En résumé

Consultant en stratégies d’entreprises, je possède une vaste expérience de consultant en management et de cadre supérieur en entreprise. Après près de 35 ans d’expérience en direction financière et en contrôle de gestion en France et à l’international, j'ai décidé de proposer mes compétences aux dirigeants de TPE/PME en vue de les accompagner pour développer leur entreprise ou de les aider à construire leur projet de création ou de réorganisation. Une force tranquille et réfléchie, un homme d’expérience à la fois ouvert sur le vaste monde et francophone, qui allie des capacités de gestionnaire à une solide culture.
