Antonio Carriero

„I’ve been working for years now with Antonio, and I can say he is a very talented and unique professional. His background, made of a very deep understanding of what technology means in literally all the main key markets of this world (Asia including China mainland, Europe and America), makes Antonio a massive asset – in a top leadership role - for any large corporation willing to strengthen and scale its digital business operations across the globe. I’d like to summarize his profile through the following 3 aspects of his very fascinating personality: 1 - Competencies (Antonio’s skills and behaviors required for success): 1.1 - GLOBAL: Antonio thinks in a very global perspective and has the perfect level of traction for driving any global/international organization. He aligns execution across all leadership levels. 1.2 - ENGAGEMENT & INSPIRATION: Additionally, he engages and inspires, which is a rare skill that is related to building effective teams and developing talents, especially in the e-commerce and digital transformation area. 2 - Traits (Antonio’s inclinations and natural tendencies including personality traits): 2.1 - AGILITY: Antonio is adaptable, curious, and has a strong innovative thinking. 2.2 - ENERGY: He demonstrates vitality, resilience, and drive for achievement in spite of obstacles, dealing with internal political roadblocks that are unavoidable for transforming any large organization. 3 - Drivers (Antonio’s values and interests that influence his motivation and engagement): 3.1 - INDEPENDENCE: Antonio has a very strong integrity and independence of mind (that’s what I love with him!). Businesswise, this means that, even within large groups or corporations, he prefers an entrepreneurial approach with limited organizational constraints. 3.2 - CHALLENGE: He is highly motivated by achievement in the face of tough obstacles. These 2 combined skills are especially appropriate for supporting a large company who wants to succeed in digital! “

„I had the opportunity to work with Antonio while he was spearheading the digital transformation at Richemont. Antonio understands the luxury market very well and comes with amazing experience in working with distributed teams for global rollout of large e-commerce stores. He built the engineering and operations team from scratch and is a brilliant leader who inspire people around him to do work hard and deliver great results. One thing strikes me about Antonio is his decision taking capabilities, he takes the uncertainties out of the equations and presents the clear vision to all the stakeholders. “
