I look for leverage points and design approaches that can sustain themselves, rather than relying on constant heroic effort. I also believe nothing exists in isolation: business, technology, culture, and human behavior are deeply connected. I draw inspiration from unanticipated places, especially sports, nature, and real human interactions. They teach you quickly that progress is rarely linear and that consistency beats intensity over time.https://ghislainfy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/gfy-cycling-philosophy-part.jpgGFY Cycling Philosophy PartBeyond work Outside of work, I’m grounded by my family and energized by exploring the world through travel and nature. I also push myself physically through running, cycling, and swimming. Those disciplines keep me honest: they teach patience, humility, and the kind of fortitude that shows up quietly, every day.https://ghislainfy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/for-about-page.jpgFor About Pagehttps://ghislainfy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/manager-1-cold.jpgManager 1 coldhttps://ghislainfy.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/view-1.jpgView 1What I do today Today, I serve as General Manager, Digital and Integration (West Africa) at SLB, a global technology company focused on driving energy innovation.
