TnP Transition & Performance

Outplacement · Newplacement · Geneva & Switzerland

Understand the market, rebuild options, then move.

TnP grew out of recruitment. Our outplacement model was designed to give people what is often missing after a departure: a practical view of the market, available consultants, a network that can be activated and the freedom to explore several forms of professional future.

In practice

What we work on together

Positioning, CV, LinkedIn profile, targeting, applications and interview preparation.
A practical reading of the Swiss market: recruiter expectations, search channels, target companies and sector realities.
Network development and introductions when relevant, particularly across French-speaking Switzerland.
Serious exploration of consulting, freelancing or entrepreneurship when that path looks credible.

Why TnP built its own model

An outplacement programme designed by a former recruiter.

Before founding TnP in 2013, Guillaume Stollsteiner spent close to ten years in recruitment. One issue kept coming back: people in transition could receive good CV advice while still having little visibility into what actually happens on the other side of the table — how recruiters search, screen, interpret a career story and decide whom to call.

Our programmes therefore start with the person, but are constantly tested against the market. Reflection matters; understanding recruitment mechanics, activating a network and testing positioning matter just as much.

The world of work has changed

A return to activity no longer means only finding another salaried role.

After redundancy, more executives consider consulting, freelancing, independent work or entrepreneurship rather than simply recreating the role they have just left. In our programmes, close to 20% of people in our programmes now raise this question, compared with roughly 9–12% eight years ago.

TnP integrated this shift early into its programmes. The objective is not to turn everyone into an entrepreneur, but to test the option with the same seriousness as a job search — and to return to a salaried path when the project is not sufficiently convincing.

Beyond the sessions

A programme is more than the scheduled meetings with a consultant.

TnP participant portal

A personal space for next steps, workshops, consultant recommendations and useful programme information.

Lucidity in Motion

A career reflection and action tool developed by TnP, used between sessions when it adds value to the programme.

Hotline & availability

An important interview, a decision, a negotiation or a doubt: the consultant can be contacted between scheduled sessions.

Targeted workshops

Networking, LinkedIn, pitching, Swiss pension topics, stress, non-verbal communication, interviews or entrepreneurship depending on needs.

A framework that follows the reality of the search

  • Individual support over several weeks or months depending on context and seniority.
  • A frequent rhythm is one individual session per week, in person or remotely.
  • Possible workshops include LinkedIn, networking, pitching, personal branding, stress management, pension topics and interviews.
  • The rhythm evolves with the search: intensive at first, then adjusted around interviews, decisions and onboarding.

How the programme moves forward

The stages provide a framework without forcing every participant into the same sequence.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between outplacement and newplacement?

The label matters less than the intent: helping the person build a credible next activity. That may be a new role, but it can also be consulting, independent work or entrepreneurship.

Is the programme only for senior executives?

No. Content, pace and consultant involvement are adjusted to the profile, seniority, target market and departure context.

Can someone begin with a job search and then explore entrepreneurship?

Yes. Options can evolve during the programme. We prefer testing credible paths rather than deciding the destination in the first session.
