The coach

Bonjour! And welcome!I am an Executive coach: I help people and teams to identify their assets in order to achieve their projects according to their values and objectives.The values that inspire me are: humanism, authenticity, optimism, perseverance, solidarity and efficiency.
These values are also at the heart of my approach as a coach. For instance, I commit a percentage of my time as a volunteer coach in a charity.After my studies in European Affairs and international relations at Sciences Po Strasbourg, I dedicated the first part of my career to supporting French and international scientists with their research and innovative projects (in IT). I worked for research centres in the French public sector (LIP6 at Sorbonne Université and INRIA).
In my early thirties, I decided to focus on what I loved the most in all my previous jobs: supporting people.I am truly passionate about the vast topic of self-confidence, together with self-knowledge and self-awareness. I am convinced that knowing yourself better is the key to taking action in a serene and efficient way.My main method is to focus on your strengths and your assets: How can I help you to do better what you already do well? How can I help you do this in the contexts that matter the most to you, even under pressure?I also believe the intercultural dimension (culture, age, gender) could be a source of inspiration in any work context. I developed a strong interest in the cultural dimension as I experienced it myself. I had the opportunity to be immersed in international environments since the age of 18. During my studies, I lived in three different countries and I always worked in international environments, in French and English. My life at home happens to be in an international environment too, where English and French are spoken.When you are coached by me, you will have the chance to work with emotions and feelings! Our emotions and our body send us so much crucial information so why not use it?Metaphors and culture (photographs, literature) are often used in my sessions with my clients.I hope to see you soon,
Emilie
