DECISION COACHING FOR FOUNDERS AND MANAGERS ANNECY-GENEVA
From stuck to decided, in six sessions
I ask the questions only someone who has run a business would ask. You find the answers. I know some of your world and made mistakes too. 25 years as a director in Paris and Hong Kong, three start‑ups, MBA Insead, coaching since 2010.
Free, in person or online session. You leave with your question reframed and one clear step
Why founders and managers choose me over a “leadership coach”?
I HAVE BEEN THERE
Marketing Director of 30 people from a dozen of nationalities, years in sales, co founded 3 start up, 9 years in Hong Kong. MBA Insead. When you ask for opinion, you get one.
MEASURED SESSION BY SESSION
Every session ends with a decision, a dated action and your score out of 10. Average across my last cycles: 9.4. We adjust or we stop.

How does a coaching cycle work ?
-
Your values, your story, your non‑negotiables. One to Two session
-
Clear direction and purpose : One master goal, split into sub‑goals we can measure.
-
Push options on the table, a choice, an action dated before you leave
-
You rate every session; mid‑cycle reviews about you are already doing differently or start realizing to change; we stop when the goal is met, not when the package ends.
“The practical take-away from our conversations – touching on both my personal and professional life – was a game-changer for me”
“Very structured… helping you funnel down from the people who inspire you to your inner why”
“His combination of listening skills, strategic vision and corporate experience differentiate him from coaches ”
“Nicolas has a rare ability to bring clarity to complex situations that initially feel overwhelming. Through his mentoring, we set five clear goals, all of which were achieved within nine months, a result that speaks for itself”
Three programmes. One price: €190 per 90‑minute session
One decision has been stuck for more than a quarter: leave or stay, raise or bootstrap, hire or restructure, launch or kill.
Six sessions of 90 minutes over three months, in person in Annecy or Geneva, or online, in French or English.
Session 1: your values and non‑negotiables.
Sessions 2–5: the options on the table, one decision and one dated action per session.
Session 6: the plan and the first 30 days.
You receive a written summary after each session and rate every session out of 10.
If it is not working, we stop at session 3 and you pay only for what you used.
A change of role, company, country or status: your first company, your first 90 days as a manager, leaving a corporate job, moving your business across the border.
Ten sessions of 90 minutes over six to eight months, in person in Annecy or Geneva, or online, in French or English.
Session 1: your values, your story and your non‑negotiables.
Session 2: one master goal, split into four or five sub‑goals you can measure.
Sessions 3–9: one sub‑goal per session, one decision and one dated action each time, with a review at session 5.
Session 10: what you learned, what you keep, and the next 90 days.
You receive a written summary after each session and rate every session out of 10. When a door needs opening, I introduce you to my network. If it is not working, we stop at session 3 and you pay only for what you used.
The plan is right, but your body says no: stage fright before a board or a pitch, sleep that stopped before the fundraising did, a temper that costs you your team, a voice that goes flat when it matters most.
Six sessions of 90 minutes over three months, in person in Annecy or Geneva, or online, in French or English.
Session 1: the situations where it happens, your stress score today, and the result you want.
Sessions 2–5: coaching combined with Ericksonian hypnosis, NLP and breathing anchors, trained since 2004. You leave each session with one technique you can use alone and one real situation to test it in.
Session 6: your own protocol for the next board, pitch or difficult conversation.
Practical, secular, measurable: you rate your stress before and after every session. If it is not working, we stop at session 3 and you pay only for what you used.
