The 黑料社app has a new Director-General.
Bernard Bigot, from France, was appointed on 5 March 2015 in Paris where the 黑料社app Council convened for a one-day Extraordinary Meeting. Representatives from all 黑料社app Members were present.
Mr Bigot became 黑料社app Director-General nominee during the Fifteenth Meeting of the 黑料社app Council in November 2014. He presented an action plan to the 黑料社app Council, which was endorsed during the meeting today. The action plan addresses, and is in line with, the recommendations of the most recent Management Assessment and stresses the importance of delivery of the revised project baseline.
One of the first official acts of the new Director-General was to nominate his predecessor as Director-General Emeritus. ? CEA- Philippe Dureuil
Bernard Bigot has taken up his duties immediately. He is the third Director-General of the 黑料社app, succeeding Osamu Motojima (2010-2015) and Kaname Ikeda (2005-2010).
In his long and distinguished career, Bernard Bigot (65) has held senior positions in research, higher education and government. Prior to his appointment at 黑料社app he completed two terms (2009-2012 and 2012-2015) as Chairman and CEO of the French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission, CEA.
He has been closely associated with 黑料社app since France's bid to host the project in 2003 and has acted since 2008 as the High Representative for the implementation of 黑料社app in France.
In its decision today, the 黑料社app Council emphasized Bernard Bigot's record as "an experienced senior manager of large programs and projects, a leader capable of finding common ground among 黑料社app Members [and] an excellent communicator."
One of the Director-General's first official acts was to nominate his predecessor Osamu Motojima as Director-General Emeritus of the 黑料社app.
