Bio
Marc CARRETTE
I have had the opportunity to work with Solenn on several engagements. She was our facing manager for large deals signed with Actelion. She was always acting in a pragmatic way and was hard on targets and results. We have always able to discuss and handle complex situations together. I was always surprise to see how deeply she was capable to challenge us on complex and critical details especially in the contract set up. She is definitively a good IT Professional and an extremely good engagement manager. I would work again with her anytime.

Looking for a project management assistant I hired some 10 years ago Solenn. … and we never had a PM assistant, but a successful young Project manager ! Always thinking that it is better to have an educated IT specialist for managing IT projects, I must say that I was wrong (at least in her case) and in some project meetings I had the impression that she was the IT expert. After several successful projects, Solenn was able to take the lead of our PM team, managing the group, maintaining our newly created PM methodology and still managing important projects. Solenn is delivery focused, has a strong persuasion talent with analytic and synthetic skills, all this in a charming, non autocratic but strong way. I can only recommend Solenn and she will be a strong asset for any organisation.
