Biography
Speaker, author and founder of 47ème Rue, Grégoire Jeanmonod draws on the lives of great artists to shed new light on the challenges businesses face: creativity, transformation, collaboration, engagement, customer relationships and artificial intelligence.
From art history to journalism
After studying literature and art history, Grégoire Jeanmonod became a journalist. For nearly fifteen years, he divided his time between arts publications, including Arts Magazine and Géo, and preparing television programs such as Vivement dimanche on France 2. This dual experience taught him to combine cultural depth, storytelling and the ability to make complex ideas accessible.
Bringing art and business into conversation
In 2013, he developed 47ème Rue around a conviction: great artists had already explored many of the questions organizations face today. How do we create when the rules change? How do we stand out? How do we work with different personalities? How do we persuade others, take risks, stay engaged or turn a constraint into an opportunity?
Picasso, Monet, Warhol, Frida Kahlo, Manet, Banksy and Brancusi become the protagonists of stories that offer a fresh perspective on the way we work.
An established stage presence
Grégoire Jeanmonod has delivered several hundred talks for companies and institutions. His presentations are illustrated, engaging, participatory and accessible even to people who feel they know nothing about art. Humor, emotion, surprise and anecdotes serve a clear purpose: making art a tool for reflection that can be applied directly to professional life.
Author and storyteller
Grégoire Jeanmonod is also an author. His books extend his approach: understanding how works of art, artists and their journeys can inform the way we work, create and collaborate.
When artists become the best coaches in the professional world.
