Coach professionnel, j’accompagne depuis plus de 15 ans managers, équipes et organisations à franchir des caps, en gardant l’humain et le vivant au cœur de l’action.

Mon approche s’appuie sur l’agilité, le coaching intégral et une inspiration tirée de la culture chinoise : écouter les cycles, cultiver l’équilibre, avancer avec justesse. J’aide les collectifs à retrouver du sens, à renforcer leur cohésion et à évoluer dans un environnement en mouvement.

J’installe des espaces de confiance, où chacun peut questionner ses repères et s’aligner avec ses aspirations.

J’allie écoute, transmission d’outils concrets et attention à ce qui fait vivre l’équipe, pour révéler le potentiel collectif.

J’accompagne les leaders à incarner une posture authentique, ancrée dans la réalité et attentive à l’équilibre humain.

Osez avancer autrement : mon accompagnement est une invitation à expérimenter, à progresser et à faire grandir le collectif, en lien avec le vivant.

Most leaders are great at what they do, but struggle to get their teams fully bought in. When communication lacks clarity and charisma, even the most talented teams become disconnected, unmotivated, and underperforming.
