It has been two months without me publishing anything, but, having completed my Master of Business Administration from Presidio Graduate School with specializations in sustainable energy and finance, I am now for hire. Here is a brief recap of what I have been up to lately:
Personal
Presidio Graduate School acquires Pinchot University
It is with a certain excitement that I am announcing you that Pinchot University – where I am starting the second year of my MBA in Sustainable Business and Energy – has been acquired by Presidio Graduate School, San Francisco, CA.
Four reasons why I cycle to school
For the past few weeks I have been cycling to and from Pinchot University where I am studying for my MBA in Sustainable Business. I believe this was the right decision for many reasons.
Our Kickstarter is now funded !
Good news everyone ! Our Kickstarter campaign collected up to $36,753, overshooting by more than 20 percent our fundraising goals. As you can imagine, all of us are pretty grateful and excited. Be sure that I will keep you posted on the development of the company and its promising technology.
1800th article, a reflection
As I am writing my 1800th article in eight years I would like to take some time to reflect on our common climate / energy situation, Corporate (Social) Responsibility and my own life.
Now studying Sustainability in Seattle
Dear visitors, subscribers and friends. It is with distinct pleasure that I am announcing that as of today (and for the next two years) I’ll be studying for a Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) in Sustainable Business at Pinchot University, Seattle.
I am now working in the renewable energies sector
Dear all, it is with a distinct pleasure and pride that I am announcing you that after ten years of hard work, my efforts finally paid off and that I have realised one of my dreams : I am now working in the renewable energy industries.
I am indeed currently employed by Biotec, a bioenergy company whose main offices are near Cali, Colombia… Yes , you read that right : I am currently in the Colombian countryside to promote the company and increase its communications efforts.
This three-month consultancy mission – ending in mid-August – will be the occasion for me to redesign their website, improve their newsletter among other things.
Sustainability at work : repair, reduce and reuse
Making it do, making it last, mending it : this is something that our parents or grandparents were doing but that we don’t do it nowadays anymore. This is bad for our environment and our societies. Here is a reflection.
What do my wallet, my suitcase and my swimming goggles have in common ? They are all repaired items. Both suitcase and wallet were showing signs of age because of extensive use over the years.
Despite frantic protest from my parents stating quite rightly that I could afford new ones, I had them sewn by one of my dear aunts : Pascale is a real genius with either a needle or a sewing machine.
Thirty years and counting
A quick note to thank my family and all my friends for their kindness, patience and love as they have been my main source of motivation and energy for the past 30 years. Thirty years ? Yes, today is my birthday ! 🙂
Seeking new challenges
After a year of working as Quality and Communications Manager I am again out seeking new challenges as I was made redundant for economic reasons. (This company is depending from the European auto industry)
This one-year experience was for me the opportunity to work in both communications and quality certification ( ISO 9001:2008 ), two domains where I already had some strong experience.
So I am now seeking any mission in Marketing, Quality and Communications no only in France but also in Europe or all around the world.
A new job, a new life and new challenges
Dear visitors, readers and subscribers I would like to announce you that I am starting as of today a new life with a new job in a completely different kind of place. I have indeed left the bustling life of Paris for the calm of the countryside. I have been hired by a Belgian company … Read more
