After completing a postgraduate degree (DESS) in Marketing and Strategy, Régis Rossi spent 15 years working with major corporate groups on management and communication challenges. In parallel, he practiced illusion in all its forms and now leverages this art to address key business challenges.
Language spoken by the speaker:
- French
Régis Rossi delivers keynote conferences across French-speaking Switzerland (Geneva, Lausanne, Vaud, Neuchâtel…).
A Unique Career Path
In 2011, he established a groundbreaking concept designed to offer a fresh perspective on managerial art and interpersonal communication through the mechanisms of illusion.
While cognitive sciences demonstrate that the unexpected and the uncanny stimulate our capacity to understand, memorize, and learn, this management expert developed an innovative and impactful approach utilizing illusionist techniques to raise awareness on various key themes, including leadership and corporate workplace dynamics.
Many believe an illusionist's strength lies solely in technical skill (manipulation, agility, dexterity), but although essential, this is merely the tip of the iceberg. An illusionist's true power relies not on technical know-how, but rather on emotional intelligence and the ability to channel it into meaningful connections with their audience. This reality applies equally to the corporate world.

- Régis Rossi works primarily with major French and international corporations (M6, Vinci, EDF, Décathlon, Eiffage, Michelin, Total…) and addresses 3 key audiences: senior executives and managers, sales forces, and specialized professionals (physicians, attorneys, chartered accountants, researchers…).

- Régis Rossi holds the title of APM expert (Association pour le Progrès du Management).
