About Christophe

I offer to manage your key projects, to lead your project managers to instill best practices and thus accelerate their achievements.
After 15 years with a Telecom operator in project management, including ten years in team leadership, I completed this journey by spending 7 years with a manufacturer of communication products. This dual culture of supplier / operator client allows me to understand the specific demands of operators or telecom distributors and also the complexity of implementation with a supplier.
Furthermore, my professional background has allowed me to navigate a strong cultural diversity and to manage or coach complex projects.
Today, my experience allows me to make your project teams more efficient and to accelerate your complex projects with high intensity in cultural diversity.
Project management using hybrid methods combining agile and traditional methods is a real benefit for securing your projects because it allows adaptation according to the environment of your organization or your project approach.
Do you still want to accelerate the completion of your key projects?

My keys to success:
▪ Project management with a multicultural dimension
▪ Building trusting relationships with B2B partners and clients
▪ Project management according to different approaches and methodologies: Agile and PMI
▪ Construction and maintenance of "Carrier" oriented test plans: protocol, functional, VOD OTT and IPTV tests, Content (audio and video quality) and troubleshooting
