More about Geneviève...
Why did you choose promutuel insurance?
I love our strong commitment to communities. Promutuel Insurance is a social player with a meaningful local presence. Our actions and our desire for transformation have a tangible impact that helps us better meet the needs and expectations of members. That energy and drive are what inspire me.
How do you define being there?
First of all, you have to be there, in communities, to make a difference. Then you have to be there personally, in the moment, whether it’s a meeting with an employee or with a colleague. Be there 100%, both in mind and in spirit.
A quote you live by?
“Be not afraid of going slowly; be afraid only of standing still.” —Chinese proverb
Do you have any hidden talents?
I love cooking, usually with friends. I can’t say that I’m particularly talented, but at least I have a lot of fun!
Sweet or salty?
When I eat chips, I have to eat chocolate afterwards. And vice versa. It’s all about balance, obviously.
