Edith Perreaut-Pierre

Developer of Potential Optimisation Techniques, consultant, trainer and mental coach

Career

I am a doctor of Medicine, a sports physician and specialised in mental preparation..

I developed the Potential Optimisation Techniques, known as the TOP® Method some thirty years ago. I provide expert training and support to individuals and teams to help them build their resilience and capacity to adapt in any situation, and to improve the quality of their recovery to manage fatigue and remain motivated over time.

I provide training in Potential Optimisation Techniques®, both on an inter-company basis and with tailor-made courses. I also supervise the Coévolution team of trainers, and the practitioners and specialists I have trained.

I also work in the field of psychosocial risks, in prevention and training, organisational and human factors and psycho-education (or therapeutic patient education).
