About Sophie

I support leaders and their teams through their key moments: clarifying a strategy, structuring a roadmap, engaging teams, and driving decisions forward.

After 12 years in strategy — including 5 years in consulting at Bain & Company and 7 years in strategy leadership in renewable energy — followed by 7 years in HR leadership in an international group, I developed a conviction: a strategy is only as good as the leadership that carries it.

Today, I act as a strategic partner to senior management to:

clarify and prioritize their strategic challenges
structure and manage transformation plans
make key decisions (investments, organization, priorities)
align and engage leadership teams
individually support leaders in their posture and decision-making
My approach combines strategic rigor with human finesse, to advance both decisions… and team dynamics.
