About me
Intro
I helped Theodo grow from 20 to 100 people, the foundations of the model that later reached 700, then ran a business unit at Neoxia (Deloitte). Today I work with founders and executive teams on what breaks when a company scales: decision-making, management, learning. Executive advisory, coaching, lean management, knowledge and learning, scaling up. Author of Learning to Scale at Theodo Group. 10 years teaching at a French military Academy. I reveal your organisation's hidden knowledge.

We help CEOs adopt lean as a complete business strategy to build scalable and high performance companies. This strategy rests on a radical idea: success is no longer about executing a well-thought plan or implementing the latest tools. It is about finding out how to align: • what drives the success of every single customer • what specific skills must be developed by every single team member to quickly improve the performance of the company

A great number of social services appointments are missed by citizens. I worked with elected officials and government leaders, managers and civil servants to design an approach to understand & measure the issue and experiment solutions that managed to reduce the absenteeism rate from 25% to less than 5%. I then designed and managed the creation of a consortium between local and national administrations to build a digital product that became a digital public service called rdv-solidarites.fr

Notable accomplishments include the creation of Fast IT, the agile delivery team at French bank Société Générale (reducing the go live lead time from 6 months to 3 weeks) and the launch of 24 Sèvres, the e-commerce platform of LVMH
