Clients who recommend us
These are clients who have relied on us to Empower their teams and organisations, or to work with them one-to-one to activate their full potential and build the future they envision on the basis of the present.
It’s unusual for our engineering company to spend time on our team dynamics. To do this, the management team had to find the right sparring partners. GenerativeHumanae was recommended to us by a trusted acquaintance. The overall approach is clearly structured, but the process and rhythm are very flexible.
GenerativeHumanae takes generative leadership and neuroscience and distils fundamental modern, concrete principles that can be applied every day. These principles are put into practice in a series of workshops where the 3-year vision of the business is defined, ready to be set in motion. This exercise – never easy, but always exciting – builds team cohesion and alignment around a collective master project.
GenerativeHumanae understood how to work with us throughout the process, supporting us as needed. Beyond this, the experience was built on the incredible positive energy of the GenerativeHumanae team, their passion and desire to get the best out of each person and make it available to the team. Comments were insightful and encouraging, allowing each person to reflect on themselves in a safe environment. Help was always offered, enabling each person to get past personal blocks and team constraints – vital for senior managers aiming for excellence in a constantly changing world.
GenerativeHumanae has developed an extremely powerful approach to working with teams on their business development projects.
To have the desired impact, this approach has to be championed by top management, and it has to align all the company teams in a collaborative endeavour. It starts with the company’s purpose, the vision and the goal of the team, and aligns these elements fully in the form of a concrete action plan.
The approach relies heavily on knowledge of yourself and others, and awareness of your strengths and limitations. It is based on the evaluation of each person’s Wave profile and bringing together these profiles. It is important to be clear about the objective: this approach is not designed to resolve interpersonal conflicts within teams. Just the opposite: applied correctly, it can anticipate and avert such conflicts.
We have applied the GenerativeHumanae approach several times in our company, each time with excellent results and feedback. Here are some examples:
1. Creation of the mission, vision and roadmap for a corporate team in an organisation with a strong matrix structure.
2. Working with participants and their sponsor in a training programme for high-potential employees from different organisations.
3. Induction into Industry 4.0 and preparation of an initial roadmap for a combination of COOs and Human Resources Directors.
At a time when our Management Committee was being reconstituted, we worked with GenerativeHumanae to assess the profiles, potential and talents of our Management Team.
On an individual level, this experience was a rich source of learning, awareness, avenues for improvement, and re-synchronization with our objectives and desires. In fact, following the Wave, several CD members undertook personalized coaching with GenerativeHumanae members, helping them to realize their full potential.
Given the richness of this individual experience, we decided to share our respective Waves within the Management Committee. The GenerativeHumanae team supported us in this “Team Constellation” process.
The seminar, where each member unveiled his or her profile, and where we became aware of the complementary nature of the Team’s potential and talents, in the light of the company’s development objectives, was a great moment of benevolence, enthusiasm and release of the group’s energies. CD members are now putting the group’s potential to good use, in a positive atmosphere, multiplying our power in action.
This “unlocking” of power within ourselves and our Teams has been a form of journey that has welded the Group together.
With the strength gained from this experience, we’re going to pass it on to our Managers, to power up our entire organization. Over and above the tool itself, the GenerativeHumanae team made a decisive contribution to the success of this transformation. The Consultants, experienced professionals with strong entrepreneurial backgrounds, are true coaches and partners, capable of listening, understanding, contextualizing and grasping the risks and, above all, the opportunities of your business. In this way, they help you realize your potential, and bring out the complementary qualities of your teams.
With clarity, they make dysfunctional behaviors visible to individuals and teams: they explain them with the use of psychology and with the help of neuroscience, thus avoiding any feeling of guilt, and helping to steer “Customers” resolutely towards positive, rewarding action. The result is enlightening conversations and positive transformation, enabling Teams to realize their potential to achieve group goals.
I strongly recommend this experience.
Managers often try to change teams or their ways of working. It would be much simpler to just appoint people who match the values, energy and image we seek for our team, but this is rarely possible. At the beginning of the year I was offered this rare opportunity, but I was keen to avoid making mistakes, or at least making as few as possible. The solution was to bring in specialists in team empowerment to help with the process.
We selected GenerativeHumanae to help define and build our new team, and then asked them to guide us through the process of empowering the team. Their process and their visible experience brought us far-reaching impacts, felt far beyond the team itself. Each of us has benefitted personally as well as professionally. Each of us has a clearer idea of our strengths and weakness, and a better understanding of our personal challenges. Rigorous but positive, the process allowed each person to develop without feeling judged, confident that the response would be impeccably professional.
Defining our Master Project enables the company to stay aligned and to focus on a common goal. Each person identifies more closely with this goal because they helped formulate it. Each person understands their role and their contribution to the team, and everyone knows that doubts and disappointments can be overcome because we are a team.
We would like to thank GenerativeHumanae for their professionalism and their process, but also for their very human approach at every stage. We absolutely recommend their services to any leader facing doubts or fears within team.
Self-questioning, the starting point of the Empowerment process!
Certain that we were competent enough to find the solutions to our recurring problems ourselves, and that no-one could grasp the issues better than we could, the very fact of submitting to a Power Shift was a victory in itself, and perhaps the basis of success!
By harnessing everyone’s talents to the common goal, Power Shift enables us to :
– quickly and directly ;
– in a targeted way ;
– by optimizing the time available ;
– efficiently;
– intelligently conserve energy for the development of other projects ;
build a framework for the evolution of the whole team.
Coming from a profession whose aim is to constantly find solutions to our customers’ sometimes complex problems, combining know-how, communication and sensitivity, it wasn’t self-evident to me and my associates that we too needed to find the answers to our questions outside our own circle!
By “challenging” us and pushing us to our limits, the GenerativeHumanae team helped us to get to know each other better and to understand that each of us could, through our specific and personal skills, contribute to the success of our partnership and our business!
The work carried out by GenerativeHumanae started with the Hero’s Journey, which initiated our Management into the process of becoming more confident, more impactful and better leaders. It also broke down territorial conflicts and brought teams closer.
Today our Management leads by example, working transversally and communicating freely. It is the hallmark of the agility of the whole organisation. The members of the Management Team now show concern for each other and anticipate their colleagues’ needs. With this new dynamic, each person is able to demonstrate their leadership, consider daily activities objectively, and strengthen their role as a catalyst for success and the achievement of desired outcomes.
Working with GenerativeHumanae was a decisive factor in our excellent response to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020.
In a family business like ours, it’s vital to get it right when we decide to grow.
The GenerativeHumanae team brought us an original and efficient way to improve the skills and contributions of our experts and bring new talents into the management team.
Tailored to our needs and our existing strong team spirit, this organised and human approach allows us to launch new products successfully. The better-structured team has become more balanced, stronger, more agile and more mature as a result, across more activities.
Many thanks!
We contacted GenerativeHumanae to work with us on a leadership development programme for our senior managers. They listened carefully to our needs and were able to provide effective support thanks to their systemic and forward-thinking approach.
We also asked them to individually coach our senior managers, and the results had a very positive impact. We recommend them strongly to anyone aiming to bring clarity and order to their organisation!
The GenerativeHumanae team empower lives as well as businesses.
Thanks to them we were able to identify the vulnerabilities within our organisation and work to create new interfaces to make us more efficient and more successful.
The GenerativeHumanae practice allowed me to successfully manage a significant life and career change. Their ability to listen and ask the right questions creates a critically new point of view. Being able to do this with empathy is another real strength. Thanks to their support I was able to face up to my fears and turn them into new resources to open up new opportunities.
I strongly recommend GenerativeHumanae to anyone seeking personal development.
