** Starting Up Today - Your business your way ** (learn from my experience and mistakes)
You are or want to work for yourself. Freedom. The potential rewards. You have an idea. A good idea.
But where do you start? What’s necessary to get the idea in a company form, so that you can get paid for your idea. And make profits.
Over the last three decades, I’ve set up a number of firms - and grown them into 7 figure revenue operations. From scratch. Through thick and thin. I’ve learned what matters, and what doesn’t.
I’d like to share this with you.

TRAINING TO EMBODY EFFECTIVE MANAGERIAL COMMUNICATION IN THE PROFESSIONAL FRAMEWORK➤ Being a good manager is also being a good communicator. After all, a strategy can only be put into practice if you show yourself capable of interacting with your employees, of being a source of inspiration for them and of listening to their concerns. Unfortunately, not all managers naturally excel in this role and their difficulties in asserting themselves as true leaders is often attributable to their difficulties in communicating.
➤ The objective would then be to explore together the areas of improvement in terms of communication know-how. And managing effectively requires specific and advanced know-how.
➤ In fact, managerial communication corresponds to the interactions between the management of the company and the organization and more specifically, between the manager and his team. This executive is in charge of transmitting information and directives from higher hierarchical levels, supporting internal communication, distilling messages related to his own management to obtain the commitment of his team, all while transmitting a message effectively.
➤ This exercise can therefore be tricky: this is why it is important to choose the right mediator in order to be well supported, not only to be understood by those around him, but also to carry out his mission.
➤ What to communicate? When ? Whose ? These questions will find an answer in the consistency of the actions undertaken. Good managerial communication will thus aim to exchange / dialogue effectively with its employees, maintain a close link between the different layers of the company, bring human relations back to the heart of the company, establish a climate of trust and good team cohesion, motivate by inspiring.
➤ In short, each session combines techniques & practice exercises adapted to your everyday situations (filmed with your agreement in order to be reviewed, commented on, decoded together live), so that you can put them into practice immediately, and this from the 1st session.
Statistically, the progression following these private sessions is quickly noticeable, from 2 or 3 sessions *. (* study 2020).
➤ THE TRAINER:
Trained in Grande Ecole post-preparatory classes & Ivy League university in the United States, our teacher has specialized and has been working for more than 15 years, in Europe and North America, in the field of communication , in reputable international public and private establishments, intervening in forums and conferences, and oriented on two axes: training and coaching, with pedagogy and careful methodology as key words.

Business and Economics classes (IB, IGCSE, Cambridge, Pearson exam boards)Imagine you’re sitting in a classroom where things like money, businesses, and markets are the main topics. The class is a mix of theory and real-world stuff. We’ll talk about how businesses work, what makes them successful, and how the economy around them influences everything. It’s not just dry theory either – we’ll probably look at current events, how global stuff like inflation or supply chains affect businesses, and how consumers make decisions.
We might dive into the basics like supply and demand, competition, and profit, but also get into more complex stuff like market structures (like monopolies vs. perfect competition) or the role of government in regulating businesses. Sometimes, we’ll analyze case studies of famous companies or failures to get a sense of what works and what doesn’t in the real world.
Expect to have some debates, throw around ideas about what makes a good business strategy, or discuss things like what causes recessions, how money is made and managed, or why certain industries boom while others crash.
The goal is to help you understand how the economy works.

Manage and administer (purchase) contracts, supplier managementContract management is ensuring that the agreements laid down in a contract are actually fulfilled. Both the performance and obligations of the supplier are relevant as well as the performance and obligations of the own organization.
Poor purchasing contracts or poorly maintained contracts can cause confusion, friction and 'hassle'. Contracts are also sometimes too comprehensive or incomplete.
By managing and administering your purchasing contracts in a structured way, you can ensure that the risks surrounding contracts are minimized and that the contracts are used properly. This not only saves time and money, but also generally ensures better relationships with your supplier.
I can teach you how to create that structure, organize good tenders, conclude good contracts and manage your contracts better.
