Founder of Ascory — Creator of OSCA®
Camille Cointe
I created ASCORY to offer more precise professional coaching, built from a real reading of how a person functions, their context and the situations they face.
This approach draws together my experience of business and project management, coaching professionals and managers, the behavioural sciences, and more than twenty years of stage practice.
Why OSCA®?
Over the course of my coaching work, I noticed a recurring limitation: for an apparently similar issue, the same tools were often proposed. Yet a difficulty with delegation, a new role, a relational tension or an overload can have very different origins depending on the person and their context.
OSCA® was born from this determination to better identify the mechanisms at play before deciding on the coaching to put in place.
What feeds the approach
Business and project management
To understand the constraints, the trade-offs and the reality of professional environments.
Coaching and behavioural sciences
To analyse functioning and build precise development priorities.
Over twenty years on stage
To work, with particular attention, on presence, listening, intention, the spoken word and the effect produced on others.
The journey
The journey in detail
Stage
An actress for over twenty years, I learned on stage what management training rarely teaches: that presence can be developed, that posture is built, that intention transforms how a message is received. Every word, every gesture, every silence produces an effect, on stage as in business.
Transmission
In parallel, I work with executives and senior leaders. Very quickly, I realised that the tools of theatre (presence, posture, intention, listening, the impact of the spoken word) were precisely what many managers lacked to embody their leadership credibly and durably.
But I also realised that these approaches remained too general to produce lasting transformation.
Building a method
Over the course of these engagements, I wove these contributions together with the behavioural sciences: cognitive biases, pressure management, decision fatigue, the neuroscience of stress.
One observation guided this work: leaders are often coached on visible skills, while their real levers lie in finer dynamics: presence, pressure, decision-making, communication, the relationship to the collective.
It is from this interplay between stage, behavioural sciences and practice, and from this need for precision, that the Ascory method was born.
Two ways to act on leadership and communication
It all starts with a clear reading.
See your levers clearly.
An OSCA® diagnostic provides the first reading. From there, we build the coaching that truly matches your challenges.
