The cognitive-behavioral approach to change, embodied in the concept of Change Enablment, inherits the Anglo-Saxon scientific tradition. It is up to us to present the academic foundations to you.

Why call on us?
UNREST is a cognitive-behavioral change firm. It is based on a resolutely scientific, structured and demanding approach to individual and collective change.
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.
