Bio
Sylvaine Thomas-Penette
Katerina & I worked together in CGG. She was in Moscow; I was in Paris. She was Country HR; I was Global L&D. Our common language: English speaking, interest to move out of our comfort zone and a strong believe that employees’ development is key for business grow, to face business challenges. From that statement, from our remote location, we shared a trustful and impactful relation to build yearly learning plans that was fitting her Geo’s business challenges, that allowed Moscow’s managers to reinforce their leadership role and that created a great and trustful interpersonal communication within employees. I would recommend Katerina to anyone looking for an involved, open-minded, and dedicated HR Manager. She knows how to make an impact that maters!

Ekaterina and I worked together in CGG when she was HR manager for the Russian operation, over a period of about 5 years. During that time, Ekaterina managed to work the fine line between employee and employer interests over periods of both growth and reduction. Her care and attention was appreciated by staff and management in both environments. She is trustworthy, respecting confidentiality of employees information as well as management decisions and processes. Ekaterina continually exhibited high ethical standards and integrity. I believe her strongest attribute is that she is extremely approachable. With this in mind I recommend Ekaterina as a Human Resource manager.
