      • HOW: Foster Body&Mind dialog and intelligence

        We move to recharge and learn.

        Learning is much quicker, deeper and long-term when our body language and intelligence is involved, being fully body-mind involved and in a playful framework.

        1:1 coaching

        " Coaching is about the whole person. Geraldine's coaching gave me a better understanding of my drivers and motivations, not only as a professional but also on the personal side, providing me more tools to grow as an individual. Also, it changed my leadership style learning how to appreciate each person's uniqueness and enabling them to be their best version

        What I enjoyed more about the coaching experience is that it is very fit for purpose and depending on the individual. Géraldine doesn't coach as a recipe or using a manual, rather trusting the coachee, not judging and providing the tools that would be applicable to my specific needs." Leader at Roche

        Learning & Development workshop - Roche

        "I found extremely helpful and actual, for the current environment and new ways of working, both topics, "How to boost your concentration" and "How to say yes/no".

        The way Géraldine manage the workshops, introducing "movement" is something that adds a lot of value, a different perspective, and provides a better learning by doing, more than from listening. I know a bit more about me after the workshops, which is a great take away." Rafael, Manager- Team leader at Roche

        Atelier sur les valeurs - Entrepreneurs

        " Je recommanderais cet atelier ! Mais aussi Géraldine pour sa pédagogie, expertise et bienveillance !!"

        "Réfléchir à ses valeurs est très important. L'intervenante était top, claire, et son support pertinent. Bon rythme entre théorie et petits exercices pratiques, bien rythmé.""
        "J'ai trouvé l'atelier utile et pertinent, je pense que c'est important de réfléchir sur les raisons profondes qui nous poussent à entreprendre. Une fois que c'est clair, ça nous permet en outre d'avancer dans des moments de difficultés car on peut bien focaliser les raisons pour lesquelles on a démarré. Super intervenante, Top ! Très motivée et bonne communication. Je recommanderai cet atelier à une autre startup."

        1:1 coaching

        "Thanks to her great analytical and listening skills, Geraldine always asked the right question or provided the relevant comments, which will challenge you and bring you forward in your journey. I really value my time with her. She is giving you a safe environment to unfold, grow and find the right balance." Marie, Roche manager

        Design & Facilitation for a Team workshop - Roche

        "Geraldine is a very thoughtful and skillful facilitator. Her work helped “move” the participants’ mindset to prepare for the future of the business. Despite scheduling issues she has seamlessly adjusted the agenda and delivered the desired outcome. It was a pleasure to work with Geraldine" Didem, Team leader at Roche

        1:1 coaching

         

        " With coaching I make sure that I am having the right and deep conversations needed to achieve my goals.

        Geraldine has an outstanding listening and feedback ability that helps to quickly identify my true motivations and blockers."

        Etienne, Syngenta

         

        Move & Learn workshop

        " I love attending Géraldine’s open floor sessions. I arrive tired and leave so much more alive! It feels so to be in a space without any requirements or judgements and just move anyway that my body, my heart or the music inspires me too. I love it! Géraldine is always there to offer a theme of inquiry or encourage us to explore movement in one particular part of our body. It’s reconnecting to the body, the house of your mind and soul." Terri

         

        1:1 coaching

        " Connecting my mind and my body and trusting the emotions I feel helped me to move on when my mind got stuck.

        The wide range of tools that Geraldine is using - from technical tools to breathing techniques to mediation - was great to address the current state of my development.
        A great learning for me was that Geraldine helped me to understand and accept that personal development is a journey with highs and lows - for everyone -. Even the phase of going through a valley is actually further development and a step forward in itself." Claudia, Manager at Roche
