Delphine Ernotte built a career in business at a period when the rules of commerce were themselves changing.
The record lists Delphine Ernotte as chief executive officer of France Télévisions.
Delphine Ernotte was born at Bayonne in 1966. Her recorded nationality is France. She was educated at École Centrale Paris.
Modern enterprise is global, capital-light and fast: companies can reach scale in years rather than generations, and lose it as quickly.
She worked as engineer, businessperson and entrepreneur.
Her recorded affiliations include Orange and France Télévisions.
Enterprises outlive their founders or they do not, and that is the whole test.
Recognition followed: Knight of the National Order of Merit (2011) and Knight of the Legion of Honour (2014).
That the business was built from France shaped it: capital, regulation and market size differ by country, and they decide what is even attemptable.
Delphine Ernotte is still active, and the verdict on the career has not been reached.
