Stanislas de Quercize – Emparadiser la vie

Stanislas de Quercize has worked in the luxury industry since joining the Richemont group in 1990. Rising through the ranks, he led Montblanc in France and the United States, Cartier in both countries, Van Cleef & Arpels internationally, and later Cartier International and Richemont France. Known for bringing fresh energy to his teams, he also served as a board member of the Comité Colbert from 2005 to 2015 and sits on the executive boards of several major brands, including Barnes, Messika, and Louboutin.

A prominent business leader, father of four, husband, and engaged citizen, he is deeply committed to charitable work. In Emparadiser la vie (Alisio, 2025), he reflects on his career and shares insights from many inspiring leaders. His core belief? That each person’s mission on Earth is to “radiate happiness, throughout the world and for humanity.”
