“As a leader, my main goal is to ensure the success of my company while also caring for the well-being of my employees. When I heard about Captain Givré, I was curious but also frankly skeptical. My role requires a balanced approach to stress management, and I was looking for a holistic approach that could not only enhance workplace performance but also promote work-life balance for my teams.
The day with Captain Givré far exceeded my expectations. The theoretical aspect provided a deep understanding of stress, not only in terms of individual management but also collective management within the company. This reinforced my belief that employee well-being is the fundamental pillar of long-term organizational success.
Hormetic breathing exercises were, for me, the centerpiece of the day. Learning to consciously use my breath to regulate stress had an immediate impact on my mental clarity and ability to make informed decisions. It’s not just a professional skill but a valuable life skill that I now share with my colleagues.
As for the cold baths, the idea intimidated me at first. However, as a leader, I had to set an example. It was a truly liberating experience. Diving into the unknown, feeling discomfort, and then emerging with a sense of physical and mental well-being created a perfect parallel to the challenges we face in our daily roles. It strengthened the connection between leadership and resilience.
What I particularly appreciated was how Captain Givré integrated stress management into the professional context. The practical advice was directly applicable to our work environment. It goes beyond a simple well-being session; it’s a strategy to build a corporate culture where employees have the means to achieve the company’s ambitions while still having energy available for their personal lives.
Since that day, I have noticed a significant change within my team. Communication is smoother, creativity is stimulated, and commitment to our mission is strengthened. Captain Givré not only provided practical tools for stress management but also helped create an environment conducive to the professional and personal development of each of my employees.
I highly recommend Captain Givré to all CEOs and leaders concerned about the balance between professional performance and the well-being of their teams. It’s much more than an experience; it’s an investment in the long-term sustainability of your company and in the happiness of your employees.”
