About the Course

When taking this course, you will raise your own self-awareness and gain self-confidence for a better leadership. You will discover a new approach to leadership based on trust and sense. The “Savoir-Relier” leadership, a new approach of leadership, taught to HEC MBA’s student and top executives, enables better team leadership and encourages relationships between people in spite of their differences of opinion. You will develop relational skills, self-knowledge and self-awareness on the way to unfold your own leadership style. You’ll learn the skills of The Savoir-Relier (SR) methodology for better connecting with yourself or others by going through the following 4 steps for successful leadership: Introspection, Conversation, Resilience and Responsibility toward Value Creation. In this first MOOC of the "Inspirational Leadership" specialization, you will practice the first two steps of the method for successful leadership: Introspection and Conversation. You will get to know yourself better during the Introspection part and get a chance to improve your communication skills in order to better interact with others. You will meet people like you who will share their stories and their experience with Savoir-Relier and why it is so inspiring for them in their life. Together, you’ll develop greater self-awareness by developing a leadership self-portrait and going through fun activities to increase your empathy and communication. Leaders from different organizations and participants of the HEC Paris Leadership Certificate, the program from which this course and specialization are inspired, will share with you their insights about what it takes to become a great leader and what they are able to achieve now that they apply The Savoir-Relier methodology. This course is part of the specialization “Inspirational Leadership: Leading with Sense”. In the next courses, you'll go through the second two steps of leadership: Resilience and Responsibility toward Value Creation....

I've really enjoyed this course, realizing about key aspects of the human relationships. Once you are aware of them, you can communicate to the others more emphatic and efficently, and the most important, you will listen to the others openly and with prejudgements.

This is really important to start understanding what is Leadership and how this skill will benefit you and the people around you.

A great course on understanding one's self and its surrounding with crafting his/her leadership skill based on the outcome. Had an opportunity to get feedback from a peer on evaluating leadership skills on top of my observation. Really practical approach to discover your traits to align your resources to build up on your leadership skills.

I greatly enjoyed the course. Valerie is very intriguing person. I enjoyed listening to her and doing all the exercises. I was nervous about the self portrait at first. In the end it was a wonderful exercise to look into yourself. I also enjoyed the conversation as I met a lovely lady called Ruth. Thank you to HEC and savior-relier team!

At the initial stage of course I was Jack but as the course continued, I felt that Leadership is not a function function & any motivated person can lead a team. Savoir Relier is a nice technique to develop Leadership. Moreover, online learning is wonderful & I felt that I am not in Classroom & learning online. Thanks.

Writing your self portrait (Solo) and open, non-judgemental sharing of your Solo with your Duo partner is an eye opening exercise when done honestly. Another aspect I appreciate, even though it may sound just a wordplay, is to use characteristics rather than Strengths/Weaknesses.

Valérie Gauthier is a leader herself, try to transform us to a Sensible Leader.

She has extensively explains all the topics with a wide range of examples and had a clear vision.

It is my pleasure to be part of it and I have learned a lot on the leadership skills, with more senses.

Great start! In this short preview of the Savoir Relier methodology, it is impossible not to soar and explore deep within in and also around your immediate, general, and macro surroundings, all important aspects to be able to 'craft' being genuine, generous, and generative!

My first week was amazing. I completed this within 2 days because I was so hooked and couldn't stop watching the videos. As an upcoming leader I have gained more knowledge and can't wait to tell my co-workers to sign up and take this course.

This course is very informative and useful to make a change in life. However, please advice how to learn more about 1) you and yourself, 2) you and others 3) you and group and 4) you and society. I am interested to study the above in detail.

A really great, insightful course! Expect the unexpected ;) Quite different than most of other courses that give certain theory and maybe some exercises, clearly it was made by a person with passion and a lot of experience in the subject.

Thank you HEC Paris for making the building your leadership program, really helping me as a person who was initially embarrassed to speak in front of others, and many other fears that began to disappear because of this learning process.
