  • "Our company is going through massive growth and our environment is quite chaotic. The link Pierre created with chaos and the beauty and growth that happens in the shadows was fantastic. The way that the talk felt like it was created for individuals is what made it special. Everyone has a takeaway that feels like "WOW! This has been created for me". The personal stories, history, and insight on people's behaviour creates these moments of connection before Pierre drops a wisdom bomb!"
