Research and development
in Intelli7®

Conseil en organisation et management

My expertise lies in structuring fast-growing SMEs. For the managers of these companies, it's all about proving oneself in order to survive. Everything moves very fast, and we can be confronted with poorly explained situations, often linked to human dysfunctions, which act as a brake on development.

In this type of context, the Intelli7 model, which is highly visual and easy for anyone to grasp without being an expert, enabled me to easily capture the attention of managers and get them to usefully reflect on the question of matching human resources to the company's needs: how do we know if we have the right man at the right place?

I've used Intelli7 in a variety of ways, but when it comes to structuring companies of this type, I'd like to mention two that have generally made a real difference.

The first consisted, through a better understanding of the behaviors sought, in limiting decisions calling on the garbage can model.

This often unsuccessful strategy leads to recruiting for high-level positions, without too much formality or discernment, a person from the immediate environment. When the scope of recruitment is broadened and the desired behaviors have been clearly identified, the company has a better chance of recruiting an employee who will effectively support its development strategy.

The second type of action was to help reposition certain employees who were unsuitable or suffering in their jobs.

With the help of coaching based on a profile, we can help people to better understand their preferred operating modes and thus find their place; particularly on the manager/expert axis.

This helps repair a number of mistakes often made right from the start of the company.

Facilitator of collaboration and transformation - Collective intelligence and professional coaching

I appreciate the flexibility and finesse of intelli7; the tool doesn't lock us into boxes, but empowers us to make better use of our resources, in a very concrete and more conscious way. Intelli7 has enriched my coaching since 2018, in groups and individually.

When I work with groups, we explore their team mapping and culture together. We relate them to their issues and their usual functioning: what are their supports and brakes, their shortcomings, possible alternative strategies.

Gradually, the team assimilates a common vocabulary that helps them to step back from behaviors, in a calm and constructive way.

We then identify the synergies to be developed, those precious resources that are present in a few and today under-utilized; one of my customers thus testified that their codir had become aware of their creative potential.

In a 2nd phase, individual or paired restitutions of distant profiles allow us to go further.
