Hi, let me introduce myself: my name is Florentine Benard, I’m 38 years old and I graduated in 2006 from the EDHEC BBA programme in Lille. I want to be a part of the EDHEC Resources adventure because for me it’s a family affair. My parents attended EDHEC, and my brother, sister, stepsister and myself all did the EDHEC BBA programme. EDHEC Business School, like a family, is about intergenerational transfer.

Whether theory or practical knowledge, this transfer takes place against a backdrop of benevolence that is conducive to excellence and a spirit of mutual assistance.

Earlier in my career, I served for 15 years as Director of clientele for media companies in Paris. Then last year, I switched paths and became a consultant offering support for career transitions.

 I received a great deal from EDHEC and have leaned on the network of graduates, whether to benefit from their feedback, information-sharing or recommendations.

That’s why I have now decided to get involved in turn as an EDHEC Resource so I can share my knowledge about working in sales as well as answer questions from young graduates.

I would be delighted to be able to contribute to EDHEC’s strength as a family of members who help each other out.
