The Malaise of Mediocrity

by Eric Deschamps | Blog, Passion, Personal Effectiveness, Success

You’ve likely heard of the expression dog days of summer, the most sultry time of the summer in July and August when it gets hot and steamy, and we blame it for our lethargy and inactivity. And it’s a synonym for those times in our lives–or our...

Testimonials

I am so very grateful to Rhapsody Strategies for the excellent training. Eric Deschamps is an exceptional public speaker who really taught us so much. Everything about the day was great – the space, the pace, the people in the class, the lunch and breaks. Really it was first rate. I am feeling confident in my ability to deliver a compelling presentation now!

Merging social media with coaching is a wise business decision on their part… The synergy between Eric and Trefor and the energy that they bring will no doubt lead to a big success at Rhapsody, and it will lead to the success of their clients. (See it on YouTube)
Denis SicotteFounding PartnerSicotte Guilbault LLP
Energy brings energy, and every time you sit down with somebody who has passion and you have passion as well, you can’t help but absorb that and the only result is a positive influence in your business. When you have people like them working with you, you can only benefit. You can only go forward. You can only expand and do better. (See in on YouTube)

I thought taking on a business coach would be a waste of time and money but once we brought on Eric as our business coach, our company has taken on a concrete direction of growth. Instead of being embarrassed of having a business coach, I am proud to say I have one. (See it on YouTube)

You took on the task of getting to know your audience prior to meeting them so the day would be relevant to each of us. Even after a full day of training, your enthusiasm and energy level remained high, which kept us inspired. I would definitely recommend your training and coaching to businesses, large and small, that want to improve their performance.

Eric is one of the most genuine presenters and coaches I have encountered. Nothing seems forced and he’s not a “rah-rah” guy. Instead, what shines through is that he’s very passionate about his craft. This was one of the most authentic training experiences I have ever had the pleasure of attending.
Daniel SnellKey Account ManagerSmart Car
Our experience with Eric is that he totally over delivers as a keynote speaker. We invited Eric speak to business owners for the Orleans Health & Wellness Expo. He remarkably engaged and energized the audience with his brilliance, humour and captivating talk. We were very impressed with Eric’s professionalism and integrity and we highly recommend him as a dynamic and top quality speaker within the business world.  –
