About Mr. Pierre Hessler

Born in Lausanne (Switzerland) on November 22, 1943, Pierre Hessler studied law and economics before joining IBM in Geneva, where he represented the company before international organizations. He continued his career in German speaking Switzerland, before joining the firm's European general management in Paris in 1980. He held several management positions within both IBM Europe and the firm's headquarters in Armonk (U.S). After twenty-seven years, with the company, he joined the Cap Gemini Sogeti Group in September 1993.

In July 1995, after taking part in the Genesis of the transformation program and the launching of the Convergence initiative, he took over the management of Gemini Consulting. A member of the Group's Directoire in May 1996, he was then appointed as a member of the Group's Board of Directors in May 2000. He left his general management functions in 2003, to remain on the Board as non-voting director, and today continues to supervise consulting and sales projects with the Group's major clients.
