Executive Skills
What skills to develop to best hold your role as a manager or leader? What tools to rely on? What subjects to put into practice?
Spotting and fighting our defensive reasoning
We often adopt behaviors that are at odds with our values. Defense mechanisms, most often unconscious, are behind this phenomenon. How can we get rid of these defensive reactions?
Rehabilitating sensitivity within the company
A high level of sensitivity is rarely well regarded in the workplace. Yet this way of operating has numerous advantages. How can we give highly sensitive persons the room they require?
Taming procrastination
Tending to postpone until the next day what we could be doing that same day is a natural mechanism to manage our emotions. Rather than fighting this temptation, how can we channel it, or even take advantage of it?
Renewing the creative momentum of your teams
To foster creativity, rather than going to search for talents and methods outside the company, it might be equally beneficial to rely on internal forces. How can you unleash the creativity of your own teams?
Negotiate while protecting the relationship over time
A successful negotiation is foremost one that leads to implementing an acceptable agreement for each of the parties involved. How can you pursue your interests whilst protecting a constructive relationship with the other party?
Seeking inspiration from stoicism to manage stress
How can you remain clam when the situation becomes tense and escapes your control? In the turbulent environments of today, the precepts of stoicism are more topical than ever.
Deciding while under pressure
When we make decisions, we are inevitably subjected to biases—that are all the more powerful when we are under pressure and the challenge is at its highest. How can you nonetheless secure the vital strategic decisions?
