Passing on one's experience, a complex equation!
For the past 7 years I have been presenting on French and international stages to share my own life experiences. These strong moments of records and doubts allowed me to learn and "grow". One needs to be careful not to become a spectator of one's own images... especially when the Wow effect and the standing ovation on the spot is often the Holy Grail for many talented speakers. After this well-orchestrated ephemeral fireworks display that flatters one's ego, there is often not much left.
Personally, after emotional elevators and laughter, sometimes tears, I like a room that remains silent. Unable to ask a question in the first few minutes, as if suspended and needing a quiet time to assimilate and return to the present time. So much so that the Master of Ceremonies loses his or her words. I understand now what this means. I feel extremely touched by it and I have the feeling to have done the job!
Sharing is impacting, to make people live and feel a unique experience ! Sharing your guts feeling with authenticity... anchoring strong messages that have meaning and make us grow.
These are the lessons that I draw from each of these dedicated conferences.
