His own experience as an entrepreneur (he was founder and CEO until 1995 of "L'Annuaire Soleil", the first competitor of the Yellow Pages, former France Telecom) has led him to focus his research on innovation, entrepreneurship, leadership and organizational resilience. He has published a dozen books, including recently "Innovation & Entrepreneurship. From the Idea to the Organization." (Eska Publishing 2011) with Sophie Morin Delerm, "La stratégie du propriétaire" (Pearson 2012) with Nicolas Kachaner and Sophie Mignon and "L’éternité en héritage" (Economica, 2nd ed. 2016) with Isabelle Lamothe.
He is also Honorary Chamber Presiding Judge of Paris Commercial Court, where he remains until 2014, and Vice Chairman of Léon Grosse SA (MLLEO Euronext Paris) since 2016.
