Marion Buchet
Marion Buchet, a former fighter pilot with 3,000 flying hours and a degree in psychology, currently works in cybersecurity and performance and leadership consultancy.
With 3,000 hours of flight time in the Mirage F1 and Mirage 2000, Marion Buchet offers a unique insight into decision-making under pressure. As a former fighter pilot with a Master's degree in Psychology, she draws on her background to decipher the psychological mechanisms that guide our actions and to share lessons that can be applied to the business world.
At the heart of this keynote, Marion explores the fundamentals of individual and collective performance: how do we identify effective behaviour? What mechanisms influence our decisions, even unconsciously? And how can we optimise our abilities to perform better? Using concrete examples from military aviation and professional environments, she proposes practical ways to understand and improve the management of emotions and the unexpected.
This talk is for anyone who wants to gain a better understanding of human dynamics at work and develop tools to improve decision-making and leadership in complex situations. Accessible and based on experience, this conference offers useful keys for all sectors of activity.
