Decision-Focused Advisory

Decision quality under pressure for leaders and organizations

ARYS operates at the intersection of leadership behaviour, decision-making, and performance—when the cost of error is real and the environment is noisy.

Our work focuses on:
– how leaders and teams make trade-offs under pressure (judgment drift, escalation, reversals)
– the limiting patterns that surface under strain (control, avoidance, over-functioning, conflict loops)
– influence and decision authority (making value legible to stakeholders who decide)
– anticipating people-risk early—before it becomes attrition, misalignment, or stalled execution.

We do not promise transformation. We support disciplined decisions and sustained performance through structure, evidence, and accountability. Clients remain the decision-makers; our role is to improve the quality of the trade-offs.

STANDARDS & FOOTPRINT

Swiss-based by design. International in practice.

ARYS Executive Partners is Swiss-based by design—grounded in rigor, neutrality, and discretion—and works internationally across executive profiling & selection, leadership training, and career strategy in complex environments where performance is tested under pressure.

Our standards are non-negotiable:
– Independence (conflict-of-interest discipline)
– Confidentiality (clear boundaries and controlled access)
– Ethical rigor (consent and responsible use of behavioural data)
– Methodological discipline (structured diagnostics and decision-grade outputs)

Our clients operate across Europe, the US, and other international contexts. We work wherever complexity increases — regardless of location.

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Dr. Rodica Zerguine

Dr Rodica Zerguine is the founder of ARYS Executive Partners, a Swiss-based advisory working internationally across executive profiling & selection, leadership training programs, and career strategy.

She brings 16+ years of experience as a senior leader in a global corporation—cross-functional and international in scope, with transformation delivery, P&L exposure, and people leadership across EMEA and global environments. She combines clinical training (Dentistry), an Executive MBA, training in applied neuroscience for decision-making under pressure, and ICF-certified Executive Coaching.

Her standard was shaped in environments where the cost of error is real: precision, evidence discipline, and responsibility under pressure—applied to career and people decisions that carry consequence.

In parallel, she built that global career while raising two sons and relocating across four countries. This experience informs ARYS’ perspective on sustainable performance: adaptation without self-erasure, resilience without over-functioning, and strategic progression that integrates family realities rather than denying them.

Rodica works exclusively with clients willing to engage with rigor, responsibility, and intellectual honesty.
ARYS reflects the same standard.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is ARYS a coaching firm?

No. ARYS is a decision-focused advisory. Coaching is used selectively within engagements when it supports implementation and measurable behaviour change—always in service of decision discipline and long-term outcomes.

How is ARYS different from executive coaching?

Traditional executive coaching is often open-ended and conversation-led. ARYS engagements are structured, decision-grade, and anchored in concrete outputs and governance standards. Coaching may be used as a method inside that structure when it strengthens follow-through.

Can you work with individuals as well as organizations?

Yes. ARYS supports leaders directly and also partners with executive search firms, HR teams, and organizations on profiling, development, and training—depending on the decision context.

Do you work only with clients in Switzerland?

No. ARYS is Swiss-based and works internationally across EMEA and global contexts, in-person or remote depending on the engagement.

Is the work confidential?

Yes. Confidentiality is the default. Information is shared only with designated decision-makers and handled within clear boundaries agreed upfront.

Do you work in person or remotely?

ARYS works both in person and remotely, depending on the decision context, stakeholder sensitivity, and confidentiality requirements. Remote engagements are conducted via secure channels; in-person work is used when complexity, alignment, or risk warrants it.
