Flexi France is a subsidiary of the industrial group TechnipFMC, a world leader in engineering, construction and services in the fields of oil, gas, petrochemicals and industrial services.
With 1,000 employees at its site near Rouen, including an integrated research and development center, Flexi France manufactures advanced flexible pipes for the offshore oil and gas industry and provides maintenance for the installation and intervention equipment used offshore.
The context
Like many industrial companies, Flexi France and the TechnipFMC group have been experiencing continuous changes for several years – digital transformation, the hybridization of work, the climate and energy crisis… – which are driving profound changes in their customers and increasingly high expectations from their employees.
This constantly changing environment challenges the Group to develop its ability to innovate to integrate these transformations – and anticipate the future – relying naturally on its leaders, but also on its management community.
The objectives
Since 2021, the General Directorate and the Human Resources Department of Flexi France have regularly sought the talenco team’s assistance in developing tailor-made solutions for:
- helping managers to evolve their practices and to actively contribute to the Group's operational transformations,
- to help leaders more effectively translate strategic vision into operational execution in a world in perpetual crisis.
