Laurent Pellet - Speaker on gestion du temps
Take control of your time for a sustainable balance between performance and serenity.
Companies and their leaders are facing increasing pressure: ambitious goals, heightened mental load, days fragmented by emergencies and constant demands... In this context, time has become a critical factor for performance and balance. Yet, we often feel like we are subjected to it rather than mastering it.
After 28 years of career at Accor and Edenred, including 22 years of expatriation across several continents (Europe, South America, Asia), Laurent Pellet has held positions as country and then geographical zone general manager, eventually becoming a member of the Executive Committee of the Edenred group (CAC 40) for 10 years. Having passed through Harvard Business School, he has led multicultural teams and driven strategies in high-intensity environments, where time organization and priority management were determining issues.
Faced with the challenges related to time usage in demanding contexts, he had to experiment and refine methods to regain control over his schedule and priorities. He now shares this expertise through a remarkable and interactive conference:
⏳ “Your Time, the Key to Your Balance”⚖️
This conference goes beyond simple organizational techniques. It offers a deep reflection on our relationship with time, enabling leaders and professionals to make choices more aligned with their goals and well-being.

What did Laurent Pellet do before becoming a speaker?
I spent 28 years in the international company, first at Accor, then at Edenred. After starting in finance, I moved into General Management positions: first for countries, then for large geographical areas (Southern Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia). For 10 years, I sat on the Executive Committee of Edenred, a company listed on the CAC 40. I spent 22 of those 28 years in expatriation, across several continents. I also completed an Executive Program at Harvard. It is this intense, multicultural, high-pressure trajectory that has shaped my vision of time and priorities.
What led Laurent Pellet to become a speaker?
My return to France in 2020, after 22 years of expatriation, was a turning point. This change of pace allowed me to take a step back from everything I had experienced. I realized that I had developed, out of necessity rather than through reading, a particular way of seeing and using time, a method that had allowed me to endure and perform in extremely demanding environments. And that others could benefit from it. In 2023, I decided to dedicate this new phase of my life to passing it on.
Why book Laurent Pellet rather than another speaker?
Because my legitimacy is not theoretical. I have led teams on 4 continents, with extreme time zones, cultures, and levels of pressure, and I had to find, out of necessity, ways to endure and perform over time. What I convey, I have lived for 28 years before talking about it.
What is Laurent Pellet's speaking angle?
Time is not managed; it is used. This nuance changes everything. I do not teach people to do more in less time; I help them ask the right question: am I putting my time where it really matters to me?
How does the audience experience a talk by Laurent Pellet?
He is engaged from the very first minutes by a mechanism that takes him by surprise. He laughs at times; the participatory moments create funny and human instances. He reflects. He recognizes himself. He leaves with insights he didn't have when he entered.
Why do organizers like working with Laurent Pellet?
Because I have the reflexes of a former large company leader: reactive, attentive, reliable. Organizers appreciate putting me in front of their teams because I have the legitimacy and seniority to be credible, and to lend weight to a message that aligns with what companies need: to increase team performance without exhausting them. Having led this intense lifestyle around the world and across time zones, I do not give advice on time from a book; I give it because I have lived it. And the audience feels that. With the AI Round Table, organizers leave with a strategic deliverable on the same day. With Chrono Coaching, their teams can continue to progress individually over time. This is not a conference. It is an investment with measurable returns.
What concrete results can the audience expect after a talk by Laurent Pellet?
An immediate awareness of their relationship with time. Tools applicable from the next day to regain control. And for some, a deeper questioning of the alignment between their life and their real priorities, the most lasting effect.
