Jean-Marie
Human Resources Director - France - iCEO #13276

Experience

After a 8 years pre-MBA software engineering career followed by 8 years of successful international consulting experience, which allowed me to lead top notch strategy, change management and organizational projects for major British, French, US and Russian companies, I am currently Global Director of Professional Development at Bain and Company.

Major Achievements

As Global Director of Professional Development, I have the opportunity to impact significantly the development and retention of our 3,000 employees across our 25 offices spread on all continents. Leading change in such a decentralized organization requires business judgment, tenacity and sensitivity to local issues. My key achievements over the past three years were: (1) Complete overhaul of our consulting staff performance evaluation policies and processes, which, relying on a robust framework and innovative global IT tool, increased tenfold the consistency, quality and timeliness of performance appraisals across the world; (2) Implementation of a very successful inter-office transfer program for our best performers; (3) Redesign of our global employee satisfaction survey, linking it to Bain's general management dashboards; (4) Complete redesign of our global staffing policies and processes (in progress).
