Je suis tombé dans l’agilité il y a plus de 10 ans et depuis, j’accompagne les équipes et les organisations à mieux naviguer dans la complexité. Aujourd’hui, je co-pilote le centre agile de CACIB en position de freelance après avoir collaborer avec le centre agile et accompagner plus de 15 équipes, où j’aide les directeurs et les équipes à transformer leur façon de travailler, avec une approche pragmatique et humaine.

Mon parcours mélange coaching agile, coaching pro et transformation organisationnelle.

J’utilise des modèles comme l’Analyse Transactionnelle, la systémique ou le Solution Focus pour aider les organisations à dépasser leurs blocages et à créer un changement qui tient dans le temps.

À travers mes conférences, j’aime à partager des clés concrètes et des retours d’expérience sur la transformation des organisations, sans bullshit ni recette magique, mais avec des leviers actionnables dès demain basé sur l'approche Tete/Coeur/Corps, l'analyse transactionnelle et l'approche systémique.

Actually, I'm an Egyptologist and should (probably) be looking for mummies. However, I've preferred to use the last 16 years to find people who are still alive.

My focus is on data-driven recruiting processes and strategies, employer branding and a bit of workforce planning. For me, all of this is always under the banner of an excellent candidate experience.
