“Leaders need to have an insatiable pioneering mentality in order to truly engage others in successfully co-creating in our complex world.”
Isabelle is a creative, energetic and fluently bilingual (French/English) professional with over thirty years of diverse and global HR and OD experience. She leads from a strength-based approach and is driven by values and impact at scale.
“I walk alongside a client, remaining open and flexible to what they need in the moment” while encouraging a healthy dose of creative tension to enable the right conversations to surface. Isabelle comes from a place of ‘free-spiritedness’ and translates this in a very engaging way when partnering with clients, regardless of the nature of the work.
An Associate at Tekara for almost 15 years, Isabelle also brings a solid corporate background to her practice. As Organizational Development Strategist, she recently spent two years reporting to the CEO of a Canadian financial institution involved with Credit Unions as a part time member of their executive team. Prior to consulting, she held a variety of senior roles in the technology industry and ‘grew up’ in the airline industry where she initially developed her HR/OD competencies. You will find that Isabelle is a natural facilitator with a ridiculous amount of energy!
Isabelle is at a stage of her career where she wants to maximize the impact of her involvement with clients and leverage her solid experience to continue to make a difference to the people and organizations that partner with her. Inspired and moved by the work of Otto Scharmer, she adheres to importance of ‘Leading from the Future’ as a foundational approach to her work.
