Occupation : Senior Management
Industries : Consulting , Healthcare
Born in France, but grew up in Guadeloupe Island, French Guyana, Reunion Island, Australia, Spain, I have been in Singapore for 10 years now and married with a Chinese Singaporean, we have been together for 7 years.
Studied Pharmacy in France and worked in the Healthcare industry for 18 years, in many different commercial roles from sales, marketing, SFE, BD and building and managing teams. My specialty is business set-up and turn around. I did my MBA at IE business school in Madrid, specialized in BD and entrepreneurship.
When managing teams, I always focus on helping the members take control of their thinking to properly analyze the challenge and come up to me with solutions, not problem.
I am currently working as GM for APAC for Pharmaceutical company; my mission is to optimize the current commercial platform and to drive inorganic growth via in-licensing and M&A for the whole APAC region.
My nature is quite introvert, so I had to work harder to get out of my shell. I value integrity, hard and smart work, and resilience.
What I enjoy the most in building businesses, is the process of transforming an idea into a tangible reality thanks to the effort of a team of minds and personalities.
The reason why I entered the corporate world is to understand and learn how businesses run and are built, to be able to build and run my own very soon.
I am looking for mentor to help me move the next level of my Managerial and Strategic thinking skills to outperform in my new job.
And I am also looking for a mentor to help me prepare the transition to having my own businesses.

Charis graduated from the University at Buffalo (New York, United States) with a Bachelor (Hons) in Psychology. She is now working with Care Corner Singapore Ltd as a Social Work Executive with the Youth Services. She has been an active learner and contributor in the work with children and youths.

Having the desire to understand children, Charis began working as a Special Needs Education Coach in 2016 for 1.5 years. Through developing individualised programmes, Charis guided her students of diverse learning needs to develop positive communication skills and build resilience.

Charis was drawn to the mental health needs of youths and worked as a School Counsellor in 2017 for 3 years. With the principle that every individual possesses inner strengths to be discovered, Charis helped youths remake meaning of the past, rule over emotional triggers and gain awareness of their choices.

In wanting to bridge the gap between youths dreaming of a better self and becoming that better self, Charis has since began working with youths as a Social Work Executive in 2021. Using an insights-oriented approach, Charis empowered unmotivated students and youths offenders— some facing mental health and family issue — to exercise informed decisions and brave through obstacles hindering growth.

At the heart of her work, it is little about fixing problems, more about inspiring individuals to learn about themselves and inviting them to take ownership of their personal growth and dreams.
