Talent Management Truths

Resilient Leadership with Catherine Hebert

Lisa Mitchell / Catherine Hebert Episode 136

“Sometimes I do explain and talk about our function as a first responder. Sometimes we see, we're exposed to really tragic personal stories. We witness, you know, some particularly traumatic incidents.”
- Catherine Hebert

What life experiences have shaped your approach to how you lead? How would you describe yourself as a leader?  Today’s guest shares her journey to becoming a highly-resilient woman and leader through broad experience, traumatic loss and deep learning.

My guest is Catherine Hebert. Catherine Hébert is a dynamic, creative, strategic leader, as well as a growth facilitator. In June 2021, Catherine assumed the pivotal role of Chief Talent Officer with InterRent, leveraging over 25 years of talent management experience. Throughout her professional journey, Catherine has demonstrated her passion for driving organizational excellence, fostering cultures of continuous growth, and her commitment to elevating the human capital agenda in diverse industries and roles on a global scale.

Catherine believes in looking for the “beautiful” side of collateral damage; collateral beauty and learnings from life which have been the driving force of her professional and personal life.

Originally from Saguenay, Quebec she has since settled with her family in a rural community west of Ottawa, Ontario. Catherine holds a Bilingual BA in Sociology from York University’s Glendon College, complemented by further studies in Human Resources Management, Change Management, and Coaching. 

 

Catherine's multifaceted background, coupled with her passion for organizational development and talent management, continues to fuel her mission of fostering growth and resilience in individuals and teams alike.

In this episode of Talent Management Truths, you’ll discover:

  • An analogy about HR and first responders
  • A very personal case for going to coaching school even if you don’t want to ultimately BE a coach 
  • The bittersweet collateral beauty of things not turning out the way you had envisioned
