Guillaume is keen to support the emergence of a more inclusive and collaborative transformed society, hence his commitment to greater awareness and empathy in the areas of education and language.

As a coach, Guillaume's mission is to create liveliness in himself and in all those he reaches personally and through the organizations he is invited to support. He firmly believes that there is a close relationship between individual vitality and level of integrity. From this perspective, he developed a particularly strong sensitivity to deep inner truth and clarity of intention. 
Working with him is not always comfortable, but invariably generates a movement of alignment and energy. His approach is unpretentious, caring and direct. He has a way of creating a climate of trust and compassion that allows him to remain open and curious in his boldness.

Guillaume’s best NVC school lies in his role as a father, which allows him to develop the humility necessary to truly integrate compassion and authenticity.

He offers all his services in English and in French.
