Helen Zhou was born in Shanghai, where she was raised by her grandmother. She graduated from the Sun Yat-sen University in English and Business and started her career at a beauty brand in Guangzhou. She is now General manager of Guerlain, China. In 2013, she applied to Sephora, her first job within the LVMH Group. She had to be interviewed by the Group's President for China. To her great surprise, when she opened the door, the President turned out to be a woman, Anne-Véronique Bruel. Anne-Véronique, who is now CEO of FRESH, asked her to sit down not in front of her, but beside her: "And this has completely changed the relationship, because sitting on the opposite side as I used to do to report to my line manager, it gives some kind of hierarchy." Helen remembers. This particular moment made her realize that women can reach the highest positions, while remaining true and authentic: "Being a female leader doesn’t request being a copycat of other leaders”. Since then, Helen has completely changed her way of being a manager, she doesn't hesitate to express her feelings to her team, to talk about her own difficulties. Finally, Helen realized that « [she can be true to who [she is]”.

#8 – Séraphine Dhellemmes « Je suis là où je dois être »
Pour Séraphine Dhellemmes, depuis 2015 et la fin de ses études d’ingénieur, tout s’est enchainé très vite, naturellement, « avec de la chance et sans [qu’elle] l’ait vraiment cherché ». Quand son stage dans le secteur des cosmétiques pour LVMH Recherche se transforme en CDI, elle a le sentiment que ce qui lui arrive est un cadeau. Mais un cadeau qu’elle n’aurait pas eu le temps de désirer. Alors après quelques années à son poste, elle s’autorise à réfléchir à ce qu’elle veut vraiment pour la suite de sa carrière. En 2019, forte de ses expériences au sein de LVMH Recherche, elle trouve la confiance nécessaire pour s’affirmer. Elle entreprend alors une série de rencontres avec des personnes aux métiers qui l’inspirent en lien avec le secteur de la mode et de la maroquinerie et reçoit une proposition. C’est la suite logique de son parcours mais surtout, c’est son choix. Elle intègre alors les équipes de LVMH Métiers d’Art et devient leur Ambassadrice. En charge de la coordination du développement des tanneries des Maisons du Groupe, elle prend le temps de s’imprégner de leurs savoir-faire et traditions orales séculaires. Pour elle, c’est en confrontant « la naïveté d’un regard plus jeune et extérieur » à des traditions plus anciennes qu’on arrive à créer des nouveautés et à faire aboutir collectivement de beaux projets. Aujourd’hui, elle se sent vraiment à sa place, elle est là où « [elle] voulait être »...Et ce n’est que le début d’une grande aventure.
