Group management
André CALISTI
ChairmanAndré CALISTI
Chairman« Alone we go faster, together we go further ».
This African proverb sums up the path I want the group to take.
In an increasingly individualistic world, it’s tempting to run ahead of everyone else to get there first. Tempting to take it all in, not looking back to see the extent of the damage to our comrades. But if 10% of our comrades survive, 90% couldn’t keep up. Will we still be strong enough to face adversity ? Of course not.
« Together » also means cultivating our differences. The diversity of our singularities makes the group richer. Let’s encourage initiative and respect the right to make mistakes. Developing ‘working together’ is a difficult path. We will have to fight every day to follow it, but it is the only one that can lead us to lasting success.
For me, the company is a way of helping employees to make their professional career a motivating one, enabling them to fulfil their potential and thus secure the future of the company.
I come from the field, I worked in 3×8 production, I set up machines, and then I moved into technical, commercial and management jobs. So I’m keen to provide production with everything it needs to work smoothly, while meeting customers’ needs.
By developing autonomy, we encourage everyone to feel responsible for their results and to innovate to improve everyone’s performance.
