About Nicolas

As an experienced CIO, I offer part-time and transitional CIO services to help organizations address their information system challenges. With nearly 30 years of experience in the military in IT and cybersecurity, I have held various CIO, management, and project manager positions in France and in operations.

My career has allowed me to develop solid expertise in strategy and management, which I then applied to a consulting firm for 2 years. Convinced that the major challenge for organizations lies in management, I place human management and leadership at the heart of my approach. I offer CIO and consulting services that combine values, experience, and proven military tools, such as management, methods, crisis management, operational planning and execution, adaptation, and mission focus.

Since October 2021, I have been assisting organizations with their strategy, transformation, management, master plan, or digital risk management. I also offer AMOA (IT project management assistance) services to help organizations define, manage, and implement their IT projects.

  • Leadership, Strategy, Governance, Management, Organization
  • AMOA, IT & multidisciplinary project management
  • Comprehensive and varied military experience (operations, headquarters, command, IT & Cyber projects, restructurings, joint forces, Forces)
  • Management responsibilities (30 to 1000 people)
