JEAN-FRANÇOIS
LACASSE

A man with a heart for serving others, Jean-François initially worked as a private practice lawyer at the very beginning of his career before moving into the financial services sector.

​

Just before turning to entrepreneurship, he held a position as a financial planner specializing in professionals and business leaders. In 2018, his life literally turned upside down...

​

No one is immune to a psychological health issue, and Jean-François never imagined he would one day fall victim to it. Convinced that his story can positively influence someone else's trajectory, he has embarked on a crusade across Canada and internationally for several years to raise awareness on a large scale but most importantly, to contribute in his own way to making psychological health an accessible topic within our homes, organizations, and institutions.

​

A committed ambassador in well-being, author, social entrepreneur, and philanthropist, he is also the creator of the unique and inspiring universe of MAYDAY M'AIDER. One thing is certain, after his intervention, you will no longer see mental health and the importance of taking care of it in the same way.

CONFERENCES:​

​

Since 2022, the unique, both inspiring and impactful concepts of MAYDAY! M'AIDER! have left a lasting impression and resonated with the hearts of people inside many large organizations.

​

No one is immune to a psychological health issue, and Jean-François never imagined he would one day fall victim to it. Over the years, despite the many resources available, he realized he had trapped himself while cultivating a conducive environment for his condition to appear.

​

Convinced that his story can positively influence someone else's trajectory, through this intervention, he positively raises awareness about the importance of self-care and regularly measuring one's psychological barometer using a self-management tool.

One thing is certain, with his numerous analogies to the aviation world, your team will no longer view mental health and the importance of taking care of it in the same way!

2. FIRST-CLASS LEADER ⏐A human approach to performance, know-how, and interpersonal skills

​

Since 2022, the simple, unique, and impactful concepts of MAYDAY! M'AIDER! have left a lasting impression and resonated with the hearts of people.

​

In recent years, numerous changes and upheavals in the work environment have significantly influenced the reality of many organizations, and consequently, the lives of their members.

​

In this conference, Jean-François humbly draws the parallel he discovered between the aviation world and the attributes of tomorrow's leader. He offers participants a journey to the heart of themselves. The term "first-class" is generally used to describe a high-end, luxurious travel experience, and for some, even an unattainable one. However, embodying first-class leadership is not optional. On the contrary, it is an accessible and conscious choice on a daily basis for those who desire it.

Indeed, it can symbolize the idea of striving for excellence, adopting a superior quality approach, and standing out in all aspects of life. It can also represent the idea of equipping oneself to succeed, taking care of oneself to live a rewarding and enriching experience.
