Coach

Julie is an Executive Coach with the Fast Forward Group. She relies on her in-depth understanding of organizations and leadership development gained through 25 years in strategic Human Resources, coaching, and advising.

She has a pragmatic and straightforward style that helps clients stay focused on their goals.

Both American and French, Julie’s coaching clients are in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia. She works with leaders who wish to broaden their existing strengths in order to truly leverage their roles of increasing responsibility and complexity.

She accompanies clients in defining the true issues at stake, in widening the options for developing different strategies, and in deepening their understanding of the potential impacts of their choices. Her clients include organizations such as Deloitte, AXA, Naspers, and HSBC. She is also committed to taking on clients working in high social impact roles.

Julie has an MBA from INSEAD, coaching accreditation from Ashridge Business School, and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Management Science from the University of California at San Diego.  She is an EMCC Accredited Coach at Senior Practitioner Level.
