About Stephane

Passionate about transmission, creativity, and human collaboration, I support, design, and facilitate various groups through tailor-made workshops, where visuals are one of my preferred tools.

My approach integrates participatory methodologies, visual tools, and coaching techniques, in a benevolent communication inspired by NVC and Solution Focus.
I wear several hats in my professional practice:

  • As a COACH, I support organizations and groups in their development:
o Individual coaching: Clarify one's role, gain autonomy.
o Group coaching: Improve interactions and joint performance.
o Organizational coaching: Align strategy and actions, anchor a culture of continuous improvement / OKRs.
  • As a FACILITATOR, I energize exchanges and facilitate co-creation through participatory workshops and tailor-made processes:
o Visual approaches: Clarify ideas, strengthen understanding.
o Workshop facilitation: Emerge decisions, innovation, and engagement.
  • As a GRAPHIC FACILITATOR AND ILLUSTRATOR, I integrate the visual dimension into facilitation and also offer specific services such as:
o Real-time visual capture during workshops or events.
o Creation of visual canvases to support ideas, narratives, and strategies.
o Illustration to support understanding and learning.
  • As a TRAINER, I transmit skills related to my areas of expertise:
o Agility: Fundamentals, Scrum, Kanban, test culture, OKRs, Lean.
o Facilitation: Collective dynamics in person and remotely.
o Visual thinking: Introduction to sketchnoting and graphic facilitation and all its daily applications.
