Governance
Since 1998, Norbert Dentressangle has been controlled by a Supervisory Board and an Executive Board.
The governance of the Norbert Dentressangle group reflects two of its key characteristics:
• a majority family shareholding with strong representation on the Supervisory Board presided over by Norbert Dentressangle,
• a tightly managed Executive Board, fully focused on operational management and the fulfilment of growth and profitability objectives.

Focusing on the personal dimension
Sitting on the supervisory board of Norbert Dentressangle gives me an opportunity to stay in contact with what was originally a familyowned company. My experience as president of a large multinational company prompts me to focus Norbert Dentressangle’s strategy for continued globalisation, in terms of costs, income and markets. Based on my own personal perspective, I believe that equal emphasis should also be given to people, customers and sustainable development, and not only the financial dimension.

Ensuring that values are maintained and shared
I represent the Dentressangle family, which is the Group’s majority shareholder, on the supervisory board. I make sure that the company adheres to, applies and shares its roots and founding entrepreneurial values, as part of a group that is becoming international. In the future, it is important for me that these values can be exported equally well to other continents.

A clear strategy and strong entrepreneurial values
I was happy to assume responsibilities as a member of the supervisory board, in order to support projects and Norbert Dentressangle’s long-term goals, because the Group provides a clear strategy, with a defined road map, and ultimately, because of its entrepreneurial spirit and values, which I also share. Knowing the company particularly well enables me to share my point of view with the various areas of expertise, teams and even the management.
My expertise in the field of financial and property investment also enables me to support strategic initiatives and contribute to arbitrages.

Reinforcing our position as a global leader within the sector
Norbert Dentressangle has demonstrated its ability to develop and, as a member of the supervisory board, I am delighted to contribute to the company’s continuing development. My experience as an international audit firm executive for 30 years enables me provide assistance with the problems associated with acquisitions, financial questions and even the international dimension. Based on its people management, key areas of expertise and proven experience of growth and financial solidity, Norbert Dentressangle has all the necessary assets to reinforce its position as a future world leader in the sector.

Striking a balance between trust and vigilance
As well as a spirit of enterprise, what I share with the Norbert Dentressangle group is a vision of the company, in which people assume central importance. This people-based approach is accompanied by a longterm vision, in which people grow with the company. I believe that I can stand back and advise the supervisory board, in a similar way to an insurance company. My perspective as a “risk manager” enables me to assess the company’s risks, in terms of acquisitions and professional diversification. My future vision of Norbert Dentressangle is based on a successful blend of trust and vigilance - the company knows where it is going and is sure of its founding values.

Globalisation is the way forward
In addition to assisting with the problems associated with acquisitions, I value having the opportunity to contribute to the company’s global strategy. I believe that every member of the supervisory board acts as a real consultant, based on his particular experience of the corporate world, in terms of informing our discussion when it comes to profitability and development issues. Globalisation is the way forward for Norbert Dentressangle. By expanding its presence across the globe and reinforcing its positions in Europe, Norbert Dentressangle will make its mark as a key world player.
