I’m Dominique Touchaud, a global marketing leader with a track record of growing brands across FMCG, luxury/retail, and advertising. I founded Shokunin, a strategic marketing boutique, after leading global teams at P&G and Swatch, where I helped build award-winning campaigns and modernize marketing capability. I’ve collaborated with CMOs and agency leaders around the world to design growth platforms, launch new brands, and reinvent how marketing works in growth markets. I’m passionate about combining strategic clarity with creative execution to deliver measurable business impact. A lifelong learner and teacher, I’ve trained 3,000+ marketers, mentored via Franklin Covey and Hofstede Insights programs, and currently teach Global Marketing at Universidad Francisco Marroquín in Guatemala. My global perspective—rooted in Caribbean heritage and experiences across Switzerland, Chile, Panama, Singapore, and New Zealand—drives my approach to culturally intelligent, evidence-based marketing. I love building partnerships, embracing new tools, and shaping marketing models that stay ahead of change while delivering real value for brands and customers.
