It only takes one meeting - Patrick Buchard | Flammarion

"Il suffit d'une rencontre" by Patrick Buchard is a powerful and inspiring story, published by Flammarion. A former alcoholic saved by a former drinker, Patrick Buchard decided to dedicate his life to helping those struggling with alcoholism. At the age of thirty, he resumed higher education and, drawing from his personal experience, founded in 1989 the first specialized consultancy for alcohol-related issues in the workplace.

His innovative approach, ambulatory detoxification in the workplace, has revolutionized the treatment of alcoholism in the professional environment. Patrick Buchard's mission is to help alcohol-dependent employees break free from isolation and addiction by actively reintegrating them into their work environment. Using simple and direct language, he shares stories of recovery, starting with his own, and then those of the men and women he has assisted.

This book is a poignant testimonial filled with optimism and kindness, aiming to change perceptions and stereotypes about alcoholism. "Il suffit d'une rencontre" is a tribute to human resilience and the capacity for personal transformation.
