Back to original languageAbout Cedric
I have been building products for 10 years now. From sports applications in a startup environment, building a product portfolio in the healthcare industry, launching my own SaaS to building an e-commerce from scratch with a revenue of 1 billion, I have seen many different product approaches.
Growing up and living in about ten countries has taught me this about my skills:
- I have a lot of instinct but I rely on data: I base my decisions on facts and observations
- I am passionate and determined
- I am a problem solver, and I like to lead multicultural teams to give their best
- I speak tech and exec
- I believe in collective intelligence: two brains are always better than one
- I make sure that the people I work with are engaged
- I am calm and focused in times of crisis
