An entrepreneur and senior officer in the Swiss Armed Forces, Daniel Donnet-Monay brings together two worlds governed by the same rule: do not wait for the crisis to start preparing. His background gives him a highly operational understanding of risk, anticipation and decision-making.
A lieutenant colonel in the Swiss Armed Forces, armoured grenadier and commander of armoured units, Daniel Donnet-Monay has spent thirty years in environments where uncertainty, pressure and responsibility are constant. There he learned to decide with incomplete information, set a clear course and keep a team together when the situation moves faster than the plan. He now applies that experience to the challenges facing executives and organisations.
As an entrepreneur, he founded VICI Swiss Competitive Intelligence, which specialises in cyber intelligence, competitive intelligence and information protection. Dark web, disinformation, cyber threats, reputation, weak signals: he helps organisations detect what is brewing, understand hostile intentions and act before a threat turns into a crisis.
For Daniel Donnet-Monay, resilience begins long before the shock. Monitoring, analysing, prioritising, preparing scenarios: he applies the principles of intelligence and military planning to the realities of business. The goal: turn uncertainty into a strategic advantage. His message is simple: an organisation that knows how to look ahead always has a head start.
Under pressure, more information does not necessarily mean better decisions. Daniel Donnet-Monay shows how to avoid overload, clarify priorities and keep enough clarity of mind to act at the right moment. His talks give executives and teams concrete reference points to anticipate, decide and keep the initiative when everything becomes urgent.
We can no longer afford to be caught off guard.
