Alain Fernandez

An international consultant, an expert in performance management and a specialist in the Information Technology (IT) soft integration.
Whether as a manager, a designer, an expert or a consultant, I've seen from inside the evolution of project management in these last 20 years, in Europe, North America, Australasia, etc? Convinced that solely human-focused technologies are useful, I devote most of my time publishing, communicating, sharing, in order to contribute to the development of a more human management.
I run the francophone performance portal www.piloter.org and www.executive-dashboard.org in english;
since 1998, www.nodesway.com, a web site entirely dedicated to dashboards and decision support ;
since 2004, the blog www.le-perfologue.net ;
in order to shed a more spontaneous and interactive light on these essential matters;
www.chef-de-projet.org, the online guide for project management ;
www.tableau-de-bord.org , the practical guide to build a dashboard with Microsoft Excel ;
www.controle-de-gestion.com, a guide for the account controller.
These Web sites represent more than 800 online pages, that is a pretty consequent documentary base. 285.000 pages were read in September.
I also published some reference books in French :
? New executive dashboards (Les nouveaux tableaux de bord des managers) (republished several times between 1998 and 2008),
? Executive dashboards with Excel (L'essentiel du tableau de bord) (2005, republished in 2008),v ? Efficient project manager (Le chef de projet efficace) (2003, republished 2005, 2009),
? The good use of technologies explained to the manager (Le bon usage des technologies expliqué au manager
And more recently, an ebook : Vive la performance ! 36 recommendations pour un management de la performance assumé. A free 160-pages PDF.
