Pascal Lafortune

Martine Levasseur

General Manager at Caisse Desjardins du Piémont Laurentien

« Jean-François Lacasse's conference deeply resonated with our team. His human approach, grounded in reality, created a true moment of reflection and kindness. What particularly struck me was his ability to connect performance and well-being through powerful and accessible imagery — notably the aviation analogy and the concept of calibration rather than balance. Jean-François has that rare skill of addressing a sensitive subject with accuracy and authenticity. His field experience, combined with his knowledge of the Desjardins network, makes his message even more impactful and relevant. »

Lysa Bergeron

VP HR, Communications and Sustainable Development at Harnois Énergies

« Jean-François delivers a strong and authentic message that makes us aware of the importance of taking care of our mental health. He makes this still very taboo subject much easier to address. He invites us to reflect on certain behaviors while encouraging us to change them individually. »

Marie-Josée Poulin

Assistant General Manager / Caisse Desjardins Sud de la Chaudière

« Bringing in Jean-François was a first-class investment for the well-being of our employees. Being able to please so many people during a presentation is not always easy for a speaker. This demonstrates the quality of his message and, by extension, the quality of the messenger. Congratulations on this success! »

Hélène Michel

CPA Auditor, Partner in charge of the Quebec Audit Department at Mallette S.E.N.C.R.L

« Thank you to Jean-François for sharing his story with us, without taboo. Everyone must take care of their mental health and our employees are now better equipped to react at the first signs. His method is simple but highly effective for assessing one's mental health. »

Francisca Dupuis, CRIA

VP Team Development, Culture and Technology at Groupe Dallaire Inc.

« Jean-François captured our teams' attention by first sharing his personal experience — something everyone can relate to — which fosters individual awareness. He then introduced very simple concepts that seem easy to integrate into our lives, like the 'gentle to-do list' and the 1-degree concept. It's refreshing and comforting to be offered actions that promote our well-being in a healthy, positive and caring way, without falling into the performance trap once again! »

Audrey Beaulieu

General Manager / City of Sainte-Brigitte-de-Laval

« Sharing a personal experience added tremendous credibility to the presentation. The closeness with people, the communication style, the use of props, and the visual and video support added a superior level of quality and helped capture attention on a subject that is not always easy to address. »

Mario Aylwin

General Manager at Caisse Desjardins de Beloeil Mont-Saint-Hilaire

« Check Your Lights wasn't just another conference on our agenda. It sparked a real conversation — sincere, clear-eyed and deeply human — about our caring and authentic leadership. Jean-François offered us much more than content. He offered us a mirror. His very transparent, accessible and resolutely solution-oriented approach touched us as much as it made us think. The heart of the message — the ability to self-observe in order to better adjust our habits — resonated with the team. We leave with a simple, concrete reflex that now belongs to us. And above all, we will keep it alive. Every quarter, we'll take a moment to revisit this reflex, refocus and especially ensure our lights stay on. »
