France
As a seasoned and awarded strategist, I've provided personalized guidance to more than a thousand entrepreneurs, from ambitious start-ups to established giants, ensuring both local and global organizations navigate the market with confidence. I'm also a devoted and internationally certified Data Protection Officer (DPO), Data Protection Advisor (DPA) and Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), specializing in crafting and implementing robust privacy frameworks that meet the rigorous demands of GDPR and ISO 27701 standards. For more information about my experience in these two areas, please visit the 'Experience' section below. I myself became an entrepreneur at a very early stage in my career. My corporate bosses had zero regard for my hard work and dedication and they did not see me as a 'company man' because I had my own opinion so they unintentionally pushed me in a dreadful and at the time very painful way towards entrepreneurship, but what a blessing in retrospect. Being an entrepreneur thought me to use my creativity to the fullest, it brought me freedom and a way to give myself a better and happier life. Despite an absolute disbelief of my school'teachers' that I would make something of my life and the above regrettable experience as a salaried employee with that particular employer, I became a decorated entrepreneur in two different countries, founded multiple award winning businesses and I continued to build my entrepreneurial career in numerous different sectors as a freelance consultant. Moral of the story is: Never let yourself be told that you are not good enough. Those who try to tell you that, are soured and jealous of your talent. Work hard, always have fun in what you do and rely on yourself and those who have your best interests at heart.
