"Parlons chiffres!" Podcast

Did you know that every dollar invested in training to support employee self-determination can generate more than $3.19 in profit for the organization?

That’s exactly the theme of the 6th episode of Parlons chiffres! featuring our guest Jacques Forest, Professor-Researcher at ESG-UQAM and Organizational Psychologist.

In this episode, hosted by Alexandre Comtois and Elisabeth Starenkyj, we explore when training becomes a true source of profit: how autonomy, competence, and relatedness transform engagement, reduce organizational costs, and generate tangible results for companies.

We also discuss:

✔️ The three universal needs that foster lasting motivation

✔️ The limits of money as a motivational lever

✔️ The myth of younger generations’ supposed lack of engagement

✔️ A free tool to focus on strengths rather than weaknesses
