Do you notice that the changes in the world are going faster and faster? Are you running behind the facts or would you prefer to choose yourself?

Technology is gaining more and more influence. Will you let that all just happen to you? Of course not. Technology can also make your life easier. You must know how.

Together we will discover how we can make your life more enjoyable, easier or more interesting by exploring your future. If you keep doing what you did, you keep the results you are used to. But if you want more or better or different, how are you going to achieve that?

What do you achieve with it?

- You are better prepared for the future
- You can apply for a new job more easily
- You can better understand the usefulness of certain subjects in your studies, which gives you more motivation
- Your company responds better to new developments than your competitors
- Everyone wants to talk to you at network meetings, because you have something interesting to say.

Who is this suitable for?

- You are still in school but you have doubts about study or work after school
- You have been working for a while, but you feel that there is more to you than comes out now. You just don't know how to change that.
- You haven't been working for a while, but you want to get back to work. How do you get a nice job that really suits you?
- You get crazy about all beeps and notifications but only get stressed out of it. How do you arrange all that technology so that you benefit from it?
- In your work you notice that little has changed in the last three years. Everything is exactly as it was then, while technology is racing past. How do you get your department or your company involved in innovation? How can you take advantage of everything that you can find online nowadays for almost nothing?

As Commissioner of the Future, I have been helping people and companies for many years to better prepare for the rapidly changing world. My focus is on technology, on a human scale. So don't implement very large and complicated software systems or purchase all kinds of machines. No, it could be smarter. Because of this I work in different fields, I can let you learn from the discoveries of others. In addition, I read more than 50 books a year on various topics related to new technology, science, innovation and management. You benefit from it without having to read them all yourself.

- You are employed and you would like to take the step towards an entrepreneurial activity because you have an idea, a professional project that you would like to realize and put on the market,
- you have already launched your business and you would like to have an outside perspective and take the time to take stock.

Most of the stages are done with official authorities, some with an accountant, several stages are done alone and there are stages where the entrepreneur feels the desire or the need to share, to take stock, to ask the right questions, to discuss with a person completely outside the project. These are the phases where the entrepreneur calls on the coach.

Specializing in supporting people who are launching into entrepreneurship, during the courses the following elements can be addressed depending on demand and need, because each request is unique and therefore personalized:

has. define the key stages of the project with retro planning,
b. (re)visit the project’s blocking points and stimulation points,
vs. know your success and failure strategies,
d. allow yourself time to reflect and step back to ask yourself the right questions,
e. implement appropriate actions,
f. develop your relational network,
g. choose allies and influence strategies,
h. ensure the maintenance of the vision and competitive advantage of your business,
i. find your own balance between private and professional obligations

Here is an illustration of entrepreneurship support:

The context explained by the client

I needed coaching support at a time when my company's business was growing exponentially. This situation took the company to another scale with the opening of 2 new stores in 6 months, renovation work and an explosion in the number of employees, from 1 to 12.

The customer's request

Manage the exponential development of the activity.

The approach to this support in the words of the client

The first objective was to channel efforts and establish priorities: to be able to distribute tasks according to their degree of priority and urgency. Then, it was necessary to do in-depth work on the schedule to manage tasks as well as unforeseen events. We finally got down to scheduling to cope with the scale of administrative work. We also discussed leadership in depth.

I needed to think about how to lead firmly while remaining polite, empathetic, and motivating for teams. It was key for me to communicate taking into account the personalities, profiles and operating methods of everyone in the team. Finally, we worked on the theme of balance between professional and personal life. How to stay focused on the professional goal while taking into account personal and family life? How can I coordinate these two aspects of my life as fairly as possible? I had the feeling of being everywhere and nowhere at the same time, which created enormous dissatisfaction for me at the time. During the coaching sessions, we simulated concrete situations and role plays to cover all possible situations in relation to the reality of the moment. It was a lot of preparation work so as not to be caught off guard once on the ground.

The results obtained expressed by the client 6 months after the coaching support

As my coaching journey progressed, I implemented what we talked about during the sessions. I was thus able to achieve my goals and concretely witness my progress as a leader. I also observed how I gradually developed my abilities to manage a much larger volume of business. This support has largely contributed to my success.
