A professional actor for over 15 years, I've had the privilege of a very eclectic career. I've performed for 3 spectators in small Parisian café-theaters, for over 6,000 in Zenith arenas across France, and for several million live on television, in sketches, dramas, farces, thrillers, romances, and improv... I am also a writer and director, a very satisfying career.
In 2020, the pandemic shattered all my projects in theater, and as the situation was slow to recover, I quickly ran out of resources. I urgently needed another profession, but what? Waiter? Bike courier?
Anxiety mounted when a friend asked for advice on preparing a presentation. How to breathe, project my voice, tame stress, express myself with my body, use my emotions? It was obvious: my professional tools could be useful beyond my own field. This is what I had to do: Public Speaking Trainer.
That very evening, I created my company, a training program, and 15 days later, I was at Microsoft. KAMs, leadership teams, in groups, in private, on-site, remotely, in English, I was thrust far out of my comfort zone into the corporate world, and I must admit I derived great pleasure from it.
I find it very rewarding to see my trainees discover their oratorical abilities and feel that a new world is opening up to them. And even though my acting activities have resumed, I want to develop my coaching work.
Public speaking tools are simple; everyone is capable of giving a good speech because we use these tools daily; you just need to learn how to use them.
So, as they say in theater: “ask for the program!” I would be delighted to meet your teams to pass on my storytelling skills. I know they will progress quickly and learn as much about public speaking as they will about themselves.
