On this blog, I share useful reflections about innovation, sustainability and managing high-performance teams.
I try to make it thought-provoking and practical.
These reflections are based on real-life examples. They’re inspired from spending nearly 10 years growing GoudronBlanc (an e-commerce fashion business) and running innovation projects with Fortune 500 companies (think: Coca-Cola, Mars, Google, Meta…).
I also share exclusive content in Progress, my newsletter.
Make sure you get this monthly update. (It’s sharp.)
