Richard and Mathilde met Yan in 2014 during their Process Communication trainer training.

At the time, Yan was already trained in NLP – Neuro‑Linguistic Programming, which remained his core model, having helped him overcome his own stage fright.

Since then, he has combined his artistic skills with his expertise in personal development to offer “tailor‑made” support to help his clients overcome their fears and express themselves with confidence.

Our paths drifted apart without losing sight of one another, and toward the end of 2025, Richard had the idea to invite him to lead a two‑day training session with our team, to revisit the facilitator’s posture through the lens of NLP.

We later discovered that the NLP and MMAPPER models are closely connected and even share a common language and symbolism: that of the map — a map we can reshape by taking an active role in our own lives…

Here is what Yan particularly appreciated during those two days spent with us:
“Everyone’s engagement, their curiosity, their relational finesse, their enthusiasm for experimenting, adjusting, integrating. In just two days, through simple exercises and role‑plays, they were able to realize that they had already been practicing a great deal of NLP without knowing it. The difference now?
They do it consciously, with intention, and with greater confidence in the structure of their facilitation.”

The whole team thanks him for so skillfully adapting this training to our needs and our reality, and for creating a benevolent and pleasant learning environment.

It was without hesitation and with great enthusiasm that we responded positively to the call of our friend and long-standing partner Virginie Rigaudeau, Sustainable Transformation Project Leader at Schneider Electric, to contribute to the ‘AcT’ en Seine-Eure’ project.

What is ACT?
It is initiative led by international organisations designed to provide companies with methods and tools to develop low-carbon transition strategies aligned with the Paris Agreement.

ImpaQt’s role ?
Facilitating of course —alongside Virginie Rigaudeau, MMAPPER-certified since 2023, and Rodolphe Durand, project leader. We’ll contribute by creating an environment conducive to taking a step back and building connections between the various stakeholders – which will help bring about new business visions and strategies.
Launch scheduled for the first quarter of 2026!

When Richard invited Jérôme Lefeuvre to host a workshop on emotional intelligence last June for the ImpaQt team, it wasn’t just another training session to be ticked on the calendar. It was about trust, strong ties, and a shared desire: to continue learning, growing, and making our practices evolve.

Richard and Jérôme first crossed paths in 2015. At the time, Jérôme, Master Trainer in Process Communication – was leading the certification program in which Richard took part.

Two years later, Jérôme wrote in the preface of the MMAPPER book: « If life is worth living, it’s for the encounters and marvels we provoke along the way ».

We warmly thank him for the two extraordinary days we spent by his side and for all the seeds that were planted with benevolence and subtlety.

In this video, Magali Geffroy, client and long-standing partner of ImpaQt, and certified MMAPPER facilitator since 2019, shares with us the impact that our Com&Co program has had on her career path.

Géraldine decides to start training in Non-Violent Communication at the beginning of 2023. She was lucky enough to follow the basic modules with Pascale Molhlo. Their exchanges were rich, and a link was created…

Pascale has been a medical doctor since 1984, a hospital doctor for 15 years and a certified NVC trainer since 1996. Pascale herself was trained by Marshall Rosenberg, not in a training room but in the field, accompanying him to many countries, including conflict zones. She sees NVC as a “natural extension of her vocation as a caregiver, enabling people to regain their power to act and interact in accordance with their own values and with respect for others”.

She is a facilitator at heart, having learned the trade in the field alongside a man whose teaching principle was: “Don’t do anything if it’s not fun and play!

After Géraldine, it was Richard’s turn to discover NVC with Pascale…

Today, the journey continues, as it’s the whole ImpaQt team and 2 MMAPPER-certified facilitators, Jean-Marc Dollinger and Magali Geffroy, that Pascale took on board at the beginning of March for another trip to continue our individual and collective journeys and enrich our NVC key practices.
