Dichotomy between vulnerability & performance - Where top athletes show us the way in business.

Speaker : Pierre Étienne BIDON

"Our failures do not define us, and our vulnerability is not a weakness." These are the words of French judoka Madeleine Malonga - taken from an interview in Le Point July 2023.

Even if the school of human relations claimed, very early on, that a "logic of feelings logic of feelings "(Roethlisberger, 1939) animated managers and employees, it was the logic of costs and efficiency that long served as the foundation of the industrial economy. But today, knowing how to accept vulnerability is a real factor in performance.

Topics covered include:

• Transformations linked to increased employee vulnerability
• The paradox between vulnerability and performance
• How to create psychological security (accepting the notion of vulnerability in the workplace)
