Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

Companies generally don't need a new strategy. They need an organization capable of executing it.

This is precisely where I come in.

After more than 15 years developing and managing Retail networks at ba&sh, Le Slip Français, and Tara Jarmon, I now support leaders and retailers in their transformation, structuring, and scaling challenges.

I intervene when an organization needs to reach a new milestone: rapid growth, changes in the distribution model, omnichannel transformation, creation of new governance, or strengthening of operations.

My background allows me to bring a dual perspective: that of a leader who has managed networks across France and Europe, and that of a consultant capable of structuring transformation programs involving multiple departments.

I appreciate simple, clear organizations that produce results. The best roadmaps are those that are actually executed on the ground.

I primarily intervene in:

• Interim Management (Retail/Commercial Director, Operations Director)

• Organization and Governance Structuring

• Transformation Program Management

• Retail Performance and Operational Management

• Network Development and Transformation

• Omnichannel Retail
