Mireille Jacques
Chef Owner and Founder, Oli Shish Taouk

I called on the executive coaching services offered by Top Coaching when I was caught up in something I couldn’t figure out, which clipped my wings. I immediately trusted Pierre-Stéphan, because I felt he was approachable, empathetic, understanding and respectful. I fully explained my challenges to him. He helped me understand what was going on deep inside me and empowered me to deal with different situations.

His coaching allowed me to embrace my role as a leader within my organization, and I immediately saw a difference within my team. My collaboration with him has been  a crucial component of my entrepreneurial journey.

Thank you Pierre-Stéphan!

Stéphane Lalancette
Senior Architect & Partner, OAQ, LLA Architecture

Two years ago, we joined forces to start a new firm offering professional architectural services. In order to successfully carry out this type of adventure, which involves several important challenges, a harmonious relationship between the associated partners is the key to success and to achieve this, a good understanding of each other is essential. It is in this context that we have mandated the professionals of Top Coaching to help us target the personality traits that are specific to each of us and to accompany us in this healthy and logical process.

I must say that the results have exceeded our expectations. This process was enriching and undoubtedly beneficial for our partnership in the long term. It has enabled us to equip ourselves for the future. I highly recommend Robert Molino and Pierre-Stéphan Lafrance. Two competent professionals with integrity and sensitivity to various business issues.

Top Coaching changed my vision forever. First, they helped me build my sales department.  They also taught me how to challenge myself and overcome my fears and self-imposed limitations.  And, most importantly, they showed me why and how to trust my instinct.  Top Coaching has opened new horizons for both my own career and Memtronik!  Thanks!

Robert Molino leads by example. His work ethics, passion, dedication and discipline are positively contagious with a team environment. These attributes are complimented by his wisdom, which he has attained from the many years of being a true sales professional.

Isabelle Mongeau
President, North America, Nikon Optical Inc.

Nikon Optical Canada is currently making a strategic shift: evolving from a product-centric approach towards a customer-centric one. Therefore, we required Top Coaching’s help to train our Sales Management Team first. The goal: to develop their coaching skills. The “Coaches Session” was a huge success. Not only did it equip them with actionable technical skills; it also provided a forum to develop commitment and motivation, thus ensuring that the entire Management Team now fully embraces the change. Pierre-Stéphan clearly applied the fundamentals of the approach and lead by example: stop, breathe, think, act. Thank you!

My Team was recently faced with an unexpected, yet crucial and very complex request for quotes («RFP»). Top Coaching helped us define a clear response strategy and build a strong and balanced business case. And we won the deal with flying colors!

Vice-President, Sales & Engineering, Exo-s

Hi Pierre-Stéphan,

I met with a key Customer of ours today.  And it went extremely well.

I’m dropping you a line to thank you for your coaching.

It was a textbook example:  customer hurt, decision making (choice between logic and feelings), keys of influence in a sales context (likability, credibility, etc.).

In short, a long yet exciting day!

This video (in French) is about our partnership with Espace-inc but it features key messages which were crafted and honed with the help of the Top Coaching team. We greatly appreciated the executive coaching Nancy, Pierre-Stéphan, and their entire team provided us with. The focus was on strategic sales and market development.
