Ludovic Baumgartner, Executive Coach
“If you do not work on yourself more than on the outside world, you are not in command. You are a passenger.”

A mid-market company in full growth
We brought in Ludovic to work with our Executive Committee through a phase of rapid growth and transformation. Beyond the tools, he brings a rare quality: the ability to surface the real issues, challenge certainties and help each of us step back and look at how we lead. His sessions helped our leadership team gain alignment, decision quality and collective effectiveness. The exchanges are direct, with no complacency, and always geared toward action and results. I recommend Ludovic without hesitation to any leadership team looking to reach the next level.

A climate of trust, a real breakthrough
I had the opportunity to work with Ludovic through an executive coaching program, and it proved particularly valuable. He knows how to create a climate of trust while challenging, with precision, the executive's thinking, behaviors and ways of operating. His coaching allowed me to step back and acquire concrete tools to keep progressing. A real breakthrough took place: the insights are there, the fundamentals understood and integrated. I recommend Ludovic to any executive who wants to gain altitude and evolve their leadership posture.

An accelerator of transformation and performance
In a phase of rapid growth for our group, we brought in Ludovic to coach our Executive Committee, both individually and collectively. Through personalized coaching, each member of the leadership team was able to step back and examine their leadership, their posture and their ways of operating — Ludovic adapts with precision to each personality. At the collective level, he helped us strengthen our cohesion and develop more effective, more authentic interactions. What sets him apart: his ability to combine genuine support and high standards. His coaching is a true accelerator of transformation and performance.

I have met many coaches...
I have worked with many coaches over the course of my leadership career. But with Ludovic, the experience is of an entirely different order. His method is deeply innovative. It allowed me to reprogram the way I perceive my environment and to better master my state of mind. As Ludovic often says, it is a genuine superpower for making decisions with lucidity. His precision is remarkable, the results are fast — and above all, they last.

Deep, structured, transformative coaching
His coaching was far more than support: a deep exploration of my values, my goals and my personality. The methods used were powerful, concrete, sometimes surprising, but always effective. This path, so different from classic approaches, allowed me to build clear, lasting action plans and to break certain routines.

Give yourself this gift!
I went through one of the most traumatic professional periods of my life and I felt myself drifting. These 3 months were intense in what they revealed about me, and helped me reprogram my beliefs and accept my own legitimacy. I decided to choose myself. Ludovic's voice still echoes in my head and keeps me from slipping back onto the wrong path. I have built new habits.

A transformative experience
What makes his approach unique is his ability to cut straight to what matters, using methods that are unconventional but powerfully effective. He does not simply coach you — he deprograms the mental patterns holding you back, often ones you are not even aware of. This is not coaching in the classic sense: it is a form of deep alignment, a kind of inner update.

I turned to Wegartner at a pivotal moment
The coaching brought clarity where there was fog, and momentum where I was going in circles. The protocol is structured and demanding, but never rigid — you sense true mastery of the tools, with ample room left for the human side. A major decision I had been postponing for months finally got made, a key relationship settled down, and I move forward with more composure. I recommend him without reservation.

THE book to help you overcome your mental blocks
Finally a genuinely different book. An effective rhythm that never lets you drop off. Full of simple, actionable advice to finally overcome limiting beliefs. Drawing on neuroscience explained in a way anyone can understand, the author lets us see the reason behind some of our recurring behaviors — and above all, put an end to them. I recommend it to everyone who is not looking for yet another coaching book but for the last one: THE solution.

Highly recommended — Practically a full training program
One of the best books I have read on personal development. It leads you into introspection and at the same time gives you the tools to act. Honestly, I think it will be my last book on the subject, because I have finally found the most complete guide (theory and practice). Thanks again to the author for a book that is practically a full training program.

Overwhelming and astonishing
I was new to this book and its author, and I started it with few illusions about its content or its method. This book is powerful, overwhelming and astonishing. I am 60 years old — why did I not have this book earlier? I would have spared myself a great deal of pain. I now look ahead with a clear VISION of what I want.

Take back control of your brain
I am often skeptical of the sheer abundance of personal-development offerings, and above all of their lack of legitimacy. This book caught my interest because its author's track record is substantial. “The magic we seek lies in the efforts we avoid.” This book will let you take back control of your brain.

An excellent guided journal — for yourself or as a gift
The format is original. You feel like you are in conversation with your coach, prompting you to act, take charge of yourself and begin the transformation. It is dynamic and reads very quickly, in the form of a guided journal where you can write down your notes and reflections.
