Coach Professionnel et Equicoach certifié, j’accompagne les individus, les entreprises et leurs équipes dans le développement de leurs compétences personnelles et professionnelles.
Après une expérience de plus de 20 ans en entreprise à différents postes dont du management direct et transversal, et dans un contexte multi culturel, l’accompagnement a été pour moi comme une révélation.
Il y a plusieurs choses qui me lie à l’association Hope mais les deux vecteurs communs sont la médiation équine et l’accompagnement.
En effet le cheval est un animal incroyable et puissant : il nous révèle et nous aide à devenir meilleur ! Le cheval peut nous accompagner tout au long de notre vie et surtout à toutes les étapes clés de notre chemin de vie ! On parle souvent d’effet miroir avec le cheval et en Equicoaching on parle de son feedback juste, immédiat et authentique, il ne triche pas !
