Savez-vous ce que veut dire « avoir vent de… » ? Et ce qu'est une question pointue ? Thomas Fersen va vous l'apprendre avec poésie, humour et… tendresse.

Paroles de la chanson : Les tours d'horloge

Depuis ton départ
Lyon est une gare
et moi je suis resté lyonnais.
Tu es sur la ligne
moi à la consigne
avec mes pièces de monnaie.

REFRAIN :
Et les tours d'horloge
me serrent la gorge.
Chaque seconde me tue.
Sait-on où tu loges ?
Quand reviendras-tu ?
Comme ces questions sont pointues.

Et le long du Rhône,
c'est pour ton fantôme
que je laisse pendre ma main.
Maudissant ton nom
car, du cabanon,
tu me fais prendre le chemin.

REFRAIN

Et puis tu reviens
dans mon quotidien,
j'apprends par le carnet du jour
Qu'aujourd'hui les cloches
célèbrent tes noces
avec un autre, mon amour.

REFRAIN

Quand d'autres rencontres
dérèglent ma montre,
alors je connais le repos
Mais à chaque fois
que j'ai vent de toi,
je cavale après mon chapeau.

LE ROCHER DE TANIOS. Amin Maalouf. Note au lecteur

Let me tell you something. In the world of business, communication is king. But forget fancy speeches and teleprompters. What you really need is the ability to connect, to think on your feet, and inspire – on the spot. That's where I come in.

As your business communication coach, I won't just train you to speak. I'll help you find your voice, the one that resonates with authenticity and power. We'll work together to build a foundation of strong business acumen. Numbers, trends, market forces – these aren't just dry facts, they're the fuel that propels your message.

But knowledge alone isn't enough. You have to be able to listen, truly listen, to the people you're speaking with. What are their concerns? Their aspirations? We'll hone your active listening skills, so you can build bridges, not walls, during those impromptu interactions.

Now, let's be honest, practice makes perfect. We won't just talk the talk, we'll walk the walk. Mock interviews, simulated meetings, even impromptu presentations on random business topics – we'll throw you curveballs, and you'll learn to hit them out of the park. We'll record your sessions, analyze them together, and help you refine your delivery, ditch the filler words, and find that clear, concise style that cuts through the noise.

Remember, confidence is key.  I'll be your guide, your cheerleader, pushing you to embrace challenges and see every unexpected speaking opportunity as a chance to grow. Because ultimately, it's not about having all the answers, it's about the passion and purpose behind them.

So, are you ready to step up, to take your communication skills to the next level?  Together, we can turn you into an impromptu speaking champion, someone who commands attention, inspires collaboration, and leaves a lasting impression. Let's get started.

ドイツ人はとてもアイスが好きです。どの町にもアイスカフェが数軒あります。一年中、外でアイスを食べている人を見かけます。三月はまだ寒いですが、天気がいい日にはカフェのテラス席でたくさんの人がアイスを食べています。
ちなみに私はドイツであまりアイスを食べません。イタリアに行った時にジェラートをたくさん食べるからです。
日本ではコンビニでアイスを買う人が多いと思います。私のお気に入りのアイスはもちの中にバニラアイスが入っている雪見大福（ゆきみだいふく）とハーゲンダッツの抹茶味です。
みなさんはどんなアイスが好きですか？

ちなみに：by the way
