Christopher Howard NLP Coach:

I am now graduated from the Platform and Presentation Skills from Christopher Howard.

As a coach, I have developed my personal concept of Goal Visioning technique that is based on Trance induction and related NLP exercises. This exercise  is targeted primarily to young adults and artists and for helping them to discover their objectives when they can’t see them. This technique gives astonishing results and move people from a stuck state to immediate action and motivation.

I am also coaching people who need to perform on stage: speakers, singers, musicians, performers, actors using the NLP techniques as a Christopher Howard Master Practitioner NLP coach.

Public Speaking

During my professional career in IT, I took several opportunities to speak in public in front of large audiences (several hundred).
My most recent representative performances are:

1. Help Desk Show 2006 in London (250 persons)
2. itSMF 2006 Birmingham ( 300 persons)
3. Service Desk Show 2007 London (150 persons)
4. Le RADIO 2007 (180 persons) – bi lingual

I organized several conferences and notably the Digital Radio Conferences at the tradeshow Le RADIO in PARIS in 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007. These conferences gather international speakers and audience with instant translation. In 2005, I organized a full day of conferences with over 30 top level speakers. This was broadcasted on radio and in video over the Internet. An abstract of the full event can be seen at:

I learned a lot of improvisation techniques during this period that I use in my speeches.

Musician and singer

From 1978 to 2005, I have been part of bands and orchestras playing bass guitar and singing. I was also DJ and Karaoke animator.
From 2000 to 2005, I was concentrating on my singing techniques and develop my expertise in Voice Management, under the supervision of  Jean La Fontaine, former opera singer.
In 2004 and 2005, I was part of 2 different bands, one where I was singer and leader and the other one where I was singer and guitarist.
