I am a “positive disruptor", a "diversity bridge" and more practically a leadership and human development consultant in the Asia-Pacific region with extensive experience in international team-building. Through my workshops and trainings I help people from different backgrounds develop new perspectives and learn to work with differences and diversity. After studying Law (Bachelor of Pacific Law & Masters in International Business Law / Maritime Law) I worked for 12 years as a lawyer. I then reoriented my career in another direction: Leadership & Human Development. In 2014 after participating in the Pacific Islands Leadership Program at the East-West Center, I launched his own company, the first leadership consulting company in French Polynesia & the South Pacific Islands: “Pacific Ventury”. I help private and public organizations in French Polynesia, the Pacific region and globally to build stronger cohesion for their teams, address change and foster diversity. I have also helped local businesses launch their development (in terms of vision, structure and management) and build growth strategies in innovative and adaptive ways. I have also delivered keynote speeches for local and regional events on topics such as the future development of Oceania, innovative technologies and new management methods. He is a mentor for the PRISM Start-up Incubator in Tahiti. This experience has allowed me to have a broader view of the challenges of organizations as well as the obstacles faced by institutions in implementing development policies. Most of my work stems from the basic idea that our attitudes and decisions impact everyone, thus the more we are aware of ourselves and our own biases and the more we grow, the more we are capable of building stronger and more adaptive organizations.

I discovered TED one day, I was bored in my office and just fell on my chair as I was so amazed b such open ideas, new concepts... Visiting the website I discovered it was possible to host a TEDx event. I filled the form just to see and then one day I received an Email telling me that I had my licence. From this day on, I realized how amazing and big was the challenge but I decided to go over it and do it whatever the means, time and people working with me. Since then, it has been for me a tremendous tool for self-confidence, positive work... I had opportunities to meet wonderful people and finally, for me, the TEDx experience is mostly while organizing than on the D-Day.
