About Laurent

Senior Consultant & Trainer, I have been supporting companies in their digital, organizational, and managerial transformation for 25 years. My career has led me to hold strategic positions within international groups (Continental, Siemens, Valeo, PSA, Areva), with recognized expertise in generative AI, Quality, Lean Management, and Change Management.

Today, I work with industrial companies, administrations, training organizations, and engineering schools to help them:

Integrate generative AI: training, strategic support, and implementation of tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Gamma to increase productivity, innovation, and operational efficiency.

Improve industrial performance: deployment of Lean, Kaizen, 5S, QRQC, SPC, FMEA approaches and action plan management to boost quality, processes, and financial results.

Manage crises and transformations: complex project management, mergers & acquisitions (M&A), restructuring, business continuity plans, and change support.

Train and coach teams: design and delivery of programs for executives, managers, and engineers (CNAM, Sciences-Po, ISEK, Cegos).

Key Expertise

Generative AI & Automation: strategy, training, integration, and usage optimization.

QSE & Certifications: ISO 9001, IATF 16949, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, Qualiopi.

Continuous Improvement: Lean, Kaizen, SPC, FMEA, APQP.

Management & Leadership: leading teams of up to 400 people.

Training & Pedagogical Innovation: creation of custom learning content and methodologies.

My approach is pragmatic, results-oriented, and adapted to the challenges of modern businesses: combining innovation, performance, and human development.
