Short Bio

What passioned me is to energizing people & unleashing their SuperPowers, so that we can all be heroes of our own lives. 🌟

As a bonsaïka, I am one of those patient and determined person who knows how to work on the long term for a common vision.

My magic? I use unexpected methods to bypass details and grasp the global picture. And help teams stick to it! With energy, I like to creating team cohesion – the cement of good project management – while unleashing the best from each person in order to achieve project goals.

📌 If I have to describe myself in few words

  • energy giver, with an obsession for making things real and concrete
  • I was once told I was embodying the role of “guardian of Excellence and Discipline”
  • I like to work in partnership, with mutual help and respect
  • I am engaged and an highly enthusiast in everything I do, with strong determination
  • I am autonomous in my work, and like to keep my autonomy to be the best version of myself

RICH AND SOLID EXPERIENCE

If my scientific academic background underlines my discipline and continuous search for excellence, it is my professional experience that most highlights this character trait. For each company that called on me from 1998 to 2015, I managed various projects as a “good corporate soldier”, strengthening my management skills and expertise year after year.

I worked at the heart of complex and stressful situations leading to major transformations and innovation research. A true 360 experience, solid and multidisciplinary, which highlights my ability to be at ease at the heart of change and to embark people with my sparkling energy to create cohesion.
