Collective intelligence

You're not the only one

Be-ikigai group workshops transform a solitary process into a collective experience. Because Ikigai is not a solo journey.

30 minutes · Free · No commitment

Solitary questioning drains. Collective presence liberates.

Jérôme was investing massively in inclusion projects, carrying all the weight alone, living this commitment as an increasingly heavy burden. His block wasn't a lack of meaning, it was isolation within that meaning. This phenomenon is documented: it's called the idealist's exhaustion. Japanese Ikigai philosophy has long answered this with the concept of Moai, that social support group inherited from Okinawa where individuals gather to support each other over time. Be-ikigai group workshops are the modern Moai: a space where individual questioning becomes collective fuel.

What happens in a workshop

Pierre-Louis facilitates 3 to 4-hour sessions in groups of 6 to 12 participants maximum. Beyond that, the depth of exchange dilutes. The format alternates individual exercises (exploring the four spheres) and guided group sharing (identifying common resonances, shared blocks, collective resources). The workshop can be held in a company (for teams in transition, executive committees seeking to realign a collective vision) or as an open group (for individuals who don't know each other but share the same questioning). In both cases, you leave with a personal map and real connections with other participants.

What you get out of it

The discovery that your questioning isn't an anomaly: others experience it too

A personal map of your four Ikigai spheres built in real time

Authentic connections with other participants on a similar path

A space facilitated by Pierre-Louis where nothing is validated out of politeness

For companies: an executive team realigned on a shared vision and individuals remobilised

It's made for you if…

  • Company teams going through a transition period or collective loss of meaning
  • Groups of individuals looking to explore Ikigai without an immediate individual process
  • HR professionals or managers who want to offer a personal development tool to their teams
  • Anyone who learns better in a group than one-on-one

It's not for you if…

  • You're looking for deep individual accompaniment: the Ikigai Assessment is designed for that
  • A superficial team-building event with no real meaning stakes (this isn't a disguised afterwork)
  • A group of more than 12 without the possibility of sub-groups (depth evaporates)
« When I defend a cause, I'm unstoppable. But when it comes to myself, I stall. The group showed me I was capable of applying to myself what I did so well for others. »

Exhausted Idealist profile, early 40s, non-profit sector, left the workshop convinced that accepting help doesn't betray his values.

Frequently asked questions

How long does a workshop last?
Between 3 and 4 hours depending on format and number of participants. A half-day workshop is the minimum to go deep.
Can a workshop be organised in a company?
Yes, it's one of the two main formats. Pierre-Louis adapts the content to the team or executive committee context.
Do participants know each other in advance?
Not necessarily. Open groups welcome strangers. Group dynamics work just as well, sometimes better, between people who don't know each other.
Is there a follow-up after the workshop?
The workshop is designed as a standalone experience. For individual follow-up, the Ikigai Assessment or Coaching Journey takes over.

A question before deciding?

The 30-minute discovery session is free and no-commitment. It's the best place to start.
