Pierluigi Meloni

Pierluigi Meloni

Pierluigi came into the world of IT the traditional way, via a degree in computer science and several positions as a software engineer and software architect. However, he quickly realized that IT experts are often reduced to their programming skills and are often told exactly what to do and how to do it. This is actually crazy, because nobody would tell experts in other industries like a doctor or a car mechanic how to solve a problem. So Pierluigi skilled up beyond code and became active in the early phases of IT projects: the Why and the What. He quickly realized that soft skills are a silent game changer for the quality of solutions and, above all, for career advancement. Through various management and leadership positions, he made it to C-level and finally decided to set up his own e-learning academy to teach soft skills to IT professionals. Pierluigi is known for his thought-provoking and humorous presentations at conferences.

Charles-Louis de Maere

Bringing people together is something that lives on through my workshops and training. Whether they take place online or on-premise, I facilitate workshops and learning experiences that focus on high participation, on learning by doing and verifying that the concepts are integrated. I use Live Online Learning Activities to ensure people get a chance to practice their understanding of the new concepts.

What better way is there to give meaning to what we say than to draw to make our thoughts explicit? When we add visual information to what we’re saying, suddenly our intention becomes much more precise, and we can begin to work on shared understanding. This is why I love bringing people in contact with the power of Visual Thinking, of getting back to our roots and using pen and paper to bring people closer together.

Stories are another option for bringing sensitive topics to the surface, which I recently started to explore through my self-development practice, as well as during numerous Around the world in (less than) 80 days workshops throughout the past years!

Cyril Clergeau

Cyril Clergeau

J’entendais durant mon enfance et mon adolescence, certain(e)s de mes camarades rêver de devenir informaticien, médecin, mécano, sportif de « haut » niveau, chanteur, plus rarement entrepreneur, manager ou dirigeant de société…

Pour ma part, je crois que j’ai toujours voulu prendre soin des autres humains – et non humains aussi – et de donner envie aux autres d’être plus heureux, de les convaincre du bonheur qu’il y a à prendre soin de sa propre vie et de nos écosystèmes pour aider à passer à l’étape d’après.

J’ai passé mes quinze dernières années à observer, capter l’énergie des groupes, faire des petits pas à leur côté pour de grands effets, travailler avec les forces de chacun plutôt que de vouloir « corriger » les défauts, recycler les « sois disant » déchets dans les groupes pour faire émerger l’innovation…

Cette liste n’est pas exhaustive, mais donne déjà un bon aperçu de ce qu’un Biomim’Agiliste, comme moi, a en tête et applique lors de la rééducation de la pensée des écosystèmes humains.

Soutenu et conforté dans mon identité ainsi que dans mes engagements profondément humanistes, il y a un an, j’ai co-fondé La Libellule Optimiste pour {ré} apprendre à {ré} humaniser les organisations pour impliquer les collaborateurs et collaboratrices dans une agilité durable qui a du sens et génère de la plénitude.

J’organise des ateliers, des formations, mais aussi, j’accompagne les organisations pour vous faire ressentir à quel point l'entraide et l'interdépendance sont innées et facteurs d'évolution si on s’inspire du vivant.

Je conclurais sur cette phrase que j’utilise souvent lors de mes interventions : la nature est le meilleur modèle de prospérité sur terre et le biomimétisme d’écosystèmes est un des remèdes pour soigner les maux de nos organisations.

Envie de vous sentir vivant ? Je vous attends pour un voyage dans l’immense encyclopédie de plus de 3,8 Milliards d'années qu'est la Nature et venir découvrir notre démarche directement inspirée de notre terre mère !
