Fred Colantonio
The Belgian criminologist specializing in human behavior in organizations and beyond
Trained as a criminologist, Fred Colantonio left the Belgian public administration in 2006, after 5 years of practice, to found a consulting agency and support companies in facing their challenges: digital transformation, innovation and differentiation, leadership and management. Very quickly, his dynamic interventions bring concrete results and autonomy, thanks to a pragmatic approach and effective decision-making shortcuts. Since 2008, his team has supported around 200 clients and provided over 24,000 hours of consulting and seminars. Since 2009, as a professional speaker, Fred has delivered over 950 conferences in 14 countries and on 3 continents, reaching tens of thousands of people. With humor, he invites them to maximize their DNA - Natural Differentiating Asset: everything that can offer them the maximum impact with the minimum effort. Since 2010, Fred has published 10 books, including 4 bestsellers, and 3 have been released in both Europe and Quebec. In 2018, he created the publishing house “The Attitude of Heroes” to publish inspiring books by inspired authors and accelerate the dissemination of what he calls behavioral success models. In 2020, he founded the ReLOAD Belgium association to help bankrupt entrepreneurs bounce back for a better restart, thanks to a solidarity network and volunteer support. In 2022, it was absorbed by ReVival Belgium to give it a national scope in Belgium. When he is not traveling, Fred enjoys reading, playing guitar, and spending time with his loved ones.

Bouncing Back from Failure: How to Turn Setbacks into Winning Moves?
Who has never experienced that unpleasant feeling of having messed up a project, an exam, or a file? Who has never doubted their own abilities to succeed? Who has never experienced what can be called 'failure'? At first glance, we might wish to avoid it, but human psychology and the trajectories of great professional, athletic, or artistic successes help us understand that failure: 1. is part of the daily life of every human being 2. is the price of learning. Failure is therefore neither a shame to flee from nor a glory to seek: it is a necessary passage. It is often said that every medal has its reverse. Perhaps behind every setback, there is a medal to be sought, by changing our perception of error, thanks to the credo: 'Since we reap what we sow, let us plant ourselves.' OBJECTIVES • Discover the 2 major psychological configurations for managing error outlined by a criminologist by training • Understand the springs to bounce back and the levers to shift from one perception to another • Overcome challenges alone and as a team by developing resilience and determination. KEY IDEAS • 7 psychological springs of the negative spiral of failure • 7 key elements of a constructive attitude towards failure • 3+1 rebound levers
