Background

About Yannick Connan

I'm an accomplished global creative leader guiding businesses to deliver standout products and experiences, connect with customers, and stay ahead of the competition. With an eye for design, CX/UX expertise, and a tech-savvy drive, I help businesses of all sizes and sectors with product design, digital transformation, touchpoint integration, e-commerce, demand generation, and content challenges. I do this by finding the sweet spot between what makes you different, what you can deliver, and what your customers need. With over 25 years of experience working on global brands and managing teams in the US, UK, France, and Japan, I have a rich understanding of uniting people toward a common goal and creating seamless global experiences that adapt to local needs. I'm an inspirational leader and mentor dedicated to driving design excellence and creativity in my team and the global organization. I put people first and strive to create an open, inclusive environment where creativity flourishes while providing customer-centric, lean practices that keep performance at its highest. My approach is informed, collaborative, and experimental. Informed because customer understanding and incremental progress is the surest path to real-world results. Collaborative because there's nothing more creatively potent than having people of widely different backgrounds and point-of-views help each other succeed. And experimental because, through the years, I understood that competitive advantage is built not in your ability to forecast the future but in your ability to learn from bold actions. I always seek bright, passionate designers, creatives, strategists, researchers, and analysts. If you want to be part of an incredible multi-disciplinary team that will support you to do your best work, give me a shout. Currently living in New York City, you'll find me wandering around with a camera in my hand, enjoying the city's food, art, and adventures. Connect with me; let's talk and create results never thought possible!
