The Expertise Caroline Delvaux

What this coach knows—and how it helps you.

Master HR EMLYON, 12 years HR Director, 300+ managers trained, HBR France contributor
Background

After 12 years as HR Director at a Lyon tech company, Caroline experienced firsthand the challenge of managing Gen Z employees. She developed the BRIDGE Method to help managers communicate effectively across generations without losing their authority or burning out.

After 12 years as HR Director at a large Lyon tech company, I experienced the massive arrival of Gen Z firsthand. In 2019, my turnover rate exploded, my managers couldn't enforce basic rules anymore, and I myself felt that frustration of 'not understanding anymore'.

A 52-year-old manager with 25 years of experience came to me in tears: 'I don't understand anything anymore. I feel like I've become a permanent negotiator.' That day, I understood the problem wasn't young people or managers, but the complete absence of tools to translate between generations.

Focus

Give French managers back their confidence and natural authority, without sacrificing the engagement of new generations.

The BRIDGE Method

6 étapes pour construire un pont entre les générations

Caroline Delvaux's approach: a structured framework, not generic advice.

Développée après avoir accompagné 300+ managers français qui vivaient tous la même frustration : "J'ai l'impression de ne plus parler la même langue avec mes équipes". En analysant les réussites et échecs sur 5 ans, j'ai identifié que les managers qui s'en sortaient le mieux appliquaient instinctivement ces 6 étapes. J'ai formalisé cette approche et créé un assistant IA pour la rendre accessible à tous les managers français.

Coaching Approach

Caroline Delvaux works with you to achieve results.

CUSTOM Framework

Bridge-Building Method: Understand (Gen Z psychology and values), Adapt (communication without losing yourself), Connect (build trust across generations), Retain (keep your best young talent).

Question Style

I ask perspective-shifting questions: "What might they be experiencing?" "What do they value that you might be overlooking?" "How can you adapt your style without changing who you are?"

Common Questions

Can AI help with something as human as generational management?

Yes. Caroline combines research on generational psychology with practical management frameworks. She helps you understand the WHY behind Gen Z behaviors and gives specific scripts and strategies for common situations.

Do I have to change my entire management style?

No. Carolines approach is about bridging, not transforming. You learn to adapt specific communication and feedback styles while keeping your authentic leadership identity intact.

Is this just Gen Z stereotyping?

Caroline focuses on understanding, not stereotyping. While generational patterns exist, she helps you see each employee as an individual while being aware of broader generational context.

What specific situations can Caroline help with?

Feedback conversations, performance reviews, work-from-home discussions, career development talks, addressing perceived entitlement, building engagement, and reducing turnover.

Is this for managers of any generation?

Yes. Whether youre a Boomer, Gen X, or older Millennial managing younger team members, Caroline helps you bridge the gap. The principles work for any multigenerational team dynamic.
