No one is immune to the fear of judgment, of not being liked, of not measuring up, even for the radio & TV professional that I used to be. But nothing is insurmountable. Who dares, wins!
The most famous roman public speaker, Cicero, used to say: «In principiis dicendi tota mente atque artubus contremisco.» «At the beginning of a speech my legs, arms and mind shake»And I totally understand and agree on this sentence. The “Ars Orandi” was something that was taken very seriously in the ancient time and I decided to do the same for myself: I enrolled on a 2 days course with Arnaud: amazing what I could reach with his special seminar in Public Speaking. He is a great speaker and fantastic teacher: by chance in the following weeks I had to speak several times in public and I had the possibility to practice my new knowledge. I received a lot of compliments even by very severe “judges”. I really suggest to contact Arnaud to improve communication on a personal and on a company level.

Arnaud is a top-notch professional in media training and public speaking prep. I’ve been working with him for over 5 years and can’t recommend him enough. He’s got a knack for pinpointing and prepping for the hot-button issues in the news, all while delivering impactful training sessions complete with real-life simulations (stage, radio, TV, print, etc.). The real highlights? His availability, straightforward methodology enriched by his journalism background, and a broad media savvy across various fields—all served up in a super friendly professional setting.

Arnaud is our coach at Mirakl and has been for several years, working across our organization from the CEO to anyone with client facing roles. He supports us not only in the technical skills of public speaking, but also in crafting keynotes and presentations that have a stronger impact. Thanks to his expertise in storytelling and his prior professional experience in TV and media, we get precious tips and tricks from the field. I have personally taken Arnaud’s training several times, and each time it was adapted to my level and I saw a big improvement. I find it especially useful for preparing big keynote presentations because he provides input and ideas, as well as a proper cadence for rehearsing. Arnaud has a special talent to find the exact areas where each participant can improve, and he adapts his coaching to help each individual. Everyone can see a very big difference in the “before” and “after”, if you work with Arnaud. Every professional must take this training, because it will help you gain in confidence, present better, and have more impact on your audience. It’s an investment that will serve you for your career, and even in your personal life. Thank you Arnaud!

And don’t forget to grab the videos of your practice sessions on your way out—they’ll keep you laughing for a long time…
Marc Norlain, AriadNEXT
I took part in a training session led by Arnaud to improve my public speaking. In just two sessions, I gained valuable and practical tips, advice, and insights on structuring my message and perfecting my posture for public speaking. Arnaud’s approach stands out for its effectiveness and applicability. This training is among the few I revisit regularly to reinforce what I’ve learned and to explore new topics. Thanks, Arnaud!

What’s better than stories to capture attention? Arnaud knows how to tell them and has taken the time to teach us the tricks of the trade. His storytelling approach has extracted the very essence of our project. He also coached us to win over the audience at the EDF R&D awards. Thanks to a compelling speech, we managed to evoke emotion among our listeners. Indeed, our test laboratory was awarded the audience prize, and new clients are now interested in our work. His take on public speaking adds real value to your innovative projects. We highly recommend incorporating his expertise into your innovative endeavors and listening to his stories.
