SMARTE (Strategy · Motivation · Agility · Resilience · Transparency · Excellence)
SMARTE Coaching supports organisations, executives, entrepreneurs and teams with a unique method: six levers to turn every setback into a springboard, and one key to activate them: neuroscience.
Human first!
It is the ability to take a shock, adapt to it and come out stronger than before. One day, cash runs short, the team splits, the exam is failed, a life trial arrives. On that day, anyone can feel stuck or want to stop everything. The good news: resilience can be learned, and we train you in it.
SMARTE Coaching is an African human transformation concept, born in Douala and designed for the whole continent. Our conviction: we develop people, and people build the company, society and the nation.
Economic crises, digital transformation, pressure on results: uncertainty has become the norm. What allows you to come back stronger is resilience. And resilience can be learned.
Each programme is designed for a specific audience, with its own tools and its own four-level certification. Not sure which one fits? Take the free resilience test (6 minutes).

Discover the programme →Stress, conflict, overwhelmed managers, divided teams, changes that are hard to anchor: for every human challenge in your company, there is an answer.
SMARTE acts on all six levers at once. That is what makes its results last.
The SMARTE method tells you what to work on. Neuroscience explains how change takes root. That is the difference between a simple realisation and a transformation that lasts.
How your brain reacts to stress, failure and change, and how to give your willpower the right support.
Spot the automatic thoughts and beliefs that hold you back, with tools drawn from cognitive-behavioural approaches.
Build new habits through practice and repetition, until they hold by themselves.

The essentials about our services, our method and how to work with us.
SMARTE Coaching supports people and organisations who want to stand firm in adversity, bounce back and succeed for the long term. Based in Douala, we work through coaching, training and resilience programmes, with a method of our own: the SMARTE method, activated by neuroscience.
Companies and organisations, executives, managers, entrepreneurs and professionals. The Academic Resilience and Personal Resilience programmes, intended for pupils, students and individuals, are delivered under licence.
A service (coaching, training or tailored support) responds to a specific situation in your company. A resilience programme transforms a group around the six SMARTE pillars, over a period tailored to its needs, and leads to a certification.
Five types of coaching: organisational, executive, managerial, team and public speaking. Five training courses: emotional intelligence, stress management, workplace conflict management, leadership and managerial performance, neuroscience (three levels). And tailored support, which combines coaching, training and workshops over time. See all our services →
Training passes on the techniques: structuring a speech, working on voice, eye contact and gestures. Coaching, intended for executives, managers and entrepreneurs, works on the speaker’s inner state: it goes back to the roots of the fear, often linked to childhood or to an unpleasant experience, and draws on neuroscience and cognitive-behavioural approaches (gradual desensitisation, cognitive restructuring) to break mental barriers, face the fear of public speaking and of other people’s judgement, and rebuild confidence and self-esteem.

A transformation system built around six complementary pillars: Strategy, Motivation, Agility, Resilience, Transparency and Excellence. Each pillar has its objective, its tools and a specific result. Discover the method →
It is our key to transformation. The SMARTE method says what to work on; neuroscience and cognitive-behavioural approaches explain how change takes hold: understand how the brain reacts, unlock what holds people back, then anchor new habits that last.
Our approach follows four steps: diagnosis, intervention, measurement and follow-up. The programmes start and end with the SMARTE Resilience Index, a questionnaire that assesses the six pillars: you measure your progress in concrete terms, and a company measures its return on investment. Follow-up, offered for up to 6 months, then anchors the changes.
We measure on three fronts, with indicators agreed with you from the diagnosis.
We record these figures at the start, at the end and during follow-up, so you can see in black and white what has changed.
Yes. Each programme leads to a four-level certification: Leader, Coach, Mentor and Expert, for example ‘Leader in Managerial Resilience’. For organisations, the Resilient Organisation label is currently being designed. See the certifications →
