Personal Life & Experiences of Pieter Claudel

The Worlds Times: Explain your background, the book you wrote and “Charlotta Carlson” brand in detail.

Pieter Claudel: From my young age, I have been in commerce. At 8, like many other kids, I was selling his own tools to my dad. But at 14, I actually really started to work in sales in Video games in same time than my studies of course. I am proud to say that I could cover all my expenses, (business school…) not depending on my parent’s finance as we were from a very humble social environment. And at the age of 24, after my Master in Business, I started my journey in cosmetic leading to 20 years’ experience in the beauty business. From Retail, opening and developping 100’s of stores, to e-commerce, wholesale and now trading worldwide … my staff, colleague and customers say that I am an enthusiastic and highly experienced ret@il and omnichannel leader with a strong background in worldwide beauty markets. My background reflects a deep expertise in the beauty, cosmetics, and fashion industries. My ability to develop strong distributor, importer, and wholesaler networks worldwide is evident with a proven track record of successfully expanding business across Europe, Africa, Americas, Oceania and especially Asia.

I would say that what supported the most the development of my career is a set of skills which includes an “employee entrepreneur” mindset. And I develop this concept in my book named: “Inpreneur – New vision of the employee with an entrepreneurial mentality”.

Over my 20 years’ journey, I’ve showcased leadership and a knack for crafting and executing strategies on a global scale. From retail manager to roles as a General Manager, or Executive Director I could demonstrate my capacity to oversee diverse teams, manage key accounts, develop brand and marketing strategies and foster harmonized omni-channel strategies internationally in beauty and cosmetics.

My proficiency in enhancing brand awareness and managing multi-brand portfolios that I have done as consultant for hundreds of brands, aligns well with the diverse offerings of the brand Charlotta Carlson which is the latest brand that I helped as consultant in its creation, launch and expansion.

I wanted to bring Charlotta Carlson all my experience in international business development, team leadership, recruitment, and organizational management especially my adaptability in cross-functional and multicultural environments.

Not mentioning that I could bring all my knowledge in terms of product Development, brand creation from marketing point of view but also from legal and administrative perspective. Buying, sourcing, packaging, and pricing demonstrates my grasp of the entire product lifecycle. Additionally, my expertise in demand planning, inventory control, and supply chain management ensures optimal business operations.

And the brand takes its roots and inspiration from its origin, France and Sweden of the family members.

Goals of Pieter Claudel

The Worlds Times: What are your goals?

Pieter Claudel: All my career I searched for meaningful sense into the brands and the jobs I worked for. I can clearly say that I always been in an enthusiastic environment rather than being at “work”. Indeed, my passion for health & beauty and fashion industries, especially in natural cosmetics, skincare, fragrance, and other related industries, adds a personal touch to my professional journey.

It is important to me that I feel totally confident about the product I place in the customer’s hands.

So my goal to support Charlotta Carlson is also for this reason. Indeed, I wanted to help spread at my humble level the good values of Charlotta Carlson brand in the beauty and cosmetics landscape. Their products provide to the skin, body and mind, ultra-effective proven results products in a premium timeless lifestyle and eco-friendly manner.

And last but not least, as Charlotta Carlson is in a start-up feeling with fast Business Expansion, it matched my mindset as I describe in the book I recently wrote that I mentioned above: “the Inpreneur”.

Work Life of Pieter Claudel

The Worlds Times: What are the bridges between your book and your consultancy for Charlotta Carlson ?

Pieter Claudel: Charlotta Calson is a brand owned by its family 100% – not from a big group nor a fund – which allow them to be more proactive and totally independent. And the owners’ philosophy allows to open much more freedom and wider range of opportunities to their collaborators and consultants. This matches totally the “Inpreneur” concept that I develop in my book.

The Worlds Times: Tell us more about your book on your new concept: The Inpreneur ?

Pieter Claudel: In economic activities, normally there are entrepreneurs, employees who are executives or not, but also more recently intrapreneurs, and here are now the inpreneurs.

All along my career, I took note of behaviors of my colleagues, my staff, myself… and in this book, it is a question of highlighting a whole category of people working in companies, but who are not entrepreneurs since they are employees, nor creators of new concepts, products, services or other innovations… as defined in the concept of intrapreneur, but who goes beyond their areas of expertise for the success of the business as if it were their own business, therefore in the idea of an “employee entrepreneur” that I call the inpreneur.

Inpreneurship refers to a way of thinking, an attitude and the initiatives of employees in organizations to undertake tasks, often without even being asked to do so, but because they have identified it as beneficial to reach goals, to achieve their objectives and the creation of value within the company for the good of the latter.

As the behavioral content of the inpreneur is still unexplored, I review in my book the relevant literature, my personal experiences in international management for twenty years in business and a reflection in order to put in place this concept.

The book illustrates the profile and relevant behaviors of an inpreneur, even if not exhaustive. His behavior within existing organizations, such as proactivity, understanding of the environment, perception of opportunities, persuasion, taking initiative, thinking outside the box plus a certain degree of risk taking… whatever the market, or the geographic area in emerging countries or not.

The book then discusses the similarities and differences between inpreneurship, intrapreneurship and entrepreneurship, but also with perspectives vis-à-vis managers and employee shareholders.

Last but not least, the book explores the roads for implementing this mode of operation within a company, and is intended as a prelude to future empirical work, developing or even structuring Inpreneurship. Opposite to the corpus of management books existing already and embellished with my field experience, I wish to bring, through this sharing, solutions at my humble level to improve the performance of people who are in this category and the companies with their management of these inpreneurs eventually member of their team, to secure mutual understanding and gain performance from this.

Inpreneurship: the recognition of a crucial concept for your and companies’ performance.

And I could feel that mindset during my cooperation with Charlotta Carlson.

Knowledge & Future

The Worlds Times: What are some common beauty mistakes people make?

Pieter Claudel: From a user’s perspective, the misstep of forgoing a consistent skincare regimen, undervaluing the importance of sun protection, or erring in the selection of inappropriate cream for their skin can have a ripple effect. If you add to this, consumer eagerness for immediate results, it often leads to overlooking critical considerations such as ingredient analysis, potential allergies, or suitability for their skin type. In addition, consumers may simply purchase by the packaging which is often just a “green washing” product, or also impulse buying driven by captivating marketing campaigns or the allure of fleeting trends… all this to exemplify the influence of psychological triggers on purchasing decisions. These errors for the skin, or simply just that people have no time to check deeply the brands they purchase, increase disappointment and need for serious brands, multiplied across a consumer base, lead to an increased demand for corrective products and treatments, thus shaping market trends.

Moreover, misusing skincare products through excessive application or erratic schedules can disrupt the delicate balance of the skin’s natural processes. This creates a cycle of product dependency, as endorsed by many brands suggesting up to 10 products for a morning or night routine!!! But where the very solutions sought by consumers become the catalysts for repeated transactions.

These collective missteps collectively fuel a perpetual cycle of product consumption, forging a symbiotic relationship between consumer choices and the beauty industry’s offerings. Thus, the nuanced intersection of individual preferences and economic influences underscores the multifaceted nature of these common beauty mistakes, encapsulating both personal choices and broader market dynamics.

Thus, the overlooked significance of research, selective purchasing, and informed application converges to usage of simple, multi-function products as Charlotta Carlson created in a way to provide efficient support to user’s skin, and yet with style!

The Worlds Times: How do you see the company changing in three years, and how do you see yourself creating that change?

In the span of three years, the expansion of the company can be characterized by a refined alignment with consumer preferences, regulatory shifts, and technological advancements within the ever-evolving beauty landscape. As an instrumental catalyst, my role assumes a multifaceted dimension in the set-up, entailing adept navigation of market dynamics and strategic innovation. By meticulously deciphering consumer trends, fostering collaborations with research and development to launch new multi-function products, keep its classic authentic style and honing the brand’s narrative to resonate with sustainability, I envision steering the company toward a pinnacle of relevance and resilience. Its expansion shall be done with importers and distributors per country, to partner with, but yet remaining a brand totally family owned to keep independent.

Additionally, I envision nurturing partnerships, cultivating a network that echoes the global shifts in beauty ideals and demands, obviously with influencers but also through word of mouth of consumers that is the best positive sounds a brand can get and still proves further the trust in the products beauty efficiency to speak for themselves.
