ABOUT SAMY ADDOU

Results oriented mindset executive with strong expertise in delivering profitable growth, using revenue management, pricing, distribution, commercial and relationship skills. I like to improve efficiency in processes and in team structure to reach targets. Aviation industry learnings have strengthen my ability to adapt in a fast-paced environments, requiring flexibility and adaptability at all levels. I have learnt to do business within multi channels sale fields (corporate, groups, indirect sales, e-commerce, direct sales web, call centers, agents…) having to decide upon strategies for global deals with complex mechanisms of pricing, availability, incentive schemes, target settings and monitoring. I have effectively led teams in large international groups, dealing with very different financial situations and costs structure. To me, leading is definitely inspiring peers to support them to achieve common goals and joint targets, by clearly defining directions as well as easing hurdles that team members may have along the way. I do always rely on my positive spirit supported by a logical and a consistent thinking. I have been working in 4 different countries across 3 continents, with several multi cultural partners and managing up to 11 different nationalities in one single team! I believe in complex analysis to simplify at best commercial issues always keeping in mind budget requirements. Not only looking at industry practices but also leading people to deliver innovative ideas matching markets needs. I believe that content of a decision making is as important as time-to-market. Keeping business requirements as the overall target is key to succeed in implementing technical and operational plans, focusing on communication to improve understanding within teams and external partners. Passionate, enthusiastic and reliable would define me well.
