Bio
Joe Graziano
I had the opportunity to work with Laurent over many years and in different roles and with regional and global responsibilities. My experiences were always positive and I considered Laurent to be a trusted business partner with a cooperative and supportive approach to winning business and solving problems. Laurent is a sound critical thinker with very good analytical skills and an ability to "tell truth to power" in a constructive way. In my view he works well in and with a team as a leader or contributor. I would be pleased to have Laurent in or on my team should that opportunity to present itself again.

I have known Laurent since 2003 when he was part of Product sales team, in Switchgear business, in AREVA T&D. He is a goal oriented sales leader who is sharply focussed on winning deals to grow the business. He is a very good team player and coaches his team members across the globe in ensuring positioning the company in the best possible way in front of the customers. In addition to his strong positive attitude and technology background he is also well skilled in analysing market situations and helping company’s senior executives to make the right strategic decisions. Over the years Laurent has matured to be a strong sales leader, particularly in companies that have multiple product lines and operate in global markets. He is very well versed with Matrix business (reporting) environment and have gone through multiple merger and acquisitions which could be immensely helpful in today’s complex business environment.
