At a time when ever-increasing demands are being placed on the human mind, and excellence, performance and success at any cost are affecting the way we organize our lives and work, how can we make the right decisions? And what if we could draw a parallel with the mindset of an athlete? So, what is the secret of champions who can maximize their concentration, manage pressure and control their emotions in an ever-changing competitive environment? That is what our speaker, Sylvain Guimond, will reveal to us. As a holder of a Ph.D. in sports psychology, a physical educator and an osteopath, he has worked with  renowned sports personalities, such as Mario Lemieux, Tiger Woods, Greg Norman, John Smoltz, Marc Gagnon and many others, and has found that they share characteristics that enable them to reach their goals and to achieve their dreams. Come and find out why our reactions to stressful situations are unavoidable, and how we can manage them. You too can have a career that is as fulfilling as it is productive – professionally and personally.  Our speaker will also regale you with amazing emotionally charged anecdotes. The conference will be held in French and will be followed by a cocktail. SPEAKER SYLVAIN GUIMOND, D.O., Ph.D. Founder Biotonix Learn more
