    Dans ce nouvel épisode, nous vous emmenons à la rencontre de Rémi Guyot, Chief Product Officier à BlaBlaCar. Rémi est sans aucun doute le mentor que beaucoup rêveraient d'avoir et nombreux sont les collègues qui le louent pour ses qualités de leader. Curieux et authentique, on vous promet une heure intense et pleine de bonnes choses avec Rémi. Au sommaire : * Intro * - 2:39, Le pouvoir de l'écriture, et pourquoi Rémi tient un blog et une newsletter. - 4:48, Tu crois fermement en 3 valeurs qui t'animent : la simplicité, la radicalité et le jeu ou l'importance du ludique (« playfulness »). Est-ce que tu pourrais développer un peu ces 3 valeurs et te présenter au travers d'elles ? - 7:59, Dans quelle mesure arrives-tu à mettre en place un peu ou beaucoup de ces 3 valeurs dans ton quotidien au travail ? - 9:58, J'aimerais qu'on parle hypothèse d'équipe. Imagine, tu entres dans une pièce et tu vois une équipe très performante à l'œuvre. Qu'est-ce que tu remarques ? Ou si tu devais créer une équipe comme tu crées un produit, sur quels points d'observation te focaliserais-tu ? - 14:04,  Si on pense à la première ébauche d'une équipe, à peine formée, à quoi est-ce qu'il faut faire attention pour déterminer son niveau de maturité et comment la faire évoluer vers plus de maturité ? - 16:17, Comment accueillir et faire confiance à son intuition ? La phase de recrutement des membres d'une équipe - 19:13, Tu penses qu'en recrutement, il est moins important d'embaucher les meilleurs que de savoir tirer le meilleur parti de tous. Comment fais-tu pour identifier les forces et la personalité des candidat(e)s ? Développer les membres de son équipe - 25:36, Sur ton blog, tu fais une liste de conseils que tu donnes aux autres et que tu devrais probablement appliquer davantage à toi. L'un de ces conseils est d'attendre beaucoup de son manager. Quelles attentes devraient être mieux satisfaites par les managers, selon toi ? - 26:50, En tant que manager, est-ce que tu sais ce dont on pourrait attendre plus de toi ? As-tu des retours de la part de tes collègues ? - 28:27, Comment mobilises-tu des techniques de recherche utilisateur pour les appliquer à tes collègues et à de meilleurs relations au sein de l'équipe ? - 30:50, Comment ne pas être aveugle face à ses propres limites, déconstruire ses biais et ses angles morts ? - 35:28, Tu conseilles sur ton blog de devenir un aimant à opportunité, pour se développer personnellement et professionnellement. Comment fais-tu ? - 38:09, À l'inverse, tu parles également de lutter contre ce que tu appelles l'inertie mentale. Qu'est-ce que ça veut, comment faire ? La performance de l'équipe - 40:19, Comment fais-tu pour maintenir tes équipes fédérées autour d'un but commun ? - 43:39, Tu écris sur ton blog que quand on demande à son manager plus de clarté, il y a des chances qu'il/elle esquive la question. Comment fait-on pour choisir efficacement ses batailles, et pour avoir de vraies réponses concrètes de son manager/de sa manager ? - 45:54, Du côté du manager, tu soulignes la complexité de donner une bonne consigne à ses équipes.  À quoi ressemble une bonne consigne, selon toi ? - 48:13, Comment faire comprendre ce qui doit être fait sans contrôler, comment laisser de la place, de l'autonomie à ses équipes ? - 51:19, Quel message voudrais-tu adresser, et à qui ? * 52:45, Conclusion * Pour vous abonner à la newsletter de Rémi, c'est par ici. Ne manquez pas également de regarder sa passionnante intervention sur comment combattre la complexité au travail, en français et en anglais.

    Le manager, un metteur en scène ? - Interview avec Jean-Christophe Hembert

    Vous l'aurez peut-être reconnu à son nom ou à sa voix si vous êtes fan de la série Kaamelott, cette semaine nous vous invitons à échanger avec Jean-Christophe Hembert, alias Karadoc. Jean-Christophe est un "touche à tout artistique", et c'est de mise en scène qu'il a discuté avec Vincent, métier qu'il pratique avec passion depuis des années. Pourquoi faire un pas de côté et parler mise en scène ? Parce que de nombreux articles et chercheurs ont fait ce parallèle entre le manager et le metteur en scène. Le manager dirigerait sa troupe, au service de la performance. Il créerait du sens et on l'encouragerait de plus en plus à se mettre en retrait pour mettre les autres en lumière, sur le devant de la scène. Nous espérons que ce témoignage passionné vous inspirera dans votre pratique. Au sommaire : - 2:14, Qu'est-ce qu'un metteur en scène, pour toi ? Comment tu définis le rôle et ses fonctions ?  - 9:47, Qu'est-ce qui, encore aujourd'hui, peut te poser problème dans la fonction ? J'aimerais te faire réagir à quelques mots, qu'on retrouve au théâtre et en entreprise. Je t'invite à me dire comment tu les envisages, ce qu'ils t'évoquent, au théâtre : - 17:30, La performance. - 19:05, Est-ce qu'il y a des éléments clés pour une performance réussie ? - 22:33, Diriger, ou direction. - 28:42, Transmettre et interpréter. - 35:26, Rôle et acteur/actrice. - 37:33, Quel regard portes-tu sur les émotions, tant dans ton travail d'acteur que de metteur en scène ? - 43:48, La confiance. - 46:53, Quel regard portes-tu sur les situations de conflit ? -  50:19, À qui souhaiterais-tu envoyer un message ?

From her experience in the media industry and in communication, she has also developed a strong ability to observe people to understand them and better assess their needs. *** Building yourself through crises 1:52, Can you walk us through your main missions and responsibilities, so that our listeners get a good understanding of what you are busy with? 3:37, Before we talk about leadership and we go further into team development, I want to talk about crisis and personal development. When we first talked before this interview, you told me how you have built your career over a few moments of crisis, when you felt you had to shift, to pivot, to adapt. Can you develop your relationship to personal development? 7:07, What lessons did you learn from your main moments of professional crises? 10:26, You also hosted a podcast in Turkey (Project Post 30), which was born out of the fact that you felt people were getting to work too early in their lives, without getting enough experience and self-knowledge, which eventually led to crises at around 30 years old. Do you plans for the podcast in the near future? Thoughts on Leadership, development & empowering women 12:30, You told me that you don't like the word/concept of “leadership”. Why? What do you feel closer to? 14:40, You are very good at observing and understanding people. What are you particularly sensitive to when it comes to assessing or observing other people? 17:09, You care a lot about women's empowerment. Would you like to share some thoughts on the topic? What have you learned from your experience? 20:58, Would you have books to recommend on the topic of women's empowerment? About the importance of Emotional Intelligence 22:46, Emotional Intelligence is key to you. Why? How to develop and sustain better teams? 24:51, How do you help team members develop their emotional intelligence? 29:24, What are key foundations for you in developing and maintaining better teams? How do you develop these foundations? The final say 31:13, I give you the final say: who would you like to send a message to (and what would you tell them?)?

    In this episode, you will meet Mike Gasca. Mike has been praised for his management capabilities by many colleagues over the years. He is passionate about developing people and has a tremendous, hands-on experience to share. With him, we will discuss how to engage people in a project, how to build your own leadership identity and practice. Mike will walk us through 2 of his main transformative and insightful experiences. Last but not least, we will talk about Mike's personal transition from female to male and how he is building the man and the leader that he is today. *** 3:26 First, can you tell us a little bit about what led you to managing a team? Who you are, how you landed your first managing position and what this first challenge was. 6:11, Do you regret having to learn everything by yourself, what do you think about learning leadership on-the-job? 7:15 In your first experience as Customer Service Team Leader, you managed a multilingual team of 12 to 40 people. How did you feel about this new role? 8:46, How did it go? What was particularly challenging, and how did you overcome these challenges? 9:43, What lessons did you take away from this experience? 11:33, What part(s) of your role did you like the most? 12:32, Right after that, you became Content Executive Team Leader. At that point, you have more experience, the team is a lot smaller, so one might think this second experience would have been easy compared to the previous one. But it was not, and it brought new challenges, and new lessons on how to engage people. Can you tell us more about this new context? 14:14, To what extent was it a different leadership challenge? 14:46, How did you adapt? 15:48, How did you get people to work on your project and be committed to your vision? 17:02, What do you do when you can't be completely transparent with the team and there are information you must hold? 17:58, Looking back at these 2 experiences, what is your view on authority and influence? 20:17, How would you sum up main pillars for engagement? 23:26, When we first discussed to prepare this interview, you told me that your journey was a “self-made man” experience, and I thought it was very true. Can you tell us more about what you mean by “self-made man”? 26:00, How do you think your personal journey influenced the way you lead other people and teams? 28:29, Leadership is still very much associated with men, and we try to define masculine and feminine leadership. Through your transformative experience from female to male, what is your view on these debates around leadership and gender? How difficult was it to craft your own leadership in this context? I give you the final say. To whom whould you like to send a message and what would be that message?

    Une fois n'est pas coutume, cet épisode est en français, à la demande de notre invité. Max et Vince sont très heureux de vous présenter Arthur Aubœuf et le projet qu'il a co-fondé avec 5 autres entrepreneurs : Time For The Planet. C'est un projet citoyen et collectif d'envergure qui vise ni plus ni moins  recueillir un milliard d'euros pour fonder et financer 100 entreprises open-source capables de réduire les émissions de gaz à effet de serre. Non content de vous faire découvrir en détails cette belle aventure à laquelle nous pouvons tous prendre part, cet épisode est aussi l'occasion de parler de management du changement. L'exemple de Time permettra de mettre en pratique le modèle de John Kotter, professeur à la Harvard Business School, et d'aborder précisément les 8 axes qui favorisent le changement, les 4 pôles de résistance au changement, et comment les dépasser. Les 8 axes qui permettent le changement, selon Kotter, sont : 1.  Créer ou valoriser un sentiment d'urgence.  2.  Former une « coalition » puissante.   3.  Créer une vision de l'état futur souhaité.   4.  Communiquer la vision.   5.  Inciter à l'action.   6.  Générer des victoires à court terme.   7.  Consolider les succès pour aller plus loin.   8.  Ancrer les nouvelles approches dans la culture.   Les 4 freins que Kotter identifie face au changement sont : 1. L'intérêt personnel. 2. L'inertie. 3. Le fait d'analyser différemment la situation. 4. La mauvaise information ou le malentendu.

What advice would be good to give to a first time manager about giving feedback to his direct report? These are some of the questions that Max & Vincent will cover in this episode.
