Camille Clément has been named Adecco’s 2016 ‘Global CEO for One Month’.

Adecco Group’s ‘CEO for One Month’ program gives all participants a career kick-start, boosting their skills, confidence and employability.

This year’s challenge started in March with over 54,600 applicants from all around the world, out of whom 50 CEOs for One Month were picked (one per country). All of them worked alongside Adecco Country Managers. A selection of 10 were then invited to the ‘Global CEO for One Month’ boot camp in Amsterdam, with the top 5 proceeding to the final challenge and interview in Tokyo.

During this experience, all 50 ‘CEOs for One Month’ learned on the job and developed soft skills that are in high demand by employers today, such as strategic thinking, problem solving, communication skills, flexibility and creativity. In addition, each of these candidates will receive further professional opportunities and guidance from the Adecco Group.

Due to Camille Clément’s creativity, strategic thinking, team spirit, customer focus and passion, she earned the remarkable opportunity to work alongside Group CEO Alain Dehaze.

Therefore, Clément will get a frontline view on how executives approach the challenges of running a €22 billion, global Fortune 500 company. Beyond HR solutions and the staffing business specifically, she will learn on the job business skills, including management, finance, marketing, and will experience public speaking opportunities on behalf of Adecco Group. And, by the end of the month, the company will offer Camille a position in line with her ambitions and skills.

Adecco’s ‘CEO for One Month’ programme aims to help talented young people gain relevant work experience to boost their employability. The program is an initiative to help tackle youth unemployment, which is a major problem all over the world.
