Mika Grapin has a wide professional experience: after he graduated from Centrale Lyon and received an MBA from HEC (ISA), he successively became head of strategic planning for Hutchinson, then chief financial officer, marketing manager, and managing director of affiliates within the TOTAL group. Then, he turned to consulting and was head of the strategic practice at the MAC group's Paris office (which became Gemini Consulting in 1991).

In 1995, he created Izsak Grapin & Associes. Through his 20 year experience in consulting, Mika has been able to explore all the disciplines in this industry, but his favorite projects are those embarking all the employees of a company into an ambitious strategic change programme.

Mika has an insatiable appetite for reading and loves listening to music when he has time. He fosters his creativity and his thoughts through taking interest in the most diverse fields of study.
