« Through the 6 primary emotions that make up the emotional human ‘software’, Nadine shows us in an obvious way that the correct use of our emotions is an efficient tool when it comes to realise our ambitions, even more than the intellect. Her very direct and gentle speech re-echoes in our professional and personals lives. »

She hosts the following conferences: “Put your emotions in the service of your ambitions” and “Dealing with conflicts to work better together”. Her interventions are rich, living, interactive, entertaining, illustrated with examples that echo to everyone’s experience and with keys that are easy and usable by everyone.

« In response to a request for a management training, Nadine has known how to create a bespoke module while taking into consideration the difference of maturity between the participants on the managerial culture.
Beyond the content that was powerful, mastered, illustrated with concrete examples and really pragmatic, she knew how to make us think about the know-how as well as our social skills.
Her educational originality is to approach problematics such as conflict management, problem solving, the position of the manager or the director by sharing the “good practices” but most of all by making us think on the impacts of our emotions, the importance of assertiveness…
Her experience as a psychotherapist and her knowledge of the company allow her to illustrate her trainings with examples that are not only from the corporate world.
This method allows to take a step back but also helps to speed up the effectiveness of the training for a change of the behaviour.
Finally, Nadine brings a lot of kindness, listening and adaptation to the expectations while sharing her convictions: her trainings are lived as real privileged moments. »
