Head team

This group is made up of the heads of the various teams. The managers are responsible for the overall strategy, decision-making and coordination within the project. They meet at least once a week to communicate on the progress of their tasks, plan future deadlines and to make sure that the project is running smoothly.

Each leader manages a team up to 20 motivated team members, transmits the latest decisions and ensures the representation of their vision within the project. Each one is responsible for a team which you can discover below along with the description of its role within the project.
