Head of Group Communications // Directrice Communication Groupe
About

With my 15 years experience as a communications person in multinational companies in France and abroad (USA, Sweden), I have developed strong strategic thinking in corporate and products communications. I have implemented 360 coms plans to develop and protect the brand/corporate's reputation of the companies I've worked for. As a digital native I have defined media and social media strategic initiatives, ensured effective digital presence and developed relationships with key opinion leaders. With my capacity of establishing good relationships and my deep understanding of the media landscape: - I have acted as a spokesperson for the companies I worked for, - I have provided strategic guidance for C-level leaders and experts, - I have managed corporate coms crises in collaboration with relevant stakeholders, - and I have contributed to companies' strategic plans. As an energetic person who pays attentions to detail, I am also innovative and able to make sound decisions quickly and efficiently.
