METHODOLOGICAL APPROACH
We work on three levels: the individual, the relationships between individuals and the group.
Our approaches are varied (e.g. collective intelligence or Design Thinking), and we choose and combine them to adapt to your challenges and objectives. Our actions always have one thing in common: we work on the team’s resources, identity, values, habits, beliefs, aspirations and fears.
THE COACHING SESSION
Our work is spread over three stages: Preparation – Group action – Follow-up.
Our approach is comprehensive and always tailor-made. The format and coaches are therefore chosen to meet your objectives. Our actions are time-bound and based on the depth of the work involved.
