Bio
Almudena VICIOLA CORCOSTEGUI
Basile and I met back in 2016 when I started my new role as Managing Consultant for RNC UK. We instantly connected and I must say it was a pleasure to have such a great professional in the team. Not only he systematically over-delivered and carried out a fantastic job, but he also provided an excellent customer experience across several countries. Definitively a robust asset for any organisation

Guillaume de Ponnat
I had the pleasure of working with Basile. He contributed to an operational coaching project for proximity managers in the manufacturing workshops at the Renault Tangier plant. He knew how to adapt to this specific mode of intervention and to the local culture in order to transmit his experience. He succeeded in helping managers to increase their autonomy and the S/Q/C/T performance of their production units.
