But maybe YOU WONDER WHAT\xe2\x80\x99S OUR STORY ?

-

At Paradox, we are convinced that people do not want \xe2\x80\x9cjust a job\xe2\x80\x9d anymore.

We are all craving to have an impact through our professional journey. Some want to start their own venture, some want to become an intrapreneur in their current organization, some others just want their day-to-day tasks to have more meaning.

PARADOX HAS ONE GOAL: TO EMPOWER PEOPLE AND ORGANIZATIONS TO LIVE THEIR TRUE AMBITIONS.

But where do we start?

If you have an interest in personal development, you probably already know that:

Making things happen is a real struggle when you don\xe2\x80\x99t know what truly inspires you and how to get there ;

Available resources are either boring or full of crazy unsubstantiated theories .

It needs to change, and we\xe2\x80\x99re here to make it happen!

\xef\xb8\x8f OUR AMBITION IS TO MAKE SUCCESS THE ONLY POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR OUR CLIENTS (WHATEVER SUCCESS MEANS FOR THEM), BY CRAFTING INNOVATIVE & CAPTIVATING BREAKTHROUGH EXPERIENCES.

In other words, we want to make personal growth as entertaining as watching Netflix.

How, you might be wondering?

We travel the world and surround ourselves with top entrepreneurs (Richard Branson - Founder of Virgin, Marc Simoncini - Founder of Meeting, Fred Mazzella - Founder of BlablaCar), world athletes (Frederick Bousquet - World record in 50m free swimming, Frank Leboeuf - WorldCup Footballer), and artists (Gad Elmaleh - Comedian, Barry Osborne - Producer of Lord of the Rings and Matrix) ;

We reverse engineer their strategies for achieving success and lean on the latest researches about neuroscience ;

We deliver trainings & educational contents around Power Skills (critical thinking, productivity, leadership, public speaking, coaching, stress management, etc.), self-growth and performance, through a balanced set of e-learning programs, events and edutainment videos .

From one well-known Founder to a team of +80 people today (and counting!), this approach has paid off and enabled us to exceed 2 million followers on social networks, and to have thousands of people attending our online events and training courses.

And here are the vessels we embarked on to complete our mission:

Giving our clients access to constant personal growth by reinventing their learning experience ;

IT MIGHT NOT BE FOR YOU

-

You don\xe2\x80\x99t like to be challenged and grow in your job

You don\'t like receiving or giving tough feedbacks

You don\xe2\x80\x99t usually try to improve the processes in place: if they are here, there is a reason

You like to have very specific tasks assigned to you that won\xe2\x80\x99t evolve in the course of a year

You like to be told what to do or how to do something on a daily basis

None of the following reflects your personal interests: personal development / coaching / professional growth / education / edtech / teaching / edutainment / impact startups

Your only driver is joining a full-remote company: yes, our company culture is cool, but we want people to care about our mission, products, and their job!
