Jacques Fauré

Past President

As a conscientious young man, I made the decision to follow a career in Industrial Engineering, and since then I have developed a furious passion for it, unconsciously living the principles in everyday life.

I am a conceptual thinker, with an intuitive understanding of processes and a strongly developed sense of simplification. As a dynamic team player, practicing a servant leadership style, I aim to enable the individual for the benefit of the team. Integrity and accountability are of key importance to me. I make a continuous effort to develop my industry-specific skills further into transferable skills. A well-developed sense of self has led to my appointment to the SAIIE Council as the youngest member of Council in the history of the Institute, where I was elected to serve as President in April 2021, and most recently conferred an Honorary Fellowship.

I am adventurous, ambitious, a contagiously big dreamer and have a strong determination to make a positive difference. Arduous lessons from my professional experience also keep me humble and securely grounded.
