Coaching/consulting

"It has been a joy to work with Alain. He is one of the few people I’ve met who can “speak Wall Street" and integrate "Doing the Right Thing" in the same discussion. As a business coach, he constantly challenges me, first to understand and then, to look beyond the numbers, recognizing that working with people and doing the “right thing” is a much larger equation. I would highly recommend Alain to any business manager who wishes to work towards becoming conscious, defining a clear vision and gaining an understanding of their purpose." C. D., President, family business company, Ohio

In looking back on my recent experience with Alain, I realize now that I have been fortunate to receive Alain’s grace and guidance. I had been lacking experience in my position, I had been overwhelmed by the amount of work at hand, and I was unclear of how to relate to my new boss. Alain introduced me to a level of awareness for which I had not been operating with and helped me to understand where and how I should be applying myself. In this process, Alain was able to provide insight into the changing and challenging business landscape. I now have more confidence as I grow in my role and believe both my company and I have benefited greatly. For this I am grateful to Alain. I would recommend Alain to any company in need of CFO coaching.“ N. M., CFO, publishing company, Colorado
