Welcome to Yakamoz

Putting People at the Heart of Organizations

At Yakamoz, I support organizations, teams, and professionals in their growth, transitions, and challenges. I bring together three complementary areas of expertise: professional coaching, training, and teaching organizational behavior. My goal is to help create more meaning, coherence, and balance in the way we work together.

I work in English, French, and Turkish, and I am passionate about the human capacity to adapt and grow in any context.

Professional Coaching

I work with individuals and teams to clarify their positioning, strengthen confidence, and unlock their potential.
Typical focus areas include:

  • Leadership and managerial presence
  • Communication and collaboration
  • Stress management and work-life balance
  • Prioritization and decision-making

Each coaching journey is a structured, human-centered dialogue aimed at generating insights and sustainable change.

Training

I design and deliver practical, interactive training programs that combine reflection, hands-on exercises, and real-world applicability.
Topics include:

  • Interpersonal communication and emotional intelligence
  • Leadership and compassionate management
  • Team cohesion and collaboration
  • Stress management and well-being
  • Organizational culture and engagement

I also teach organizational behavior and research methods in business schools, in French and English, connecting theory, practice, and lived experience.

About Me

I’m Meriç Duranson, founder of Yakamoz, and a former executive in a major pharmaceutical company.
For 17 years, I worked in an international environment, at the crossroads of cultures, management styles, and diverse ways of collaboration — an experience that deepened my understanding of the human factor within organizations.
This journey naturally led me to specialize in supporting individuals and organizations through transition, with a focus on balancing performance and collective well-being.
