Our Executive Coaching Approach

What a feat to combine neuroscience, mindfulness, and leadership as a learning canvas! I emerge from this training inspired, but above all, fully empowered to make better decisions in my strategic role. I recommend it to anyone who works with their mind and wants to do so in a more effective and rewarding way.

This training has helped me progress and has allowed me to realize the importance we must give to our thoughts and our mind on a daily basis. We are constantly distracted by people, events, tasks, technologies, and more. Our brain is running at full speed, and this training has convinced me that to improve my work, I must now prioritize my ability to direct my attention to the right place at the right time. I feel more at peace and equipped since I took it. A huge thank you; it will follow me to work, of course, and also in my personal life.

I wholeheartedly recommend Ginette whose expertise in leadership development has left an indelible mark on our organization. I have had the pleasure of witnessing the impact of her work on our people leaders across all echelons of our company. Ginette has crafted a leadership development program which blends self-directed learning resources complemented by live peer discussions, thoughtfully spread over several months. This structure has proven to be very effective, allowing our leaders to assimilate their learning into their daily life. What sets Ginette apart is her authentic leadership experience, which she generously draws upon to enrich the program. Ginette is an exceptional consultant who dedicates additional time to comprehensively understand the unique needs of her clients, ensuring that her program is meticulously tailored to meet and exceed their expectations. Managers found her program educational, highly relevant, and immediately applicable. I am confident that she will bring the same level of excellence and impact to any future client she collaborates with.

I really appreciated the Mindful Humans Bootcamp by Ginette Gagnon because it allowed me to step back and have a better overview. I discovered blind spots that I had been neglecting. Also, thanks to her explanations about the brain's neuroplasticity, we realize that we can improve by becoming more attentive and aware of our actions in the present moment.

I really enjoyed this training! What I find most interesting is that we addressed concepts from my daily life and challenges I face every day. Also, after each training session, I can start implementing them on the same day to become a more complete and efficient manager. The concept of mindfulness is incredibly powerful. It's a lifetime practice but so useful in my professional and personal life. Not to mention the concepts of the 5 whys, the power of influencing people according to their own interests rather than ours, how to prepare for a meeting, and how to focus on what's important but not urgent. I could have summarized the 5 trainings because they are all very useful for me. Thank you very much Ginette for this training. I have tools for the rest of my career.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Ginette Gagnon. She was a key guide in the design and implementation of strategic thinking and leadership development programs for senior executives and managers. Ginette is a true expert in the field. She made sure to leverage this expertise while aligning with our strategic priorities and remaining responsive to our organizational challenges and stakeholder interests. She has orchestrated the development of unique programs that truly meet the organization's needs. She innovates by offering a variety of learning methods and tools, allowing participants to choose those that best suit their schedule and learning preferences. Her in-depth knowledge of the subject, her vast experience in coaching and individual development, and her openness to coaching in an agile and evolutionary mode have all contributed to the success of Otéra's leadership development programs.
