Me, the other, the relationship - the winning triptych

Cédric Henon, Founder, Emotional Intelligence Coach and Collective Intelligence Facilitator at Imp'act

You will be presented with situations from your own life or from the near future, potentially stressful and/or pleasant, and you will be able to see how you feel... and in this way illustrate the co-responsibility of each situation we experience.
