The Ardian Talks
The one-of-a-kind event that lets you discover inspiring stories
The Ardian Talks, organized by Ardian once or twice a year, are highlights where certain employees share memorable personal or professional experiences that have profoundly influenced their lives or their careers at Ardian.
Supervised by experts from Dynergie, participants receive thorough preparation to hone their storytelling and public speaking skills in preparation for this internal TEDx event.
Iterative coaching
Dynergie provided support to the four participants in the 2023 event through three sessions of personalized coaching.
During the first session, each participant spoke with profound sincerity, sharing a significant experience they had gone through. After analyzing each account, the experts at Dynergie provided recommendations tailored to each individual’s profile and story, thereby establishing a common thread by identifying the elements to highlight.
During the second session, the various pitches were structured in a more refined manner, putting the previously provided recommendations into practice. The necessary formatting adjustments were finalized during the third session, ensuring consistency and excellence in the overall presentation of the testimonials while emphasizing stage presence.
This iterative process helped refine each story, enhance the impact of the storytelling, and prepare the participants as confidently as possible for their presentations at this internal TEDx event.
The results
The event is generating a lot of excitement.
The event was once again a hit with the 150 in-house spectators. Tickets sold out in just two hours, and many people expressed their desire to participate themselves in a future edition.
In conclusion.
Dynergie's approach was not only to provide professional guidance, but also to create a space where each participant could find an authentic and powerful voice to share their experience in a meaningful way.

The Ardian Talks were developed in partnership with Dynergie to create a relaxed setting where colleagues can get to know one another in a new light, through a topic that is close to their hearts. It has become a must-attend event that is extremely popular internally. It also serves as an excellent opportunity for speakers to practice public speaking and speech writing.
