Building Teams that Make Great Things Happen with Leadership Expert, Yves Doucet

In this episode, Roxanne Derhodge chats with Yves Doucet about his journey to authentic leadership and team dynamics. They discuss Doucet's shift to vulnerability, the challenges of timesheet management, and the expectations of Gen Z and Millennial employees. The conversation also covers servant leadership, conscious leadership, creating open-hearted spaces, and Doucet's personal experiences with yoga and introspection.

Quote: "How do you get people to be engaged and get people to change? It starts by being authentic!" Yves Doucet

Great teams don’t just happen, they need to be cultivated, nurtured and cared for. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome CEO, Yves Doucet who will share his inspiration and ideas for building teams that are highly functional, greatly motivated and enjoy the atmosphere and culture that's been created by using some basic principles of energy and quantum physics.

By official title, Yves is the CEO and co-founder of a thriving timesheet company called Dovico, but he would preferably be named a “Culture Coach.” As Dovico’s “Culture Coach,” Yves helps his team find their passion and matches it with business. He genuinely believes that if the team is working aligned with their values, there is no obstacle to ingenuity and growth -both personally and professionally.

Fast forward 26 years later, Dovico has world-class customers from all over the world! They have a flexible work environment and are committed to work-life balance. Working with a fun and passionate team every day, driving results, and creating meaningful work experiences. Our culture centers around values of Leadership, Getting Customers Back to Work, Courage and Respect.
