Marie-Caroline Chauvet has been consulting with Insigniam since 2003, bringing 15 years of prior international corporate experience, including as an executive and a division controller at the world’s largest cosmetics company. In a recent engagement, Marie’s strategy consulting accelerated the integration and cultural transformation of a leading pharmaceutical company in Europe. Her leadership consulting enabled the research and development team of a leading European chemical company to establish new partnerships within the group’s divisions and prompted the CEO to boost R&D investment six-fold. Other projects include working with a billion-dollar family-owned company to expand their strategic frame and position the brand to powerfully integrate acquisitions; engaging 160 aerospace executives to redesign the future of their division; and leading an initiative that achieved breakthrough resolution of a stalled gas exploration project in the Middle East.

Marie-Caroline holds an MBA in International Business from Université Paris-Dauphine, completed the Executive Education General Management Program of INSEAD/CEDEP, and pre-doctorate work in strategy with a dissertation on corporate governance at the University of Toulouse.

She has authored over a dozen thought leadership articles and is a sought-after speaker on the topics of design thinking and innovation. Her depth of experience makes her a critical senior member of the Insigniam Learning & Development and Design & Innovation Teams.
