Our team - Nexmove

A shared passion

The team

The Nexmove team comprises executive coaches and a cross-disciplinary team that nurtures our ecosystem.

Our coaches all come from corporate backgrounds and a results-driven culture, underpinned by a proactive, creative approach to their missions and unstinting availability. They have all exercised managerial functions or headed up profit centres.

They are adept at combining their diversity with a shared vision of how to work together: i.e., making each person the owner of their own change process and harnessing the group dynamic to all of the opportunities and exchanges going on within NEXMOVE.

About Marie-Liesse

“Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life”. (Confucius)

My decision to work in Nexmove is driven by the strength and professionalism of a cohesive team, a dynamic cutting-edge approach, Nexmove’s reputation and rigour and its international focus, together with the energy generated day-in, day-out around our exchanges, workshops and events. Nexmove can only generate change by keeping pace with a changing world.

As Managing Director, I have to head up the business and make sure that we have an ecosystem that has something for everybody.

As Senior Executive coach, my role is to tap into all of your responsibility and potential because motivation and professional fulfilment can only be based on successful transitioning.

My professional journey (in brief)

Post-graduate studies in Business Law & Tax at Université Paris II - 1989
Certified Coach – Link-Up Coaching - 2011
Trained Mediator –IEAM -2012
MBTI

My law studies taught me the importance of equity and rigour while my commercial experience at Jones Lang helped develop my customer relations and negotiating skills together with a results-based mindset. The years I spent in London broadened my mind and perfected my English. Aside from intense joy, my four children have taught me the importance of sharing and perseverance while my return to the world of work at Hammerson gave me a real feel for management and the quest for excellence.

All of these diverse experiences have led me to my ultimate professional vocation: helping to partner career development and transition.

Hands-on, Creative, Authentic, Perseverance

Dimitri Aït-Kaci

Executive Coach

About Dimitri

Certified Executive Coach HEC Paris
Trained in the systemic approach to organizations (Jacques Antoine Malarewicz)

My career has been shaped by 17 years in the advertising and media sector: in particular within the Communication Department of the Société Générale Group, then by taking over the General Management of leading communication agencies: in the Publicis Group, then in a subsidiary of the American group Interpublic.

These management experiences have allowed me to develop a rich experience of human dynamics and teams, especially in very demanding environments.

In 2016, wanting to refocus my career on what made the most sense to me, namely human coaching and talent development, I created Heroes Conseil, a Leadership & Storytelling consulting firm. I am indeed convinced that storytelling, i.e. the ability to put elements into a narrative, is a fundamental skill for modern leadership.

The parallel between the journey that a hero can take in a story, and the journey of a talent in his professional quest is very appropriate in coaching and in transition issues. It is in this way and after some very nice encounters, that I decided to join Nexmove in the summer of 2019.

I intervene in Executive Coaching, Team Coaching and Professional Transition Consulting. I also propose the Heroes Conseil offer within the firm, in storytelling consulting and training.

Passionate about endurance sports, I practice assiduously the long distance triathlon. Through this passion, I fully live this quote that I love and that fits with my approach to coaching "A journey of a thousand miles always begins with a first step" - Lao Tzu

About Fabrice

“Failure is simply the opportunity to begin again, this time more intelligently.” Henry Ford.

“To get ahead, you need to have inner resources from a very early stage and be able to benefit from an outstretched hand and experienced tutors.” Boris Cyrulnik in Le Monde de l'éducation N° 292 - May 2001

I have 20 years’ experience of partnering executives and entrepreneurs in leading headhunting and consulting firms both inside and outside France.

I’ve also worked as a consultant, successfully completing a number of lean manufacturing and performance enhancement missions as well as company turnarounds.

I’ve set up six businesses myself – and they’re all still running! One of them has employed 27 people.

But I’ve also had failures and setbacks. These are the experiences that have forged my character and helped me to pinpoint the factors that make for a successful venture or help people to bounce back.

I’m currently partnering executives and senior managers who are in a transitional phase or looking to change direction, and helping them get back on track.

My own experience has taught me when to listen in a proactive and caring manner and when to speak plainly but in a pragmatic, non-judgemental way. Finally, I use my knowledge of the market and the demanding standards of headhunters to maximise the career transition of everyone I work with.

About Charles

“It is not because things are difficult that we do not dare, it is because we do not dare that they are difficult”. Seneca

ESSEC Business School (1985)
Certified in individual coaching – ALTER & COACH (2005/2006),
Certified as a Process Communication Coach (2010)
Syntec Coaching Accreditation (2012)

And after all that, I breezily tell people that I’m a coach and outplacement consultant.

It wasn’t the obvious route to take because I worked in marketing for big international groups that speak to women by telling them that they’re beautiful! Not a bad deal for a man! For 15 years, I experienced the trials and tribulations of management at L'OREAL and ETAM, then at NEWELL-RUBBERMAID, working as Head of Marketing for Germany and International, Sales Director France and heading up subsidiaries in Chile, Switzerland and Belgium. What I liked most about management was the way it can highlight and showcase the various individual talents, skill-sets and resources within each team.

So what if I actually got a job doing this?

I used a professional hiatus to train as a coach and since 2006 I have been providing outplacement, coaching and career evaluation services in French, English, German or Spanish.

When I joined Nexmove in 2009, I found a place that is ideal for helping professionals to own their own transition process.

My job in a nutshell? Enabling a manager or executive to identify and tap into their own (cognitive, relational and motivational) potential more effectively in order to devise a project, deploy the resources needed to effect the change and measure the extent to which the objective has been achieved. And if the objective is achieved or exceeded...then that goes down as a win!

Isabelle Debin

Executive Coach

idebin@nexmove.fr

About Isabelle

"It is through contact with others that man learns what he knows". Euripides

Whether in a job or in professional transition: how to optimize your career and give it meaning, how to be clear about the organization's challenges and your own role (skills, limits, acceptance, challenges)?
I accompany members of the CODIR and Managers in their strategic, managerial and relational challenges as well as Executives and Managers in professional mobility.
I intervene more specifically in the framework of coaching missions (individual or team), outplacement, strategic career assessment.

My human, pragmatic and "out of the box" approach reveals the talents and potential of Leaders and Managers.
My 30 years of varied experience have given me a very good knowledge of shareholder relations, corporate governance, strategic and managerial issues as :
- head of a marketing, sales or communication BU (member of the comex) in highly competitive environments: new technologies, industry and distribution,
- CEO of a subsidiary of an international retail group
- consultant for start-ups.
Periods of professional transition have opened up the field of possibilities for me: CRA training (business transfer and takeover), Coach and Team training, and professional transformation, which have allowed me to move towards my deepest desire to turn even more towards the Human being: the essential "growth subject" in these complex organizations.

Today, as a consultant and coach, I wish to give meaning to those I accompany so that they "dare to be who they are" for the greater satisfaction of the companies in which they work.
My main assets are: listening, leadership, results, assertiveness, energy, relational ease.

About Alix

ESSCA 1982

Syntec Coaching Accreditation (2010)

I cut my teeth working for three international groups (Beiersdorf Tesa, International Paper & Sylvania) in marketing and sales roles and later as Head of a Business Unit.
These 20 years spent in a corporate environment gave me experience of coordinating teams of people from very different backgrounds and made me realise that what I actually love most is working with professionals within organisations to help move their projects forward.
So it was a natural progression for me when I joined a US firm of career transition specialists in 2002 to work full time on what I like doing best. In 2007, I joined Nexmove where I coach senior executives and managers and help them tap into – and get the most out of – all of their potential at various different stages on their professional journey.
We work on their strategy and vision after establishing a genuine rapport of trust and two-way communication.

Welcoming each Person in all his/her complexity, fragility and powerful(less)ness; re-examining established belief systems that may cloud the horizon, hamper or restrict action and then transforming these – step by step – into vectors for driving a personally enriching project forward.
I want to support you along this journey in which you are the chief protagonist, tapping into the internal resources that are latent there within you, waiting to be deployed, to enable you to realise your full potential.

After 20 years of managing international teams in big multinationals (Danone, SJ Johnson, Scholl, Newell Brands) in marketing and sales development roles, I’m now focused firmly on the human side of things: helping people with their career development and transition, and showcasing and consolidating their talents.

Charles Pépin / Self-confidence

For 30 years, my professional life has been built around meetings with men and women who are passionate about their work.

As an Executive Coach, I help you, executives, managers or companies, to optimize and develop your potential by creating with you the conditions for lasting success.

Passionate about cognitive neuroscience and a practitioner of the neuro-cognitive and behavioral approach, I am committed to guiding you and your teams towards highlighting your motivations and innate talents, working with you on your stress zones and assertiveness, and thus enabling you to move forward with confidence and agility in a rapidly changing professional world.

In a previous life, more than 25 years spent with leading actors of the communication industry, confirmed my taste for human relations through team management, and the direction of business units at Publicis, Mac Cann Erickson, Auditoire/TBWA, Innocean Worldwide/Hyundaï Group ...

Collaborating with multicultural companies in the automotive, consumer, media and new technology industries has contributed to nourish my natural curiosity, to develop my leadership and my adaptability in new contexts every day. I had the chance to participate in the development of Areva, Esso, Elis, JDD, Michelin, Kia, Kronenbourg, Le Point, Nissan, Opel, Renault.

Advising my clients on their strategies and communication plans has given me a better understanding of the complexity of organizations and how they function.

Listening to others, sharing ideas, managing teams by helping them grow, encouraging with kindness and rigor has naturally become the fuel of my life. My evolution towards coaching and outplacement was an obvious choice.

Systemic coaching training - Métasystème 2016

Changing perspectives to be able to see the world, human organisations and each person in a different manner. Showcasing forgotten or latent resources and potential. Finding (or redefining) desire and concrete target results. This is the philosophy that underpins my approach to coaching and support.
15 years as a communication specialist working in the Havas Group, particularly for BETC, 8 years running an SME, and a childhood spent in a family where business and collective success were daily topics of conversation, have made me someone who is curious about everything and ambitious for others, and left me with an incurable natural optimism.

At Nexmove, I have encountered a mindset that is focused on openness, exchange, sharing and partnering human potential and respect for all. And, much to my delight, it is a place where topics – both human & business – are endlessly discussed and re-examined.

I love the rush of a stream in full flow and seeing how people – and teams – skilfully navigate the currents to get where they want to go. And if I can help to get them there, all the better!

« Change is the only constant in life ». Heraclitus

After graduating from ESSEC, I worked 18+ years in large multinational companies in the luxury, cosmetics and services sector as Director of HR and Talent Management functions. I partnered with senior executives at Codir and Comex level to drive people strategy in line with business imperatives, managed complex cultural and organisational changes (particularly within IT and Digital populations), and took great pleasure in detecting talents, building teams and developing executive leadership. I managed teams and projects across many cultures and geographies with a combination of strategic thinking and operational agility, an out-of-the-box approach, creativity and empathy.

Born and brought up in India, I have lived and worked in four countries (India, Mali, UK and France) and travelled extensively over several others. Major changes, both at personal and professional levels, have characterised my life so far, which has instilled in me the belief that changes always serve as catalysts for inner and outer transformations. Periods of transitions are therefore defining moments, potent with possibilities, a time for reflection, creation and focussed action. I enjoy supporting business executives through such moments of transformations, to help them strengthen their leadership vision, resilience and consciousness, so that they can have a greater impact on the world around them. Specific areas of focus: coaching with respect to executive careers (mobility, expatriation/impatriation, outplacement), onboarding in new roles, cultures and organisations (following mergers&acquisitions, digitalisation), or team leadership (cohesion and collaboration in multicultural environments, remote team management).

My leisure time is spent with family and friends, on writing, reading (business and economy, contemporary fiction, personal development, spirituality, sociology, psychology…), yoga, meditation, travelling and mentoring.

I love the rush of a stream in full flow and seeing how people – and teams – skilfully navigate the currents to get where they want to go. And if I can help to get them there, all the better!

Nicolas Riedler

Executive Coach

nriedler@nexmove.fr

About Nicolas

ESCP Europe (1984)

Obviously, I’ve always wanted to give free rein to my curiosity, my desire to meet other people and my attraction for differences and all things international.

Professionally, while I’m driven by a taste for action and achieving results, I also love sharing experiences as a means of reflection and deciding how to move forward in a complex, exciting world.

Two experiences in particular stand out on my professional journey. Ten years heading up international development for the Aubade lingerie group and four years spent working in chocolate at Bongrain Group where I ran a subsidiary.

My globetrotting “business” years taught me the importance of having a vision and a clear strategy but I also realised that it is in the deployment phase that talent and great ambition come to the fore.

When I joined Nexmove in 2011 to begin a new professional adventure by helping other executives to take charge of their own transition process, this seemed like a natural progression for me.

This is what I hope to bring to the personal repositioning missions that I undertake and to tackle them with a blend of pragmatism, commitment, respect, sincerity and courage to help you devise and succeed at your personal project.

“A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds.” Francis BACON

Post-graduate studies in Business management and administration (CAAE) – IAE -1993
Masters in Private Law – 1986
Professional Coach Certification – Académie du Coaching- 2010

The first part of my career was essentially focused on the strategic and operational management of Human Resources in big corporations. For over 15 years, I helped advise senior management teams on all types of HR-related issues.

I started in the Telecoms sector before moving into Banking... I was very excited by the pace of change and I acquired solid experience of how organisations actually work and the specific challenges facing bosses and senior executives.

In 2008, I decided to focus on the things that give the most meaning and pleasure to my professional activities, namely meeting and engaging with people – this also chimed with my unstinting interest in the world of business and change enablement.

It became obvious what I wanted to do next, namely support senior executives and managers in their professional journey and repositioning strategy.

I love forging a unique partnership with each person I work with...that enables him/her to get a little perspective before moving forward to activate the levers of success with calm confidence.

About Natacha

“Empathy, professionalism and kindness”

After five years of Digital Communication studies, I really feel that I’ve found my niche.

I’m fascinated by the latest innovations and what lies ahead.

When I left high school I entered a work-study program, so I was straight into the world of work - I hit the ground running!

I quickly began working in consultancy at the juncture of professional development and wellness at work with a stint at Stimulus, part of the Human & Work Project group.

When I joined Nexmove, I was delighted to find values I could identify with: empathy, conviviality and a sense of sharing.

Within the team, I’m in charge of communication and developing the Nexmove brand. I also provide support to people who are transitioning, either as Nexmove candidates or with specific areas such as digital expertise.

After 15 years of professional experience as a sales manager in the IT sector, where I experienced many transformations, I felt like putting myself in "power for", rather than in "power over". That's when I started my professional reconversion towards the field of the Human being. I created my own company in 2009, specialized in individual and collective transformation coaching.

Today, I join Nexmove to help executives and managers in their own journey. Oriented by the question of meaning, I favor tailor-made approaches, supported by meticulous observation, integrating time as a factor of success. And because "rest is a moment of movement", I invite deep reflection, which can transform the momentum into the right movement.

Member of the EMCC, I am also a partner teacher of the JBS Coaching school, supervisor and volunteer coach within the Force Femmes network.
On a more personal level, I love the finesse and precision of Iyengar yoga which I have been practicing daily for over 20 years.

My job: to help women, men and organizations to give meaning to their activities and to reach their objectives.

I have thirty years of experience in France and abroad in the sales department of a sports equipment manufacturer, then fifteen years as an entrepreneur in the accompaniment of leaders and organizations, leadership and management training, and finally by the direction of human resources at Energy Pool, former subsidiary of Schneider Electric.

As a humanist, I am a link between the reality of life and the aspirations of people.

The assiduous practice of martial arts applied to my professional and personal life has taught me to dare to put into motion the courage to consider life's obstacles as opportunities for growth in order to seek what makes sense in my life. This is a principle that I apply in my coaching.

Olivier Yéni

Oral communication expert

About Olivier

Through Acte Sept, I’ve been helping senior executives with their spoken communication for the past 15 years. I’m a trained singer and actor and I’ve written a few plays so I created Acte Sept with the idea of marrying corporate communications to an artistic approach.

Drawing upon these two skills, we work on both the content of your message (as author), but also on how you deliver it (as an actor).

We have created a leadership communication workshop for Nexmove to work on communication style and key upcoming speeches. I take turns with AnLo Piquet and Olivier Lambert – two other members of the Acte Sept team – to coordinate the workshop and it’s always a great adventure because quality communication is really all about having quality relationships!

About Gregory

A few years working in finance have given me a pretty good understanding of economics and I factor cost effectiveness into all of my processes when I’m trying to solve problems and come up with solutions for businesses.

My numerous commitments to associations have fostered a flexible approach tailored to decentralised environments that require simple, effective and cost-efficient processes. I have considerable experience of deploying "open source” solutions to deal with the challenges faced by associations.

In 2010, I set up Ficelles, a company specialised in web design and consultancy (tech watch, social networks, websites, etc.) and web 2.0 training (HR 2.0, PR 2.0, marketing 2.0, communication 2.0, tech watch and curation, etc.).

I run a “Web uses” workshop for Nexmove that gives participants an enhanced understanding of the web and arms them with a number of tools they can deploy to optimise web use for professional and personal ends.
