This was an excellent course, during which alternating theoretical aspects and practical exercises enabled us to analyse situations more effectively. The use of personal examples and situations experienced by the participants gave a clear understanding of the issues at stake and the tools available to us to manage a team more effectively. The facilitator was able to adapt to our pace of learning, listen to our difficulties and take the time to analyse to help us find solutions to our problems.

I appreciate the way the subjects are approached, the empathy and the precision of the exchanges. From my point of view, the training is extremely dense and it's true that at the end of the 3rd day I had accumulated a bit of 'concentration' fatigue.

3 / 5
Good sharing of experience, exchange and listening to everyone. Role-playing (not easy) but necessary as part of the training. On the other hand, the fact that we all went through all the scenarios was a bit long and made us lose track. The support is not followed (and I need some structure) and above all, I would have liked to have had more theoretical input and to have delved deeper into more subjects (DESC, management style).
CLÉMENTINE M.

Very good, very well set up, welcome and facilities and half board. Good group, good size, dynamic, good atmosphere. Good balance between theory and practice. The exercises were very concrete and well done. The theory was very participative, pleasant and interesting. It's a pity I didn't print out the course in advance so that I could follow it during the course. Thank you

It's a pity we don't have the full support package for note-taking in particular, so that we can use it as a basis for case studies.

The training is very dense, and leaves too little room for practice with real-life situations. In my opinion, we spend too much time reading the slides and therefore spend too much time on theory and not enough on practice.

GUILLAUME F.

It's been great, as I'm already in a job, and it's helped me theorise what I might be feeling on a day-to-day basis. I now have more tools and a better understanding of my role. Sharing experiences with the participants was very interesting, as some of them have had experiences similar to mine, so that's reassuring too.
LÉA P.
13/10/25
5 / 5
A good mix of theory and practice. The trainer was very competent and committed, and knew his subject well (not least because of his own professional experience). I would perhaps have appreciated some time to be able to put what we saw into perspective in our business context. This would have made it easier to apply what we'd learnt during the course to our own company.
