VPFreelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Vincent
I support organizations in their **complex transformation programs**, both in functional areas (e.g., Finance and Risk reporting with the RADAR Program for BNP Paribas) and technical areas (e.g., "cloud" and agile transformation at Beneva).
I am known for my **ability to manage large teams and budgets**, comfortable in both traditional and agile environments: I have also supported organizations in their organizational transformation by implementing SAFe delivery trains.
My Gallup strengths — restorative, individualization, relationship-building, organizer, and deliberative — have been instrumental in my professional success and are also reflected in my personal life: always enthusiastic in my sports practice, I have found that these strengths translate well into my ability to set and achieve ambitious goals. This discipline and focus apply to my professional challenges, particularly in complex international contexts.
