right people into the right conversations, and the right ideas into the right rooms.

My ecosystem

A trusted network, curated by me.

Over the years I have built a trusted network of companies and partners across different industries and markets. These are organisations I know, work alongside and believe in.

When a business or a professional in my world needs one of them, I don't just point to a name. I make the introduction, with context, so the right people meet at the right moment, often on better terms.
