A former colleague's appreciation


I had the chance of working in Jean-François’ team, when he was in charge of Strategy and Development in Lafarge Gypsum Division. His deep understanding of business and practical knowledge on the methodology for strategic planning defy all comparison.

Above all, having just arrived as a new strategy manager, I could fully benefit from his keen interest in people development. He had the talent of assessing his team members’ needs in terms of personal development and providing the advice or solution which can answer to these needs in the most efficient way.

For instance, during a performance review after 6 months’ integration, I could have his valuable advices regarding how I could further exploit my potential. As a matter of fact, he made me get to know how I was thinking, which I was not at all aware of by then, and proposed a new way of thinking. Of course, all the following changes contributed to deliver better results.

His insight on me was all the more stunning as his origin is very distant from mine which is rooted in Korean culture. I am convinced that his broad exposure to international context had allowed him to obtain his unique open-mind attitude.
