** Starting Up Today - Your business your way ** (learn from my experience and mistakes)

You are or want to work for yourself. Freedom. The potential rewards. You have an idea. A good idea.

But where do you start? What’s necessary to get the idea in a company form, so that you can get paid for your idea. And make profits.

Over the last three decades, I’ve set up a number of firms - and grown them into 7 figure revenue operations. From scratch. Through thick and thin. I’ve learned what matters, and what doesn’t.

I’d like to share this with you.

Extra information

Let me know where you are in the start-up process and what you’d like advice on.

TRAINING TO EMBODY EFFECTIVE MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION IN THE PROFESSIONAL FRAMEWORK
➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating. ➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and advanced know-how. ➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This executive is in charge of transmitting information and directives from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively. ➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission. ➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring. ➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session. Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020). ➤ THE TRAINER: Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words. ➤ PLACE, TIMETABLE, PRICES - Locations: Geneva-Lausanne-Friborg-Zurich-Neuchâtel-Lugano-Montreux-Bâle-Neuchâtel-Berne-Lucerne-Bruxelles-Luxembourg-Paris-Lyon. But currently and until further notice, only by videoconference in accordance with national recommendations on Covid, this format also unanimously suitable for those accompanied. -Apart from the classic advantages of videoconferencing (time savings related to travel, eco-responsibility, increased scheduling flexibility, etc.), the quality of the session & the interaction remain the same. In addition, the notes taken during the sessions are immediately transcribed on the session chat and are automatically transmitted to you so that you can browse them during and after the session if you wish. - Hourly fees: To support each other and to be pleasant to you in this period of covid19 and in a spirit of solidarity, the fees have been temporarily reduced.

Roberto
Spanish classes, Exam preparaiton, Business and finance vocabulary, literature and syntaxis, gym coach
My name is Roberto , and I am a Spanish teacher for foreigners and a university student. I am fluent in English because I have lived abroad and have studied my whole life in both international and bilingual schools, which brings a lot of fluency to my classes. I am also a person with virtually unlimited patience and very calm; I strive to be well understood and have no problem explaining something several times. Regarding Spanish classes, I can provide both colloquial and slightly more sophisticated and cultured vocabulary, applied to various contexts. My main objective in these classes is to make them as dynamic as possible, and rather than imparting a theoretical class, the methodology we will follow will be to engage in conversations as we get to know each other and share curiosities. With this approach, we will leave behind the fear of making mistakes and find a safe and comfortable space in which to develop the class. I also have a group of teachers who will accompany us in many activities, and with whom we can join together to learn collectively.
