About HERVE ANDORRE

Hervé Andorre holds a distinctive position within Dassault Systèmes’ governance, having been appointed as a director representing employees at the General Meeting held on 26 May 2020. His board role reflects a long internal career centered on human resources, skills development, and management culture. He also serves in a senior operational capacity as Vice President, Culture & Management at 3DS University, making him an important figure in the company’s people strategy and organizational transformation efforts. Before taking on these responsibilities, Andorre joined Dassault Systèmes in 1998 to establish the Human Resources Development function, helping to build a more structured approach to talent management and internal development. From 2003 onward, he led Human Resources Development, and between 2003 and 2008 he was responsible for human resources for the R&D and CATIA organizations, two of the company’s most strategically important areas. Since 2015, he has focused on Culture & Management, demonstrating deep expertise in leadership, employee engagement, organizational learning, and knowledge transfer. Earlier in his career, Andorre worked at IBM France, where he held roles as an engineer and later as a human resources manager. That combination of technical and HR experience gave him a particularly useful perspective in a high-technology, software-driven industrial environment. It likely also strengthened his ability to connect operational performance with workforce development and social dialogue. At Dassault Systèmes, his role sits at the intersection of strategy, culture, and employee representation. Over time, Andorre has helped reinforce a corporate culture built around learning, responsible management, and the alignment of innovation with human development. His presence on the board underscores Dassault Systèmes’ commitment to employee representation in governance, while his internal responsibilities highlight his influence in shaping the group’s cultural and managerial standards.
