Our approach

Pourquoi Pas supports a strong and distinctive philosophy: Why not?

At the heart of Pourquoi Pas are people.

They are at the centre of everything Pourquoi Pas does: the purpose and the reason to exist. We take individual leaders and organizations on a journey of self reflection and discovery, challenging the conscious and subconscious beliefs that hold us back.

Much like the relationship we have with ourselves, our relationship with others is equally conducive to happiness and fulfilment. Humans are inherently social creatures, wired to connect with others on all levels; biologically, physically, cognitively and spiritually. We seek connection, providing meaning and purpose in the everyday.Tout comme notre relation avec nous-mêmes, notre relation avec les autres est essentielle pour notre bonheur et notre épanouissement.En tant qu’êtres humains, nous sommes intrinsèquement sociaux et avons besoin de nous connecter avec les autres à tous les niveaux : biologique, physique, cognitif et spirituel. Nous cherchons des liens qui donnent un sens et une raison d’être à notre vie quotidienne.

A tailored approach

 

At Pourquoi Pas, we begin and meet our clients there where they are. The focus is on them and their needs.

We believe in the power of open-ended questions. Open-ended questions are exploratory and generative. They are extremely useful because they enable the individual to gain clarity, greater self and situational awareness and uncover blockers. They help shed light on triggers and more.

Pourquoi Pas’ bench of coaches offers different types and styles of coaching:

Performance coaching

Individuals are invited to imagine themselves at the height of their performance and in complete flow - that state of being where everything feels effortless and exhilarating at once.

Conflict coaching

Individuals experiencing conflict at home, at school or at work are invited to increase their own level of self-awareness vis-à-vis conflict (in other words, are they an instigator, are they aggressive or passive-aggressive, or are they an avoider of conflict?) and to identify authentic ways to engage with others and achieve meaningful, lasting resolutions.

Leadership coaching

Leaders (regardless of level or span of control) are invited to grow and develop as a conscious leader and to hone their leadership skills regardless of whether they are an individual contributor, a manager, or a senior executive (c-suite).

Transition or career coaching

Individuals who are wanting to transition to something different (laterally or vertically) are invited to consider various options that are consistent with their core values – this can include mock interviews followed by constructive feedback. Transition coaching also includes supporting individuals within the first 100 or more days into a new role.

Organizational or business coaching

Business owners and entrepreneurs are given space to reflect and identify goals, and to subsequently design and implement concrete strategies to obtain those goals and elevate the overall performance of their people and their organization.

Student coaching

Students are often faced with difficult choices regarding their education - be it at university or in the trades, in their home country or abroad. One common question they ask themselves is “What do I want to do? What’s next?” To support and encourage these young adults to answer those questions and many others, space is created to enable them to reflect on their goals and explore the endless possibilities during this crucial time of their lives.

Team coaching

For the first time in history, the workforce is made up of 5 generation of workers each impacted by different social, economic, and political influences. Team coaching is an intimate coaching space wherein the individuals of the same team come together to accomplish a host of issues, including but not limited to, Foster trust Establish common ground Clarify mandate, purpose, priorities, roles and responsibilities Resolve conflict Improve communication and relationships Create synergy and more.

Group coaching

Group coaching is a facilitated safe space wherein individuals that share common interests come together as a peer group to grow and learn from one another. This shared process is commonly referred to as generating or cultivating “collective wisdom” stemming from the group itself.

Coach mentoring

Are you a coach in need of mentoring to meet your ICF or other accreditation? At Pourquoi Pas, we also offer mentoring to coaches and leaders who are looking to hone and perfect their skills in effective and impactful coaching.

Mindset coaching

An individual’s mindset is shaped by a multitude of factors from socialization to genetics. It is shaped by the individual’s upbringing, education, relationships with people and things (eg, money, house, cars), and a host of other lived experiences throughout life. Going forward, an individual’s mindset will shape the nature of their decisions, actions, reactions, and inactions. Mindset coaching invites the individual to uncover the assumptions through which they interpret life – and enable them to revise and reverse thought patterns and belief systems that may not serve them well.

Our story

‘If the path you are on is inconsistent with who you are, change paths boldly or one small step at a time.’
– Mimi Moore, Founder & Executive Coach

Disillusioned with the workplace, Mimi Moore retired after having experienced incredible highs and lows. Her own journey led her to wanting to have a more positive and human impact in people’s lives.

Born out of that desire was the bold decision in 2017 to establish her own coaching and consulting, client-focused boutique firm called exeCoaching International.

Undaunted by the pandemic and closed borders, Mimi reached out to individuals around the world – building a clientèle based across Canada and the United States, Europe, South Africa and Asia.

At every turn, Mimi asked her clients whose dreams felt unrealistic or unattainable, “why not?”

The rhetorical question, Pourquoi Pas in French, enabled clients to pause and reflect, imagine and dream, pivot and then take the bold decisions and necessary steps – big or small – to manifest life-long aspirations with meaning and purpose.

In five short years, Mimi realized the incremental but transformational impact she and her team were having on their clients all over the world by starting with that one simple question. Why not?

The ethos of the company evolved. It emerged with greater clarity and purpose.

By 2022, the time was right to change its name to Pourquoi Pas Coaching International to better reflect its raison d’être, its playful yet meaningful purpose: to inspire others to boldly and creatively design their best possible life at work, at home and at play.

Today, Pourquoi Pas has clients all over the world and continues to expand with its message of change imbued with possibility and hope.
