Who is AMIRAL?
Maxime Gaudreau
Executive coach and facilitator based in Montreal. After 20 years in corporate roles spanning software engineering, communications, digital marketing and executive leadership at Cirque du Soleil, I launched my independent coaching and facilitation practice in 2018. Eight years later, one conviction still drives my work:
"The quality of human relationships is the engine of lasting success."
I combine strategic vision, pragmatism and human depth to help managers and their teams make sound decisions and turn relational challenges into tangible performance.

This rare combination lets me bring together analytical rigor and emotional intelligence, and guide my clients through their challenges, including adoption of augmented intelligence, in their daily job.
