Maxime Légal works with organizations facing complex change situations, where strategy, operations and people need to move together. His role sits at the intersection of project management, facilitation and change execution: helping leaders turn ambitious transformation intentions into concrete, shared and workable realities. With an engineering background in software and IT, Maxime has built a hybrid profile combining analytical thinking with strong collaborative and facilitation skills. Over the years, he has developed a practical approach to change: understanding how a system works in practice, identifying where it gets stuck, and designing collective moments that help teams align, decide and move forward.
He has several years of experience designing and delivering large-scale collaborative workshops and transformation initiatives for complex organizations, ranging from large corporate groups to fast-growing structures. His work has covered topics such as organizational transformation, new ways of working, governance, strategy deployment, data and digital transformation, and environmental and social challenges. He regularly works with diverse stakeholders, from executives to operational teams, in both in-person and remote settings.
Beyond facilitation, Maxime is deeply involved in the operational side of transformation. He leads projects end-to-end: structuring the approach, coordinating stakeholders, managing timelines and deliverables, and ensuring that ideas turn into action. He also contributes internally to building stronger organizations by setting up processes, routines, tools and shared ways of working.
Today at Openfield, Maxime delivers systemic transformation projects for ambitious leaders, combining clear project execution with collaborative design. He is particularly interested in transformations linked to sustainability, climate and long-term impact, and in creating practical conditions for teams to engage with change rather than resist it.
