As AI invades professional practices, M proposes another path: fostering a dialogue between human narrative and cognitive intelligence to prevent the loss of critical organizational knowledge.

Created within ACT4 TALENTS, a mission-driven company, its “Talents Transfer Lab” introduces the M methodology – a breakthrough innovation in knowledge transmission.

·       Upstream innovation: professional maieutics, inspired by the Socratic dialogue, reveals invisible knowledge: tacit experience, decisions, intuitions, and practical know‑how that do not appear in any procedure.

·       Downstream innovation: a cognitive AI explores, connects, and structures these narratives to generate knowledge maps and living learning resources that ensure operational continuity and collective memory.

M stands at the intersection of two forms of intelligence — human and algorithmic.
It humanizes technology and enhances organizational awareness, turning each departure (retirement, mobility, turnover) into an opportunity for renewed learning.

“Our M program builds on five years of research at the crossroads of learning sciences, professional maieutics, and cognitive artificial intelligence.
We investigate how an organization can learn from itself: by transforming experts’ tacit memory into active, connected, and transferable knowledge.
The challenge is not only technological but cognitive: designing systems that listen before they compute, revealing the invisible dimension of collective intelligence.”
— Séverine Besson, founder and researcher, ACT4 TALENTS

Presented at Tech Show Paris (November 5‑6, 2025, Paris Expo Porte de Versailles), M will demonstrate how the alliance between maieutic dialogue and cognitive AI gives organizations the ability to learn from themselves — preserving and transmitting the memory of their unique expertise.
