Career history

After obtaining his diploma in engineering, Damien gained 30 years of industry experience, initially in an SME, then in major international groups, such as Valeo and Legrand, always in product development departments. He likes innovation, the satisfaction of creating and the pleasure of uniting people around a shared vision. Above all, he likes human adventures : meeting new people, the richness and power of teamwork, being open to differences and complementarity of professions.

2016, Damien suffered a burn-out which led him to take a step back. He joined a coaching training program to understand what happened, how the burn-out could have been prevented and to learn how to avoid it happening again. In 2017, he decided to put his experience at the service of individuals and teams.

Coach expertise

“V. Lenhardt’s book “Coaching for meaning” is the bible of coach and team training. This title inspired Damien’s personal motto : “Acting for meaning“ which guides him in all his individual and team coaching sessions.

Damien also did Enneagram training. This self-awareness tool has helped him discover and understand himself better, and to identify different ways of exploring the world, so much that he enjoys using it in his coaching work. He help his coaches gain self-awareness and free themselves from limiting behaviors, and also in shedding light on other’s behaviors and learning to accept them.
