WHAT IS MONPHILOSOPHE?
WHAT IS MONPHILOSOPHE?
Philosophy is the best tool for life, everyday, for everyone.
MonPhilosophe is a new service offering philosophical consulting through private sessions, corporate events, and workshops for grown-ups and children.
MonPhilosophe is more than a personal coach. Because you already have the best coach ever. Just unleash your mind.
MonPhilosophe is not a psychologist. Because there’s nothing wrong with you. So let’s take it from there!
MonPhilosophe is more than a private teacher, MonPhilosophe is more than a tutor. MonPhilosophe is an instrument for you to unravel your own thoughts.
Philosophy helps you think clearer, so that you can live better.
WHO IS TOMMASO W. BERTOLOTTI?
WHO IS TOMMASO W. BERTOLOTTI?
Tommaso Wayne Bertolotti (born of an Italian dad and a French-American mom) is a certified Logic-Based Therapy consultant, and he earned his Ph. D. in Philosophy at the University of Pavia. The University of Pavia is one of the most renowned universities in Italy and among the twenty most ancient, continuously operating universities in the world.
He spent part of his post-doctoral studies in Paris, at the Ecole Normale Supérieure and at the engineering school ParisTech Télécom.
Working in academia, he leveraged the importance of philosophy in dealing with contemporary societal issues, for instance the necessity to devise coping strategies with the overwhelming change brought about by technology.
He was invited at workshops and conferences at the European Commissions’ Joint Research Center in Ispra, at the Microsoft HQ in Paris and as an expert at major forums in Bruxelles focusing on the protection of children online.
Even with a significant record of publications, he wasn’t happy with the possibility of disseminating philosophical knowledge from academia, which didn’t leverage the impact that philosophy could have on people’s lives.
After collaborating with the French media think tank Reporters d’Espoir, he decided to start his own philosophical consulting brand.
ABOUT THE MONPHILOSOPHE LOGO
ABOUT THE MONPHILOSOPHE LOGO
The MonPhilosophe logo and the smart owls nesting throughout the website are the product of Mariachiara Tirinzoni‘s wonderful creative skills. Here is how she explains the rationale behind the logo:
The business world is constantly evolving. One may wonder wonder: what is the actual currency? It’s all about attention, about thought. Thinking, knowing, being aware, these are some of the greatest forms of wealth. That is why it is necessary to increase one’s wealth of thought in every sphere: family, social, and corporate.
That is why MonPhilosophe could only be represented by a little owl, the trusted companion of Athena, the Greek goddess of wisdom: it is the same owl that was portrayed on the ancient coins of Athens, the mother city of thought, of philosophy and of a distinct culture that was based on the clarity of reasoning.
The MonPhilosophe logo is born from the modern reinterpretation of a classic symbol, but still able to talk to whom, today, is like Athena’s owl: eyes wide open, tiptoed, fearless of their perplexity but eager to come to the truth about oneself, about the mechanisms one is influenced by, and about the reasoning that surrounds everything.
