HUMENIA

What HUMENIA does

HUMENIA is a Paris-based boutique consulting firm founded in 2021 by Christine Petit, focused on the human, cultural, and managerial dimensions of organizational transformation. The firm serves enterprise and mid-market clients undergoing significant change events — strategic repositioning, mergers and acquisitions, reorganizations, and business model shifts — and delivers four integrated service lines: strategic consulting (conseil), executive and team coaching, customized training programs, and participatory facilitation. Interventions operate at three levels — organization, team, and individual — and follow a structured five-step methodology (encounter/framing, diagnosis, strategy sharing, deployment, evaluation). The firm does not develop proprietary technology; its value is delivered through consultant expertise and bespoke engagement design.

HUMENIA generates revenue through professional service fees on project-based or retainer engagements, with each intervention scoped and quoted individually; pricing is not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales driven primarily by the founder's personal network built over 25 years at PwC Consulting, IBM France, Transformance, IDRH, and Huitième Continent, supplemented by a LinkedIn presence and the humenia.fr corporate website. Named clients include FONCIA, PwC, PARIS HABITAT, LEARN ASSEMBLY, EIFFAGE CONSTRUCTION, CARGILL, AG2R LA MONDIALE, FABERNOVEL, and ESSET, spanning real estate, social housing, construction, agribusiness, social protection, professional services, and education. The company operates as a founder-owned SAS with €10,000 of share capital, registered at 24 rue Poncelet, 75017 Paris, with no external investment and a headcount of 1–10.
