“There is a possible!”: this is the meaning of the Coach-Nego logo ∃◊

Every complex situation, crisis or conflict, contains an opportunity. While this may seem counter-intuitive and optimistic, it’s nevertheless a logical, cognitive consequence: as long as it’s possible to act, then it’s possible to act in a relevant way.

What’s that opportunity you haven’t yet seized, and perhaps haven’t yet even imagined?

Coach-Nego’s promise and mission is to help you widen the field of possibilities so that you can act and interact in a way that is satisfying for you.

To move from being an actor, where you play a given role, to being an author, where you write your own part.

Complex negotiation and professional mediation help to analyze the situation, anticipate scenarios of unfavorable evolution and map the stakeholders and their intentions in order to establish a strategy and an action plan that opens up the field of possibility once again, particularly in complex crisis management or change management situations.
Professional coaching, whether individual or collective, develops confidence, efficiency and the use of each person’s own resources to engage in a positive dynamic.
Professional supervision enables you to step back and reflect on your own practice, posture and position in the systemic complexity of the situation, with support, case-solving, development and empowerment. It helps transform experience into expertise.

The combination of coaching, mediation and negotiation enables us to optimize human capital, factors and potential to resolve conflict:

before a conflict, crisis or change, to anticipate and prepare for it (labor negotiations, PSE, M&A transformation and reorganization, crisis management, change of direction, request for a raise, interpersonal relations, etc.) ;
during conflict, crisis or change, to stand back, decide, be effective and act appropriately;
after the conflict, crisis or change, to analyze it, learn from it, bounce back and develop resilience.
