Laustriat a construit sa sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 sur un sujet que beaucoup d\u2019organisations d\u00e9couvrent trop tard : ce qui dispara\u00eet quand les gens partent. Dipl\u00f4m\u00e9 en conception de produit industriel, il bifurque vers le digital fin 1996, il couvre les transformations marques, RH, la fid\u00e9lisation, la marque employeur. Sur le terrain, il rep\u00e8re un angle mort r\u00e9current : l\u2019entreprise investit dans le recrutement, la formation, les process\u2026 puis laisse filer le lien au moment du d\u00e9part, avec une perte de savoir et d\u2019influence qui se paie en silence. Il se sp\u00e9cialise alors sur les communaut\u00e9s d\u2019alumni, le mentorat, l\u2019entraide interg\u00e9n\u00e9rationnelle et la transmission d\u2019expertise. Il passe du \u201cconstat\u201d aux m\u00e9thodes : animation, gouvernance, segmentation, rituels, mesure d\u2019engagement, articulation avec la RSE et l\u2019employabilit\u00e9. Il interviewe DRH, responsables formation, directions d\u2019\u00e9coles, associations et fondations, avec une obsession : transformer un r\u00e9seau dormant en m\u00e9canisme utile (cooptation, mentorat, job board, entraide, \u00e9v\u00e9nements, contenus). Son style : direct, orient\u00e9 action, sans folklore.

Laustriat a construit sa sp\u00e9cialit\u00e9 sur un sujet que beaucoup d\u2019organisations d\u00e9couvrent trop tard : ce qui dispara\u00eet quand les gens partent. Dipl\u00f4m\u00e9 en conception de produit industriel, il bifurque vers le digital fin 1996, il couvre les transformations marques, RH, la fid\u00e9lisation, la marque employeur. Sur le terrain, il rep\u00e8re un angle mort r\u00e9current : l\u2019entreprise investit dans le recrutement, la formation, les process\u2026 puis laisse filer le lien au moment du d\u00e9part, avec une perte de savoir et d\u2019influence qui se paie en silence. Il se sp\u00e9cialise alors sur les communaut\u00e9s d\u2019alumni, le mentorat, l\u2019entraide interg\u00e9n\u00e9rationnelle et la transmission d\u2019expertise. Il passe du \u201cconstat\u201d aux m\u00e9thodes : animation, gouvernance, segmentation, rituels, mesure d\u2019engagement, articulation avec la RSE et l\u2019employabilit\u00e9. Il interviewe DRH, responsables formation, directions d\u2019\u00e9coles, associations et fondations, avec une obsession : transformer un r\u00e9seau dormant en m\u00e9canisme utile (cooptation, mentorat, job board, entraide, \u00e9v\u00e9nements, contenus).
