Leadership in Numbers: The Secret of Lasting Companies!

At the end of 2024, the newspaper Les Echos headlined: "The Conflict Between Partners: The Great Taboo of French Tech. 80% of issues in a young company arise from a disagreement between partners." This topic obviously extends to all forms of businesses: SMEs and mid-sized companies, but also the medical field, insurance firms, law firms, and other liberal professions. Beyond business leaders, Winning Alchemy addresses all executives, entrepreneurs, or employees. Unleash the power of your partnership: it is to provide the keys to a sustainable and effective agreement. It allows for aligned, flourishing governance, ready to make strong decisions to create the future of the company. In this dynamic conference, we address conflict management, Leadership in Numbers, trust, the cult of collective victory, and also that of failure without taboo. The richness of this conference lies in the ability of the three speakers to draw on anecdotes and lived experiences. We are in the real, we extract deep principles and good practices that can change your life! But above all, we have a good time because there is a beautiful interaction on stage, we leave with a smile and the desire to improve. Arnaud Thiollier, Arnaud Courdesses, and Laurent Windenberger founded Babymoov in 1997, right after their studies. Their ambition and winning partnership quickly propelled them to the top of their market. Their capacity for innovation transcends borders. They establish 7 subsidiaries worldwide, including 1 in New York and 1 in Hong Kong. In 2017, they launched the GreenMoov movement: innovating while caring for future generations. An honest and strong eco-responsible approach that changes the business model. The automatic repair of Babymoov products is in place, everything is reconditioned and offered to parents at adapted prices. The company is a pioneer in this approach. Today, Babymoov continues to grow, particularly through external growth with the acquisition in 2023 of the Belgian brand Doomoo. In 2022, after 25 years of partnership, Arnaud, Laurent, and Arnaud decided to sell Babymoov. They transferred governance to 3 employees of the company. Babymoov 2.0 was born. The 3 founders left their operational roles but retained a presence on the board of directors. In 2023, they created Rise Club: investing in young French companies and supporting leaders in their development. To date, they hold 4 stakes: . Capillum, for its genius in creating a new recycling stream for hair . Addeus, for the magic of its AI tool that automates your company's communication . Greenpact, for its impact on the future of our society . Wellness Prevention for its expertise and modern approach to well-being in the workplace. In 2024, they wrote The Art of Partnering: The Secrets of a Sustainable and Effective Partnership. Their publisher Vuibert distributes their book in all online and offline bookstores. The success is immediate: many entrepreneurs and leaders discover the first book that openly discusses sensitive topics around multi-governance. The 3 founders of Babymoov are quickly approached by several leaders to help them improve their multi-functioning. Indeed, unity is strength! This is our deep conviction. In 2025, we decided to share our knowledge and experience with our conference: "Leadership in Numbers: The Secret of Lasting Companies."
