For this second episode of Pour de vrai, we handed the microphone to Thierry Foug\u00e8re, a seasoned international manager whose singular career raises profound questions about how we relate to others in the practice of management. Trained in management control, Thierry quickly moved into team management \u2014 first in France, then in Belgium, Japan, and more broadly across Asia, following studies in the United States. A journey shaped by cultural discoveries, moments of self-questioning, and intense human learning. In this episode, he shares with candour and perspective what those years abroad taught him: about cultural differences, of course, but also \u2014 and above all \u2014 about himself. Through subtle adjustments, openness, and the constant reinvention of his role, Thierry shows us that managing elsewhere often means relearning how to build connections differently, embodying a respectful form of authority, and evolving one's own reference points. A rich, nuanced, and deeply human account that presents intercultural management as a genuine school of personal transformation.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":18250,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18249","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pour-de-vrai"],"yoast_head":"\n
