Gestalt comes from the German verb “gestalten”, which means “to shape, to give a structure”.

The Gestalt is a method of accompanying change that draws on research carried out since the beginning of the last century on the psychology of form.

The Gestalt approach is concerned with the form given to the process of organizational development. Thus, in order to understand a behavior or a situation, it is not enough to concentrate the analysis on their symptoms. It is above all important to know how to perceive this behavior or this situation in the wider context of the global context (grasping form: FIGURE on a BOTTOM).

 To illustrate this description, see the image opposite.

Most observers do not immediately perceive a dog (SHAPE) but a disorderly display of black spots (symptoms).

Gestalt encourages the sustainable development of organizations.

“Elite Manager”: to learn more about the Gestalt OD approach

The EXPERIENCE approach aims to “Stimulate the development of organizations by helping managers to tame their emotional intelligence.”

Translated according to the different levels of human systems, this gives:

1 Individual level : Grant rational constraints and emotional aspirations of employees.

Examples: Personal development, Conflict management, Leadership, time management, sales styles …

2 Level Teams : Harmonize the quality of decisions and their degree of acceptance by the teams.

Examples: cooperation between departments, teamwork, decompartmentalization, creation of synergies, performance management …

3 Organization Level : Align the desired behaviors with subtle Cartesian reasoning with the current social reality of organizations.

Examples: support for change, transformation of organizational culture, behavioral change …

See some of our programs (examples)

The firm is affiliated with the international network of Gestalt consultants. This network makes it possible to develop interesting collaborations with partners located on the 5 continents of the globe.

The “core” of EXPERIENCE is composed of 7 consultants sharing the same values, methods and tools.

On each new project, we harmoniously combine the strengths, experiences and passions of our consultants.

“EXPERIENCE helps human systems work more effectively together.

EXPERIENCE consultants develop pragmatic interventions aimed at aligning the multi-oriented wills of the involved actors towards a more constructive goal.

The ethics of consultants EXPERIENCE leads them to adopt an attitude of benevolent neutrality vis-a-vis the wills present.

Thus, by respecting the needs and capacities of the systems concerned and in collaboration with all the participants involved (principals, managers, participants, peers, customers …), the EXPERIENCE approach promotes the coherence, dynamism and determination of projects. “

The path and values ​​of Dino Ragazzo, founder of EXPERIENCE, naturally led him to this humanist approach.

His experience of more than half a century in various organizations (companies, associations, committees, families, cultures …) taught him that the success of any realization was subordinated to the will of the people to combine their talents for the achievement Of the same design (Pyramids of Egypt, Eiffel Tower, Transmission of knowledge by the school, Democracy …).

EXPERIENCE consultants are convinced that this innate need to compose positively with others is essential to our human nature and that it is also necessary for us to realize ourselves and influence the world around us.

Together with the clients who honor us with their trust, we share the same pleasure in relying on these humanist values ​​to improve organizations in terms of economic, social, ecological and civic performance … and contribute to a better future for our children.

Each year, we devote a budget of about 20% of our turnover to our in-house training, to the acquisition of new skills and tools (Personal development of consultants, Acquisition of new practices, experimentation and development of new Methods, purchase of new software, etc.).

That is why we are determined to defend and explain the pricing of our services. We feel responsible for building these internal development resources that enable us to improve our services and continue to develop original, innovative and competitive approaches.

For 15 years, Dino Ragazzo coordinated various trades in the field of engineering. He also founded, directed and developed an SME (40 people) for 10 years. He has been in charge of EXPERIENCE since 1998.
