About Humanys Solutions

Stéphane Gigon has real experience in the field. An experienced profit centre manager in the Services sector, he has managed multi-disciplinary teams in Switzerland and has worked as a career transition master coach, mainly for managers and specialists, for over 20 years.

He does not manage from an ivory tower, but is very close to his team. He systematically does everything he can to put his staff in the best possible position, which helps to boost everyone's performance.

A humanist entrepreneur at heart, he mobilises his team towards a common goal with benevolence. His energy and creativity naturally radiate out to those around him.

More than 250 managers have benefited from Stéphane's coaching expertise. His pragmatic, results-oriented approach has enabled the vast majority of them to find a new and lasting challenge in the job market. Creative, he has developed a psychometric tool and created an innovative concept enabling coaches to optimise their chances of success during a recruitment interview. With his natural empathy, Stéphane communicates easily with his coaches to create a lasting relationship of trust.

The aspects of communication that he masters enable him to capture the attention of coaches and become a motivational booster. As a technical manager at elite sports level for 12 years, this rich experience has definitively shaped his entrepreneurial dynamism, which he naturally passes on to his environment. His playground is mainly Switzerland, where he has an extensive network across the economic fabric of French-speaking Switzerland.

Stéphane studied at the universities of Geneva and Lausanne and has several product licences in sales and negotiation, communication and emotional intelligence.

A keen sportsman in general, he enjoys golf and skiing, after playing ice hockey and football for many years.

Lionel Tallent's professional career has been shaped by industry, and he has held several positions within an international group for over 16 years. Starting out in sales, he soon took on responsibility for apprentice training in French-speaking Switzerland.

Then, with a strong interest in finance, he began a federal diploma in finance and accounting, alternating with responsibility for management control for the group's five branches, one in German-speaking Switzerland and the other in French-speaking Switzerland. Wishing to add human value, and in line with his affinity for operational business, he was given the opportunity to move internally within the parent company and manage a team for the Bas-Valais region. After more than three years of acquisition, loyalty and success, and with a child on the way, a promotion just a stone's throw away presented itself: taking over the administrative department for French-speaking Switzerland, with a dozen directly-managed employees.

After two years as a manager and member of the regional management, it was time to discover new horizons, to take to the open sea... Following this rich experience, Lionel decided to make a 180° turn to support and develop human values. Always very interested in training, he decided to train as a professional coach and then take the federal diploma in adult education, which he is now completing. Throughout these years, he has always been committed to his colleagues, with participative leadership, while exceeding the objectives set for him. Keen to deepen this approach and motivated to pass on his experience, Lionel entered the world of consulting and coaching in 2017. At the same time, he works in various associations and gives courses, not forgetting his role as curator for the canton of Vaud.

Lionel joined Humanys Solutions in April 2019 as HR Senior Consultant. Very enthusiastic and interested in human relations, Lionel will bring you his energy and expertise on a daily basis, an absolute necessity during a job search process. "Coming together is a beginning; staying together is progress; working together is success". Henry Ford quote

After working for almost 15 years in the automotive sector, more specifically in the spare parts after-sales service, and having managed various departments such as logistics, sales, purchasing and administration, he was asked to take charge of apprentice training and personnel management.

The approach to human relations in a company then particularly motivated him, and he wanted to redirect his career in this field by completing the Personnel Management Assistant training course in 2015, successfully finalised in 2017.

Strengthened by this academic training, he was given the opportunity in 2018 to join Humanys Solutions.

Highly solutions-oriented, he is an effective operational partner in all project and resource planning, and oversees the administrative management of Humanys' various HR activities. This approach is at the heart of his motivation within the team.

He is passionate about bridging the gap between employers and candidates and adding value.
