“Advancy: business spirit intact after 15 years of success”
I joined Advancy in early 2000 after starting my career in a major American consulting firm. The years that have gone by have confirmed the relevance of our model, where a fresh vision is balanced with a pragmatic in-the-field approach: Advancy’s spectacular growth is the direct consequence of the superior results obtained by our clients.
On a personal note, the pleasure of being part of the Advancy team is now even more rewarding as we face new challenges stemming from the changes taking place in our European economies: consulting on customer operations worldwide, facing new business transformations… and above all training new consultants who join the team and sharing with them the Advancy spirit. Each and every day I am impressed by the results our teams deliver to clients and by the company spirit they possess.
My role at Advancy today consists of managing projects in industry, which is a sector we have been developing for 10 years. I also train new consultants in our approach to consultancy and our methods (described elsewhere in this site).
