A strategic diagnostic to turn reflection into a concrete roadmap
A strategic diagnostic enabled a recruitment firm specializing in sustainable development to identify six ways to implement AI and organize them into a three-phase roadmap.
Atout Recrutement is one of the only recruitment firms specializing in the environment and sustainable development in Quebec. Led by Robert Dubé, President, CEO and co-founder, it offers executive search, professional recruitment, temporary placement, international recruitment and HR support.
Robert Dubé wanted to know where AI could truly help Atout Recrutement, without upsetting the team's culture or compromising the judgment of its recruiters. He was looking for an outside perspective to tell promising projects from false good ideas, while respecting the confidentiality requirements of his sector.
Soaz Media carried out a structured strategic diagnostic: a kickoff meeting, working sessions with management, a written questionnaire and technical validation with an implementation partner. It identified six ways to implement AI (candidate sourcing, prequalification, business development, protection of personal information), each with a feasibility analysis and a cost estimate. They were grouped into a progressive three-phase roadmap.
The main benefit is for decision-making:
“Artificial intelligence will allow Atout Recrutement's recruiters to spend more time on what already makes them strong: judgment, human relationships and advice.”

Two sessions to move from instinctive use of ChatGPT to a structured practice
Two training sessions, built around real files, helped the executive director of a cultural organization move from instinctive use of ChatGPT to a structured and autonomous practice.
The Studio de musique ancienne de Montréal (SMAM) is a vocal and instrumental ensemble founded in 1974, devoted to the Renaissance and the Baroque. Under the leadership of Executive Director Jonathan Nemtanu, it handles artistic programming, fundraising, communications, philanthropy and the management of a small team all at once. As in many cultural organizations, the executive director carries most of the decisions alone.
Jonathan Nemtanu was already using ChatGPT, but intuitively. He wanted an AI that knows the SMAM's context, a reliable method for phrasing his requests, support to test his decisions and clear guidelines on what can be entrusted to it, in an organization that holds information about its subscribers, donors and staff.
Soaz Media designed and delivered two virtual training sessions, built from Jonathan's real files. The first laid the foundations: custom instructions, a method for phrasing requests, two tools to challenge a decision (the strategic devil's advocate and the pre-mortem), then ethics and the protection of sensitive information. The second structured the workspace: Projects and specialized assistants for each type of file. Each concept was applied live to a real case.
At the end of the two sessions, the benefit is measured first in capacity:
“Artificial intelligence does not replace the judgment of an executive director. It gives back time to exercise it, and the means to sharpen it.”
Key message of the training, Soaz Media
“Thanks to Diane, the way I use ChatGPT has already changed! Her approach is clear, concrete and very well adapted to my reality. I would recommend her without hesitation to nonprofit managers and small teams who want to use AI in a useful, structured and intelligent way.”

AI as a strategic thinking partner at Ellio
Four custom AI assistants, grounded in the Regenesis method, help a B Corp certified consulting agency deepen its strategic thinking and save time.
Ellio is a Quebec consulting agency, B Corp certified since 2015, specializing in sustainable development and the positive transformation of organizations. Since winter 2026, it has worked with the Regenesis method, which aims to actively regenerate the systems in which an organization operates, rather than only reducing its negative impacts.
Ellio wanted the Regenesis method to quickly permeate all of its work. The issue was not skill, since the team is seasoned, but fluidity: integrating an emerging approach into daily practice without weighing down processes.
Soaz Media designed Willie: four custom AI assistants, one for each mode of intervention (strategic planning, workshops, events, service offers). Each assistant is grounded in the Regenesis method and takes the stance of a senior consultant: it clarifies, analyzes, challenges and proposes, without ever replacing the team's judgment. The design was done in co-creation with the CEO, Esther Dormagen.
From the first weeks of use, Esther Dormagen identified seven concrete benefits:
Notable fact: these benefits appeared while Esther still considered herself to be in the learning phase with the tool.
“Willie structures, lets me go further and puts things into words. It still stimulates reflection.”

“Diane took the time to understand my practice in depth, to question strategic choices, and to make sure the tools delivered truly raise the quality of my work. I have made real time savings in my analysis and design work, and I now have tools that fit naturally into my way of working and enhance it.”
