[Music]

[Applause]

if you were with me the morning of the 11th

June 2007 you probably would have lived

the curate experience transform the course

of your life I was alone in my

apartment I was preparing my little

lunch when suddenly I

felt a very strong headache if

loud that I fell to the ground

maybe my head hit violently

the ground I do not remember one thing

is sure it could have been

the end for me

have you never had an experience

that dramatic that will take you to

think about what you could have

do better

well that’s what happened to

me g I was stressed at the time I

worked hard I did not eat these

games was not drinking enough I was not doing

not enough sport

my professional social relationships

and is of unspeakable mediocrity and

that was my perspective of employees

today I advise companies

on capital issues

human and I can now go

account being on the other side that

my manager was not the problem

as I could believe him thinking about

the time but it was rather the

how it was handled

today did not ask a leader

corporate his strategy his vision he

will probably answer you with

relevance

ask him rather how is it

his vision his strategy and executed and

you will realize that frustration

suffering concerns many

business

my experience led me to notice

a few words and these are just

a few in the practice of

some companies

stingy wages that stagnate

for years people who stay

in the same position for years then

that companies have the means

greed this quest for power and

curb or finally collaborators

are able to cause the worst to their

own colleagues or even their family

lego when he is not well mastered

legal that we doubt to destroy us

same can also destroy the

others around us

the worst in our day is that

empathy is perceived as a

weakness greed

this quest this quest for gain

financial gain of material that we

makes you lose all sense of humanity

mistrust in a lot of companies

there are spirits critical of spirit

end of May his minds instead of being

constitutes instead of being considered

as solutions are rather

considered as particular threats

in companies where there is the

leader’s culture it’s not contradicted on the

chief

have you never been a victim or

actors of one of his words actually if we

look well

these words are not deficiencies

leadership but falls within the

responsibility of everyone’s

words finally when we look good

emanates from our own or

the emon of our own be and

ultimately constitutes limits that

must go beyond to reach

best performance levels

probably never equaled before

about it there is a very study

interesting from the university of

harvard that was conducted on more than

75 years across categories

socioprofessional all diverse the

each other and that has shown that

neither money nor fame nor the

power to constitute happiness in

contrast the social relations the

quality human relations leads to

a longer life more fruitful

so to be able to cultivate his

quality human relations in the

part of a business there are heaps

tools

I noted some recommendations to

share with you the meaning redefine the

meaning in which one works in the

companies actually make sense of

each of the actions behind our

work whatever the job but he

made sense to know that we are working

to serve a much bigger cause

than his own person that his own

interests then there is the

communication of this meaning do not

reach do not wait for the beginning

of year when the end of the year but

communicate regularly with the

staff there is innovation around the

employee treatment today of

start-ups of large companies

we make the choice and I mean even

had the courage to put forward the

employees he is in 2d the clients because

that the welfare of the first

conditions the satisfaction of the second

we see it today that’s all

recent certainly the managers of the

well-being the managers of happiness then

it sparked the laugh

but in the end we must salute the courage

of those business leaders who have

decided to put the man in front

the human in front of the demystification of

leader create the link between the leaders

leadership and staff and we can

create link with very elements

simple with tools of a simplicity

in win simply a lunch

between the CEO and the rest of the staff

completely changes the perspective of

staff of cohesion activities

teams just simple thing reduce

the gap between leaders and staff

why not democratized the

presence of staff members

within the boards of directors

so I would like to share now

some elements of a harmonious whole

this all harmonious amount constituted

first of integrity cultivate the

relationship between speech and action

if we say we will increase

wages we will award bonuses

that we will gratify promote well

stick to it that will only

increase confidence in

teams between teams within

the company the way

consider each other for what he is

regardless of its status

hierarchical his social situation of

his origins from his community and I

just happened to consider him for this

that he is unity because the union

makes the force

share knowledge experience

within teams between teams

in the company humility

know how to listen to each other I remember

of a son I was very young

collaborator in the bank was him

director na son always had a

moment to listen to me for

advise to guide me

in January 2010 he left us with a

cancer today all I

remember these are these small actions

actions he had towards me that

cause that today it inspires me to

do the same thing if not better

no

the courage to say no to everything that goes

against an environment of

healthy work the work environment

nice where we respect each other

authenticity authenticity finally

authenticity is integrity

vis-à-vis oneself is to accept oneself

oneself as we are

and get accepted by others as

that we are

you know the human qualities that

are in each of us we must

to explore them we owe it to them

multiply to make sure that we are

even more humane in business

if it’s not to be more human at

least stay human I would like to quote I

would like to quote this great Sufi poet

jalaluddin omis who invites us to the

next question why are you staying

in prison when the door is big

opened

thank you

[Applause]
