What we do

We help management create a setting that encourages peak performance levels

Three simple ideas

  • - Committed employees are those that feel they are at the core of the management process
  • - Operational organisations are those where working well is in everyone’s interest
  • - Efficient managers are those that share the rules of the game that apply to everyone

CEE Management helps business leaders to implement a high performing management policy that involves management on every level in order to maximise progress for employees and the company as a whole.

WHY WORK WITH CEE MANAGEMENT ?

We excel in the following areas :

  • - Accompanying successful business projects 
  • - Making multicultural teams work well together
  • - Encouraging teamwork, doing away with the “silo mentality”
  • - Catalysing teams for maximum client service
  • - Balancing management/union relations

A FEW SIMPLE,
COMMON-SENSE PRINCIPLES

Straight talking

  • - The very basis of trusting and smooth relationships between managerial levels
  • - It requires listening skills, humility and respect for others
  • - It reinforces understanding and mutual assistance
  • - The result: solidarity, a group dynamic, the will to move forward together

A united team dedicated to the client: the common goal

  • - Client satisfaction is the company's endgame
  • - It orients the human resources, financial, technical and environmental aspects of the company
  • - The result: the commitment of each team member and all levels of the organisation to long-term client satisfaction

Associate responsibilities with power: the nail and the hammer

  • - A manager is expected to take responsibility for the consequences of his or her acts (to hold the nail). He or she is owed the freedom to act (to wield the hammer)
  • - Long-term effectiveness comes when the associated nails and hammers are delegated
  • - The result: organisations that know how to delegate
OUR APPROACH

A concrete and pragmatic approach

First of all, we observe behaviour

  • - We systematically base our training on reality as experienced by managers and employees
  • - This approach allows us to detect real dysfunction and to reflect on strategic solutions

We involve all management levels, starting with the CEO

  • - Each stage happens with the close involvement of management
  • - Management is always involved in our approach: this consolidates its credit/position

We bring management and employees together around clear principles

  • - We cultivate a state of mind, with rules and reflexes that are shared by all
  • - We define common rules, complementary objectives and implement tangible tools

Different modes of intervention

Advising management

  • - We collect facts and analyse situations
  • - We boost strategic reflection
  • - We accompany the implementation of a management policy

Team coaching

  • - We create conditions of trust
  • - We bring talent together to serve a shared project and target
  • - We highlight and encourage solid synergies

Management training

  • - We enable clients to (re)discover the basics of management
  • - We feel that managing people is an art to be cultivated rather than a technique to be learned

Individual accompaniment

  • - We encourage confidence and responsibility
  • - We help people to grow, to get to know themselves better, to find their inner talent and their relational potential

Testimonials

  • RENAULT

    Paul Carvalho, Factory Director (Cléon)

    “In the end when you trust more, listen more, are more benevolent, you get a higher level of responsibility, and as such, more progress for yourself, the team and the company”.

  • BRUNEAU

    Jean de Corbière, HR Director

    “With the help of the CEE at Bruneau, we developed a culture of responsibility at every level with the associated power… Without this common-sense approach, with simple things based on obvious notions of leading by example, responsibility, company governance that enables everyone to work well, we cannot function”.

  • DIEHL METERING

    Jean-François Marguet, CEO

    “The CEE brought to life a process for which the seeds had already been planted in our company. Saying to our employees: “we want to give you more, you are capable of giving more”, forcing us to think about what more we could give them, how to show them they are important, that they can influence the decision-making process and the fate of the company, this was an extraordinary breakthrough”.

    Career : After 18 years in management consulting and 9 years as a senior executive member in insurance, I support managers in their strategic thinking and the transformation within teams, by working on the meaning to regain commitment. I rely on a rigorous methodological approach, personalized support for teams and individuals and the consistency of the management policy. My epistemological underpinnings are: the balanced scorecard, the strategic and systemic approach to problem solving (from Palo Alto’s Mental research institute) and christian anthropology (DSE).

OUR TEAM

Today, CEE Management has up to fourty consultants

CEE Management is not a consultancy or a network, it is an association of independent entrepreneurs who share the same anthropological vision as to the central role of people in business and in all management.

Our association-based structure is part of our DNA: it brings the dynamics of entrepreneurship, a wealth of multiple, regularly shared, experiences, the strength of common convictions and the flexibility essential for adapting to the needs in the field. It is one of the main keys to our success.

All of the consultants at CEE Management have at least ten years’ experience in business. Most of them have worked in top management and in international companies
We work in French, English, German, Arab, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese.
