“We did not yet have a Grade B leadership development program in place. However, it’s our biggest Grade population so investing in their development is a key priority for us. Together with COURIUS we created Be the Future, an immersive and experiential talent acceleration program for our High Potentials/High Performers, designed to increase self-awareness of participants enabling them to unfold and empower their professional impact. This investment enables employees to build their network and design their career to fulfil their aspirations at Capgemini.

The program results clearly show those that complete it are more likely to stay and progress their careers with Capgemini, we’ve seen a definite increase in employee retention and over 80% of program participants have been successfully promoted with 18 months. Which is an amazing achievement.”

“The MaastrichtMBA is an executive MBA program aimed at working professionals worldwide. Many students choose this two-year, part-time executive master’s program because of its emphasis on leadership development. The combination of business education with coaching initiates significant growth. COURIUS is one of the contributors to the executive MBA, participating in both the course curriculum and the Leadership Development Trajectory. The business coaches support the students over two years in three ways: through one-on-one coaching, buddy coaching, and group coaching. This continuous reflection challenges the executive MBA students to step out of their comfort zones and experiment with new behaviors, which helps them advance their personal effectiveness and develop leadership skills to better lead their teams and organizations through strategic change.

“I had the opportunity to meet my executive coach during my leadership development trajectory as well as several times during a leadership week. He is a very gentle, trustworthy, knowledgeable, and energetic person. He becomes even more energized when others move towards and reach their goals. He also has a special and unique ability to trigger undiscovered potential (more than others) and he made me think deeply, and guide me with small but impactful steps. I would highly recommend him for any leadership trajectory, team /individual coaching, or motivational speaking assignments”.

“COURIUS’ presentations are straight to the point and with a deep awareness from an unseen perspective. They are confronting, interactive and fun. I especially like the practicality of the insights which makes them easy to apply. I took away a lot of new learnings which I have used to open up new paths in my professional career and to create deeper connections in my personal life. His presence is calm and powerful, inviting me to look inwards and reflect on who I am and what’s important in life.”

“At first, I wondered what I would gain from business coaching in terms of leadership experience, since I had never experienced it before. My coach understood my doubts, shared his own story, which created a sense of similarity and trust, and asked insightful questions without giving answers or advice. His approach made me think about my leadership style and showed me that I could do things differently. Occasionally, he gave me exercises, such as mapping out my polarities.

Initially, I didn’t see their importance, but after a year, I realized that it was exactly what I needed. In essence, my coach helped me understand my strengths and weaknesses and guided me to work on them at the right pace. After my initial skepticism, I was grateful for the coaching after two years. It had a profound impact on me, both professionally and in my personal life.

testimonial Be the Future program

Attending the Be the Future programme has been a key milestone in my Capgemini development. The in person section of the Programme was incredibly productive. The facilitators masterfully created an environment which managed to be both warm and encouraging whilst also pushing participants out of their comfort zones. The preparatory work and the follow on sessions online following the in person sessions offered the chance for self reflection and reinforced the lessons learnt at Les Fontaines.

The outcome of attending the course has been both an increased self awareness and a better understanding of those around me, helping me to identify colleague’s working styles and how best to communicate and lead others. I have not only taken the learnings from Be the Future into my current client engagement, but it has also helped me clarify the path for my future development.

Overall, attending this course has been a massive growth opportunity and one I would encourage anyone to take if they are given the chance”.

“I had the pleasure to follow the International Leadership week, organized by the Institute of Leadership and Management. One of the most fascinating sessions was delivered by Marco Buschman, followed by a discussion he had with the inspirational Leader John Mark Williams. What caught my attention was the paradox between Functional and Relational elements in the workplace: although both of them are necessary and equal, yet the way we relate to ourselves and each other is more crucial to the successful functioning of organizations. Thank you for an inspiring presentation!

“I have worked with a business coach of COURIUS during my stint Capgemini Group L&D for one of the flagship Leadership Development interventions. He was amongst the pool of 2 Lead Faculties who were instrumental in making the program a runaway success in its first year of launch. In my experience of working with him I have found him an extremely versatile faculty who very effectively played the roles of a Faculty, Consultant and a wonderful Coach to help build future VPs of the group. He is a wonderful individual with very high level of emotional quotient and maturity to handle even the most difficult senior level audience with ease. I wish him all the success in future and hope to stay connected.”
