WHAT GOT INTO ME... TO BE A MANAGER?
One day, I said “I want to be a boss!” Since then, I have been a coach, psychologist, mediator, foster parent, idea box, emotional punching bag… and sometimes, incidentally, I manage. In this stand-up conference full of experience, a manager recounts the great adventure of daily management: meetings that could be emails, annual reviews where no one is sincere, paradoxical injunctions, “autonomous” employees who want us to decide for them… and that sweet thrill when, finally, the team moves in the same direction… even if it’s not the right one. An ode of encouragement to a poorly defined central role, between contested authority and responsibility without power. Being a leader nonetheless and showing the way through leadership and influence … the rest is just a job description. Objectives - De-dramatize the role of the manager through caricature and contradictions - Create a mirror effect: allow managers to recognize themselves in the situations mentioned - De-guiltify: no one is a perfect manager - Re-give meaning to the role: remind that managing is not “knowing everything” but helping a team grow in uncertainty. - Strengthen adherence to the role by re-boosting, through derision, the pride of being a manager
Win! Because losing is not as good....
We live in a wonderful time, where we celebrate failure, romanticize defeat, and applaud the attempt. But in real professional life, no one pays for a trial. In this stand-up conference, a thorough dismantling of modern myths that distance us from success by creating the illusion that they bring us closer. What do those who win actually do? They do not seek to avoid losing; they create the conditions for victory. Taking a loss is one thing, but assuming the consequences of success is another. A funny, insightful, and committed intervention for salespeople, managers, and leaders. Losing is an experience, winning is a skill.
