About France

Director of Development and Partnerships with over 20 years of experience, I work with leaders and management teams to structure their growth, open doors, and transform ideas into concrete business opportunities.

My expertise lies in opening new markets, creating and managing strategic partnerships, structuring key account sales strategies, and aligning vision, messaging, and operational reality. I don't sell for the sake of selling: I build solid, readable, and sustainable developments.

I have worked in various environments (media, brands, impact companies, economic networks), which allows me to quickly understand stakeholder dynamics, political issues, and internal obstacles. I build trusting relationships with high-level decision-makers and secure long-term partnerships.

I provide support in both strategic (diagnostics, roadmaps, structuring) and operational (account opening, partnerships, negotiation, management) capacities. I pay particular attention to sales posture, storytelling, and the credibility of the message.

Types of missions I undertake:

Outsourced Development Director

Structuring Sales and Partnership Strategy

    December 2022 - Today (3 years and 6 months)
    "La Fresque du Climat" (The Climate Fresk) is a fun, participatory, and creative workshop on climate change. It is based on collective intelligence and is therefore extremely educational: it allows us to learn a lot in a very short time about the climate and the cause-and-effect links between the different components of climate change. The Climate Fresk is a 3-hour introduction, aimed at both novices and experts, on how the climate works and the consequences of its disruption. This workshop sheds light on the complexity of climate change, gives us keys to understanding, and provides an overall view of climate change. The objective of 'La Fresque du Climat' is to raise awareness among as many people as possible about climate change: we have set ourselves the goal of training 1 million participants on what climate change is!
