Launch of the Cercle Accompagnateurs: joining forces to transform impact coaching

At Mouvement Impact France, we are convinced that support plays a key role in the success of impact businesses. Incubators, gas pedals, entrepreneurial networks, consultants and specialized structures are at the forefront of helping managers transform their business models and integrate social and ecological issues into their strategies.

That's why Impact France is launching the Cercle Accompagnateurs, a space dedicated to those who accompany the transition, to federate, contribute and progress together.

Why set up a Cercle Accompagnateurs?

The support ecosystem is rich, diverse and constantly evolving. Yet it still lacks a collective place for :

• Contribute to advocacy: put the expertise of our support staff at the service of other circles (Start-ups, Energy, Finance, etc.) in order to enlighten decision-makers and strengthen the transition of companies.
  
• Unite support players through a national and regional network, events and forums, encouraging peer-to-peer exchange and the pooling of practices.
  
• Progress through shared tools, training and resources that keep us at the cutting edge of impact-based support methods.

A long-standing commitment to support companions

The Cercle is a continuation of the initiatives already undertaken by Impact France for and with support structures:

• Mapping: In 2024, we published the Mapping of impact coaches and the mapping des cabinets de conseil de la transitionmaking visible over 700 structures in France and highlighting their role in the ecosystem.
  
  
• A learning community: theImpact Lab Academy, the first community of impact coaches, which has already brought together around a hundred organizations around training courses, tools, co-development workshops and exchanges of practices.
  
  
• Contributing to national lobbying: our support staff took part in our lobbying work, notably on the CSRD (Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive), contributing their expertise to adapt the European directive to the operational realities of companies, while maintaining its ambitions.

The legitimacy we have built up over the years has enabled us to take a new step forward with the launch of the Cercle Accompagnateurs, which already boasts over 400 committed support structures.

Privileged access to Impact France's flagship tools

To take things a step further, members of the Cercle Accompagnateurs benefit from easier access to two unique systems:

• Impact Score Dashboard The Impact Score Dashboard: a simple, effective platform for measuring and monitoring the impact of your ecosystem, highlighting progress made and identifying levers for transformation.
  
  
• Impact Lab Academy The Impact Lab Academy: the first learning community dedicated to mentors, offering a collective pathway, co-development workshops and concrete resources to strengthen practices and draw inspiration from peers.
