Speaker of the day: Taïg Khris — Well-being at work

Mïg Khris is an elite athlete and entrepreneur born in 1975 in Algiers. From an itinerant family, with an Algerian father and a Greek mother, his parents encouraged him to pursue his dreams. At a very young age, he discovered a gift for roller skating. However, it was to become a professional tennis player that he trained hard, until he discovered the adrenaline released by the extreme practice of roller skating.

During his athletic career, Taïg Khris competed in 115 professional competitions. His 109 podium finishes (including 75 victories) make him the most decorated athlete in the history of extreme sports. He was also the first to successfully perform a double backflip in competition, and holds the world record for the highest roller jump into the void.

Taïg Khris is a jack-of-all-trades and excels in everything he undertakes because he puts in the effort. In 2001, he created the company "Taïg Khris Events", which offered shows and introductions to board sports before launching, in 2006, into the creation of stationery lines for children. He acquired the necessary skills on the job and eventually secured contracts with major retailers. Taïg Khris is currently working on an innovative telephony project: "OnOff Telecom".Speaker's spoken language
