About Us
Emblazoned on a street art wall, commissioned especially for the front cover of Issue 2 of our award-winning 'Leading' magazine, the QuoLux™ brand has its roots in Latin and means 'whither the light' - providing light in a certain direction for others to follow, which is what leaders do.
QuoLux™ enables leaders to acquire the skills and develop their confidence to become the best they can be and in turn to coach and develop people in their organisations to be the best they can be.
We know how hard life can be when you’re in charge of a business, running a department or managing a team. It takes a special type of person to take on so much responsibility and develop the range of skills needed to be successful – a task that at times may seem impossible.

We know how hard life can be when you’re in charge of a business, running a department or managing a team. It takes a special type of person to take on so much responsibility and develop the range of skills needed to be successful – a task that at times may seem impossible.
Why should leaders struggle alone when they can gain from each other’s experience and knowledge or from specialist insight? Our aim is to provide business leaders, like you, with the support you need, in-person and on-line, to develop your skills, the skills of your people and improve your business’ prospects.
Founded over a decade ago, QuoLux™ is a family business with offices in Gloucestershire, UK and Salvador, Brazil. All facilitators are qualified coaches with a wealth of experience in successfully leading and growing businesses in home and international markets. We work with CEOs, Managing Directors, Board directors, senior managers and middle managers, right the way through to people in first-line management roles. We help leaders to develop their organisations and leadership at all levels to introduce a shared language and consistent approach.
