He helped me to progress and to improve my practices with clarity and patience. Alexandre has strong values of sharing. Today, all his topics have become an essential part of our employee development programs. Thank you, Alexandre.

David M.,
Head of Software Engineering Community
I had the privilege of working with Alexandre and I’d like to share my extremely positive experience. His ability to convey his expertise in a clear and accessible way is truly remarkable.
What sets Alexandre apart is not only the breadth of his knowledge, but above all his exceptional pedagogical approach. He has a gift for making the complex simple, accompanying each piece of advice with pertinent explanations and concrete examples.
His dynamism and joie de vivre are contagious, creating a stimulating and enjoyable learning environment. Always available to share his knowledge, he knows how to adapt his approach to each individual’s needs.
I highly recommend Alexandre for his expertise, teaching skills and infectious enthusiasm. He’s a real asset to any team or project.
Sébastien L.,
Leader of Open Source Community
I had the pleasure of working with Alexandre on organizing collaborative event that significantly enhanced our community management efforts. Alexandre demonstrated sharp organizational skills and a keen eye for details, ensuring every aspect of the event was meticulously planned and executed. His ability to foster collaboration among diverse teams and profiles was essential in the event’s success. His dedication and enthusiasm were truly appreciated too by the collaborators.
I recommend Alexandre for any role that requires strong organizational and community management skills.
Capucine L.,
Leader of management change community
We worked with Alexandre for 2 years at GRDF, as part of the agile coaching team. Alexandre challenged us with his thoughts and questions, encouraging us to take completely different angles. I’m thinking in particular of his way of finding out how to make an impression and get a message across by taking the counterpoint with, for example: what would be the worst way to give feedback? Or the worst meeting etc.
Alexandre is highly intelligent, always thinking ahead: you start small, but what’s the next step and the one after that? He manages to convey his vision, even if it sometimes seems idealistic or utopian. He knows how to make it concrete through realistic steps. Finally, everything becomes possible!
He knows how to bring out the best in us. He personally coached me and helped me gain the confidence to propose to my management that I set up my own team on a subject that was close to my heart.
Working with Alexandre means being ready to be pushed around, to listen to ideas that may seem too ambitious, and finally to realize that you are capable of achieving them.
Camille D,
Leader of Learning communities,
Les nouvelles pédagogies
Alexandre accompanied me at the very beginning of my project to set up a community of teachers based on sharing practices and support.
The sessions we had together were always very fruitful, and helped to frame the slightly crazy ideas I had in my head with very clear and well thought-out tools.
Alexandre is a community expert and it was a real asset for my project to have him by my side.
I recommend his coaching!
