SKEMA strengthens its governance with the appointment of Fabienne Arata-Camps and Anthony Ledru
As part of its strategic ambition to deepen ties with the business world, SKEMA Business School welcomes two high-profile figures to its governance bodies: Fabienne Arata-Camps, Country Manager of LinkedIn France, and Anthony Ledru, President and CEO of Tiffany & Co. These appointments reflect the school’s continued commitment to staying closely aligned with the realities of the professional world and the challenges ahead.
Anthony Ledru: a leading expert in the luxury industry
A 1995 graduate of SKEMA, Anthony Ledru has become a prominent figure in the luxury sector. Now President and CEO of Tiffany & Co. in New York, he brings more than two decades of experience in the industry.
He has held senior positions at Cartier, Harry Winston, Louis Vuitton and Tiffany & Co., and will now contribute his expertise to help SKEMA anticipate future shifts in the luxury market and tailor its teaching to the sector’s needs. “Joining SKEMA’s board is a natural continuation of my close ties with the school and what it has brought me over the years. I closely follow each new intake of MSc Global Luxury & Management students, who I welcome annually at Tiffany & Co. in New York. I plan to share my business perspective and experience to prepare future managers for the realities of the industry. It’s also vital for a major brand like Tiffany to stay connected with the students who will become tomorrow’s leaders,” said Anthony Ledru.
Fabienne Arata-Camps: strategic insight and committed leadership
A SKEMA graduate from the class of 1988, Fabienne Arata-Camps has established herself as a key figure in the digital and talent management sectors. Currently Country Manager of LinkedIn France, she also oversees business relations with academic institutions and governments across EMEA and Latin America. Before joining LinkedIn in 2017, she built a strong career at Colombus IT, IBM and ManpowerGroup, gaining recognised expertise in both technology and human capital.

Alongside her strategic role, she actively campaigns against social determinism and promotes greater inclusion in the workplace. At LinkedIn, she founded “L’Alliance, Un réseau pour tous”, an initiative that brings together businesses and social economy stakeholders to raise awareness of the importance of networking and support jobseekers in accessing opportunities.
As an independent board member, she also sits on the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of Fimalac, further reflecting her engagement in corporate governance. “Joining SKEMA’s governance feels natural to me. My career path and current responsibilities at LinkedIn give me a unique perspective on how the job market is evolving, along with key issues such as inclusion and diversity. Understanding and anticipating future careers is essential for a school like SKEMA, which educates 11,000 students and prepares them for deep transformations in the world of work,” she explained.
A governance structure in tune with tomorrow’s challenges
Under the leadership of Dean and Executive President Alice Guilhon, and chaired by Jean-Philippe Courtois (SKEMA 1983), SKEMA draws on experts from strategic sectors to shape its future direction. The arrival of these two new members is part of the school’s wider ambition to anticipate major economic and societal changes. “I’m delighted to welcome these two outstanding individuals to our board. Their expertise will reinforce SKEMA’s commitment to delivering a forward-thinking education aligned with the professional world, developing visionary managers ready to meet the demands of a fast-changing global environment,” said Alice Guilhon.
