About Stéphanie
I am Stéphanie Akré, co-founder of the NPO Ludociels pour tous, a social economy digital company. Within Ludociels, I am an administrative manager and communications manager (and accountant, and manager of social networks, our websites, and podcast and video editor, and…). Like many small businesses, I wear multiple hats. In another life, I was a Massage Therapist / Physiotherapist. “One day”, I burned out… And I told myself that I needed time to rebuild myself and rest, so why not co-found a company??? Ha, ha… Here we go! How to make a website? How to be present on social networks? Which ones to choose? How to keep an accounting book? Um… What is bookkeeping??!! Stop, I'm breathing... I'll start again, one step at a time and I'll get help: - "Hello, I'm Sophie, I really like your mission, I can help you with social networks." - "Hi! It’s Justine, I’m ok to be part of your board of directors and help you clarify your mission and share your values.” … I surround myself with competent and talented women… And the adventure continues…

Learning Through Experience
Soft skill (Main Stage) (15:15 ~ 17:15)
My hypothesis: You can start, even with 0% qualification and learn through experience: an encouragement to get started, regardless of your initial skill level. To undertake, to start a collective enterprise or an NPO, you have no choice but to have this character trait!
How to “survive” experiential learning?
- Manage your stress (Stress factors) This method can generate more stress, but tools help to manage it
- Manage each situation at once: Find help as soon as a blockage occurs
- Abandon the cult of perfection: accept that “good enough” is enough and that each iteration improves results
- Redefine perfection: create/invent a work environment aligned with your values and your well-being.
Conclusion: It’s your turn!
- Call to action: “Start where you are, with what you have.”
