I too am saddened as the transformation if Jlc was quite extraordinary
May 09, 2013,05:05 AM
If ever one man stamped his personality vigour and dynamism on a company it was Jerome lambert
I also feel he needed at least another 5 years to complete the job he started
I am not convinced that Mont Blanc is the right company for him but I am convinced that Mont Blanc will benefit from him
Wishing him well for the future

Just saw the announcement about Jerome Lambert going to Montblanc as of July 1. He has helped JLC skyrocket within the last 13 years, and I wish him well. I do hope Daniel Riedo, who was promoted from within, can take JLC higher and get the marketing firm...
Allow me to be a bit moderated in my happyness.

First of all, I think it is a good promotion and challenge for Jerome. Jerome is a man of challenges, and this new experience to come is a big one. A good " tremplin " for some higher summits? So yes, I am happy for him, even if each challenge has its par...
From our conversations I do understand you fully Nicolas..

Now, from my perspective, will Mr Lambert step the BIG step and "resurrect" Minerva? I guess time will tell (so cheap, I know) but ...time IS the essence on this forum:):) Cheers, my friend, Francois from Down Under!

Brands like JLC, PP, AP, VCR, etc., have their products in the pipeline for the next 5- to-10 years. So other strategies will hopefully come to light in other areas (communication, marketing, etc.). -Dean

who was pivotal in setting the direction for JLC and for the watches we have come to love. A pity to see him go. I remember sitting across from him at a dinner in HK after a presentation of some new watches and my first question to him was, "why didn't yo...
It's all about the people...

Mr Lambert has been CEO of JLC for as long as I have had an interest in the brand. And while I have definitely had my grievances with some of the strategies that have been chosen, especially in marketing, I am still in awe of the overall quality and taste...
Best wishes to Jerome at MB.

He sure was very well respected at JLC, deservedly so. Big shoes to fill now; I trust Mr. Riedo is up to the challenge.
That's life

Hi, Like Nicolas wrote I feel sad because I've known Jerome for nearly 9 years and have always appreciated him, his work and our encounters. His influençe on JLC is huge. Look at the last catalog, compare with a catalog from 10 years ago or more and make ...
Sure. nt

Regarding the new ceo, directions, what parts of Lambert's vision/strategy will continue or take a different turn... That sort of boring stuff ;) Should be interesting how the new boss will differ from the previous.
It is with sadness I read this news...

He is a big part of the reason JLC is what it is today. I wish Mr. Lambert all the best of luck in his new possition! Best Blomman
