General management
|
Compagnie des Alpes has a “federal” structure that combines a local flexibility and global efficiency. Operating companies, which are Group subsidiaries, are led by an operational team that is perfectly aware of local issues. These teams are completely responsible for the operations and the results of the companies they manage. They have broad autonomy in recruitment of staff, and in organizing the business (schedules, maintenance, security, etc.). They are also in charge of the local application of CDA’s overall policies, in areas as varied as capital expenditures, marketing, pricing policies and customer databases. The Compagnie des Alpes head office is the center of the network of operating companies. Based on classic central administrative services, such as Finance, Strategy, Development, and Supports Services Department, Marketing and Products Development Department, Industrial Department, Operational Departments such as Human Resources and Communication, head office is also where the Group’s overall policies and development are decided, which are then locally implemented by the subsidiaries. An elaborate reporting and planning system allows tight management at every level and the capacity for rapid reaction essential if this organization is to work well. Transparency is one of the Group’s key values. It allows free circulation of the know-how developed by each company, benefiting all Group companies. On March 19, 2009, Compagnie des Alpes adopted a single-tier management structure with a Board of Directors. The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer is assisted by 1 Deputy Managing Director and 3 Associate Managing Directors. Executive committee has 10 members. |
