Cap Gemini

“My right hand man? No, the word is not too strong. Jean-Marc Fernandes quickly became my right hand man during his graduation project in 2005. At the time I was project manager at Cap Gemini, and he assisted me in all my daily activities, including working on consulting projects with me, selling consulting services, setting up supervision systems, meetings, presentations to the general management, organizing and structuring all the work.

He really concentrated his efforts on a major project we were doing for a banking group, which involved outsourcing their entire technical infrastructure. This assignment involved extremely specialized areas and we had to get help from experts. Above all, it affected the jobs of some 100 people, and Jean-Marc understood this highly political environment right away. I really appreciated his diversity and his ability to operate on a number of different levels. He did not provide mechanical responses, but handled all the viewpoints with a great maturity. He did not just use a Cartesian approach!

At the end of his internship, the project was well on its way to completion. The customer was extremely satisfied with the end result.”
