3.1.4 Directoire+

On the proposal of Arthur Sadoun, the management team was strengthened with the creation of a Directoire+ to prepare for the Groupe's future. This new management team is composed of highly qualified individuals who have demonstrated great leadership and expertise in the operations for which they are responsible. This new management team will have the role of making the "Power of One" work in an even deeper, broader and more demanding way, with the integration of e-commerce functions now inseparable from all dimensions of marketing and business transformation.

At December 31, 2022, the Directoire+ was composed of four members, with a 50% proportion of women.

The members of the Directoire+ are not members of the Management Board. They attend Management Board meetings when they are invited to do so and participate, in an advisory capacity only, in the discussions and work of this body. As a result, they do not vote on the decisions of the Management Board.

When they are invited to a Management Board meeting, they must treat all information during these meetings as strictly confidential.

The members of the Directoire+ strive to maintain their independence of analysis and judgment in all circumstances;they are required to inform the Management Board of any conflict of interest, whether direct or indirect, even potential,arising from the other positions and responsibilities they otherwise perform within or outside the Groupe. Should such a situation arise, they would abstain from participating in the Management Board’s discussions and work on the issue in question.
