This is the story of a convinced European
OMNES Legal & Positive Lobbying was born of a strong desire to put my legal and communication skills to work for human-scale organizations in the private and voluntary sectors, who wish to increase their positive impact on society.
With a passion for politics and a passion for European integration as a child, I graduated from the Universities of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne and Paris 2 Panthéon-Assas. In 2012, I had the honor of working in the office of Nicole Fontaine, former President of the European Parliament, where I learned the basics of lobbying and influence strategy.
"Commitment as a common thread in my career".
Luxembourg business law...
A first experience in Luxembourg, during my Erasmus exchange semester, opened up a lot of perspectives that I had not been aware of until then (which proves that going on Erasmus is not just about going out to party).
I decided to go back once I'd graduated. I was I was sworn in as a lawyer (demonstrating the effectiveness of the European Union's system for recognizing diplomas between states).
I then specialized in business law and litigationworking for small firms as well as international Anglo-Saxon structures.
Like a superhero, I'm a lawyer by day and a community leader by night (and at weekends!). For over ten years, I was involved with the Young European Federalists, which enabled me to discover the world of associations and the wealth of resources that characterize it.
They are also a way for me to keep in touch with European affairs and take an active part in them.
... in search of meaning!
In 2019, I've decided to return to France to pursue my career as a lawyer and get closer to lobbying.
But the pandemic is on its way, and I'm becoming aware, in the context of discussions about the famous "world after", that nothing will ever be the same again: what I do must have meaning, and go beyond the simple application of legal knowledge acquired over the years.
What if I put my legal and communications know-how to work for players involved in the social economy?
That's when the planets aligned in my head and I decided to launch my own business, in April 2021.
It was also at this time that I realized one of my dreams by starting to teach, first at the Université Catholique de Lille, then also at the Université Paris-Saclay and the IESEG.
Alongside my strictly legal career path, in 2017 I discovered the importance of the diversity and diversification of the workforce, society and the need for change in representative functions.
This theme never lets go of me (or is it me who never lets go of it?) and I decide to train myself, to become an actress of change. an agent of change. Convinced of the importance of understanding and valuing diversity, I have accompanied European associations in their quest to create creating more inclusive societal spaces.
In 2022, I'm joining "Spark DEI", the network of consultants specialized in Diversity, Equity and Inclusion, and continue my training in this essential area.
Firm development
In April 2023, two years after my installation, I take a radical decision: I leave the bar.
The reason? Being a lawyer is confusing for my clients, and no longer allows me to embrace the diversity of the assignments I am entrusted with in a coherent way.
I'd like to take this opportunity to clarify the positioning to take on my 360° vision to support private and community players committed to increasing their positive impact, by giving them concrete tools to do so.
Mahatma Gandhi said:
"Be the change you want to see in the world".
By creating OMNES Legal & Positive LobbyingI decided to take him at his word.
Concretely,
what can I
do for you?
