Sébastien Zins, in the role of Le Cid (What I learned at Teleperformance)

‘Handling the first calls I received in customer service at Wanadoo was something unique. I was 24, there was everything to do from a technical point of view and I knew nothing about it. When he joined Teleperformance in 1997, Sébastien Zins joined the 1st Customer Service Centre in France. Growing from 35 to 600 people in 18 months was a great learning experience, not to mention a few other memorable adventures. He is now VP at Salesforce, Head of Marketing Cloud.

Starting from almost nothing in France and managing to become the world's number 1 in its business, outsourced customer experience and BPO, is rare, even more so in service activities and businesses. Daniel Julien achieved this performance, accompanied by managers and employees who all say that their time in Paris, on rue Firmin Gillot (which was once the historic headquarters of Teleperformance in France), has left a lasting impression on their minds and their professional practices.
