NOTRE ÉQUIPE
Psychologues, universitaires, dirigeants, professionnels de santé… nous nous sommes rencontrés à l'université Paris-Dauphine. Nous partageons une conviction : si le changement est une fatalité, en souffrir n'en est pas une.


Maxime Rabéchault
Founder of UNREST, Maxime starts from a simple observation: organizations and managers are now exposed to an unprecedented increase in uncertainty. In this context, being well-trained or informed is no longer enough; we need to have adequate cognitive-behavioral resources.
However, most leadership development systems still rely on static personality tests. They produce reassuring categories, but prove to be ineffective in the face of the brutal reality of transformations.
An approach at the confluence of health and performance
To break with these theoretical models, Maxime chose to cross two fundamental pillars:
- The WHO framework : it allows us to consider change through the prism of Psychosocial Skills (CPS). For the World Health Organization, these capacities are the foundation that allows an individual to respond effectively to the requirements and challenges of daily life.
- The psychology of organizations with an Anglo-Saxon tradition : Maxime supports the UNREST protocol with scientific research (especially American and British), recognized for its approach pragmatic and results-oriented. This discipline does not treat change as an abstract concept, but as a set of behaviors that are measurable and developable in action.
UNREST was born from this ambition: to transform these psychological resources into real strategic levers. By making agility cognitive operational, UNREST helps decision makers to strengthen their performance and resilience in an environment where the only constant is uncertainty.

We are Change Enablers
We share a lot of things, in particular the fact that we have all been trained at Paris-Dauphine University and, through our respective backgrounds, to embody change.


A common ambition
UNREST relies on a team of practitioners trained inParis Dauphine-PSL University, in management sciences And in Organizational psychology.
We share a common academic base, a strong methodological requirement and a clear conviction: the ability to deal with change is becoming the key skill to develop in these times of radical uncertainty.
All our stakeholders have a vSignificant professional experience in business and of a specialization directly linked to UNREST programs (resilience, agility, psychological security, collective intelligence, etc.).
We are heirs of the cognitive-behavioral approach, action-oriented, learning and measurable transformation. We consider the resilience as a trainable skill, in the same way as managerial or decision-making skills.
That is why we refuse the fuzzy and falsely benevolent coaching, inspirational discourses without a framework, and leadership development disconnected from organizational realities.
Our ambition is clear: help sustainably, by providing structured methods, proven tools and observable results, not above-ground, complacent... and counterproductive well-being support.
To be useful. Now and permanently.
In a context of polycrisis, it is time to deploy functional approaches, rooted in reality and at the service of individuals.
Why call on us?
We make change your comparative advantage and a source of development for your talents.
Preparing organizations for an uncertain world
In a radically uncertain world, the performance of an organization depends on its adaptability. UNREST is the first exchange enABLEMENT firm designed to develop this behavioral and relational competence.

UNREST in a nutshell
This method has its roots in cognitive and behavioral psychology as well as in applied neuroscience. It transposes to the world of organizations protocols from academic research, aimed at understanding how our mental structures (our thoughts) influence our reactions (our behaviors). At UNREST, we don't treat change as just an intention or a state of mind, but as an operational skill.
Our method is based on three concrete pillars:
- Observable behaviors: what you really do in the face of the unexpected.
- Identifiable cognitive patterns: the biases and thought patterns that influence our behaviors.
- Real working conditions: the systemic and organizational environment that influences action.
This approach makes it possible to go beyond general discourse to intervene in a structured, measurable and sustainable way. We do not act on the “desire to change”, but on the concrete capacity to transform the mechanisms that condition collective effectiveness.
The mission of UNREST is to help decision-makers and organizations make change a comparative advantage, by turning uncertainty into a driver of performance. Our value proposition is based on the development of Psychosocial Skills (CPS), defined by the WHO as “the ability of a person to respond effectively to the demands and challenges of daily life”. By making these skills strategic, measurable and trainable, we act simultaneously on individual, collective and organizational dimensions. UNREST does not promise rapid or comfortable change, but an increased ability to decide, cooperate, and act effectively in complex situations. By cultivating this active resilience, we enable organizations to no longer suffer from instability, but to exploit it to innovate and last.
Where coaching or leadership development often rely on implicit models or approaches that are not very objective, UNREST provides a common framework based on:
- the initial assessment of cognitive, behavioral and contextual skills,
- the explicit modeling of the levers of change,
- structured cognitive-behavioral training,
- and the measurement of impact over time. UNREST thus reinforces the centrality of the fundamentally human and fraternal aid relationship, with a structured, standardized and traceable framework.
S.H.A.R.P.® is the first change enalization model, designed to develop the behavioral skills that make change acceptable, desirable, and sustainable. Scientific, sequential and operational, it guides individuals towards autonomy by combining diagnosis, experimentation and evaluation.
UNREST is the first leadership development and cultural transformation firm, specializing in the development of cognitive and behavioral skills of organizations in the face of change and uncertainty. Our major difference lies in the transition from “declamative” advice to sustainable and profound transformation engineering, structured around three pillars:
- Targeted scientific expertise: unlike general coaching, we work exclusively on the cognitive mechanisms of action. We do not transmit theoretical models, we reinforce cognitive resources that can be observed and activated in real working conditions.
- A hybrid device (human + digital twin): UNREST is not limited to conversational coaching. Our human approach is extended by a cognitive-behavioral twin. This technological tool supports decision-makers over the long term to help take a step back, identify recurring patterns and anchor progress between two sessions.
- Anchoring yourself in “real work”: we do not recommend working remotely. Our protocol is designed to be integrated into the daily flow of activity. The objective is to transform the professional field into a permanent learning laboratory.
- In summary: UNREST goes beyond the divide between strategic advice (often too theoretical) and coaching (sometimes too subjective). We propose a structured system that equips human competence with the rigor of applied science.
