Meet Christopher, The Listening Philosopher
In a world that is increasingly divided, the path of harmony and understanding is both timely and timeless. Welcome to the Way of Phi, where we explore the art of "Dynamic Balance"—bridging gaps within ourselves, between each other, and across communities. This space invites you to pause, reflect, and reconnect with the deeper aspects of who you are and how you engage with the world.
The journey here is one of profound transformation, one that acknowledges both the Circular and the Linear aspects of life. It’s an invitation to cultivate inner harmony and to let that harmony ripple outward, creating bridges of connection and compassion. True change begins within—and from here, we have the power to influence the world around us.
Are you ready to step onto the path?
Christopher is a highly acclaimed philosopher who focuses on how to bridge polarisation through Dynamic Balance. By creating welcoming spaces for individuals, teams or larger groups he offers new methodologies built on ancient wisdom to help bridge gaps within and between humans.

What You and your Business Needs
A Chief Philosophy Officer, a CΦO, brings the transformative power of deep listening to your organisation. By simply being present and holding space for conversations, a CΦO sharpens minds, fosters creativity, and enhances collaboration. When people feel genuinely heard, they become more engaged, confident, and innovative. This subtle yet profound influence helps clear away outdated assumptions, allowing teams to focus on what truly matters. In an ever-complex world, the presence of a CΦO cultivates clarity, connection, and a sharper organisational edge.
Benefits for the organisation:
-
Sharper, More Engaged Teams
A CΦO brings a presence that sharpens everyone in the room. By holding space for deep listening and reflection, they empower your team to see beyond surface-level solutions and explore more meaningful, sustainable ideas. -
Enhanced Creativity and Collaboration
When people feel seen and respected, they unlock their full creative potential. The CΦO’s presence fosters a sense of connection and trust, which is essential for collaborative problem-solving in complex business environments. -
A Culture of True Listening
It’s not just about what the CΦO says—often, it's about what they don’t say. By modelling the "Noble Art of Listening," the CΦO leads by example, encouraging others to listen more deeply. This creates a ripple effect, transforming how your team communicates and collaborates. -
Removing Obstacles, Sharpening Focus
Just like a pencil sharpener removes unnecessary layers to reveal the point, the CΦO helps your organization shed outdated assumptions and see what truly matters. This process isn't about quick fixes, but about refining your team’s ability to focus on what is essential.

Testimonials

"I had the honor and the pleasure to work with Christopher as my personal philosopher. I thought I already had a pretty good level of self-awareness, regarding my struggling with self-acceptance and motivation, until I started working with Christopher. He created a unique environment that led me to take deep dives, which uncovered new hidden layers. He showed me how to shift from my thoughts to my emotions to my body sensations and what to make out of each. But it was not just about taking in sensations, emotions and thoughts. Christopher shared with me techniques and exercises, which allowed me to “practice” new experiences, so that I familiarize myself with what to expect from them and embrace the “new” into my repertoire. In simple terms: Christopher helped me improve my inner peace and make room for motivation and creativity to flourish. I highly recommend him to anyone who wishes to explore themselves deeper in order to live a more fulfilling life."

"Christopher Sigmond helped to put our division on track. As a new head, I was aware of the old problems and was eager to make changes. But I had no plan, no clear priorities or a team willing to back me up. Instead of starting to give the advice right away, Christopher spent much time listening, helping me to realize and articulate the issues and reach to the deep root causes of the problems. He let me be a co-creator of the leadership programme that we ran together for my team. We could tailor the contents to the people we worked with, the current situation and the problems we faced. We did the ‘usual staff’ that coaches normally sell—formulated the vision, set up goals, did some team-building. Yet it did not feel ‘usual’ at all—it was highly personal, ours, heart-warming and engaging for further actions. Christopher’s philosophical touch on leadership definitely made it a very different and unique experience."

"I run a group for business owners and we seek to support them in many diverse ways. In February 2023 we hired Christopher to run a masterclass on Listening, a skill that many of us need to work on and become stronger at. There were 19 of us on the Zoom, for 90 minutes. This was one of the most profound sessions we have run, [his] 'Listening Circle' was a unique, emotional and highly moving experience for everyone. It is hard to define the impact apart from stating that people felt energised and highly aroused by this, it was a powerful way to [learn] the way we should all listen, not just for the sake of others being heard, but for our own needs, even in silence, we learned the power of just 'listening'.
I can highly recommend this to businesses and to leaders, as a way to elevate the soft skills in business and have no doubt this will impact the energy in your business and in yourself."
