Bio
Paul Boyle
I worked closely with Gilles for a number of years and was always impressed with the energy he bought to leadership. Always approachable, he has a direct and engaging management style which builds teams and motivates others. He also understands the complexity behind leading a multimillion dollar portfolio and adeptly manages the challenges this generates – communicating clearly to the teams he leads and well as the wider executive team.
Thad Baringer
Gilles was my VP for several years, and in this time I saw that he has the rare leadership ability to truly bring a team together enabling a shared focus on objectives, while motivating individual team members toward their personal goals and growth. There are very few leaders I would follow, regardless of the job, and Gilles is one of them. The satisfaction of achieving success in a true team environment was great both professionally, and personally. Gilles understands people and business, and knows how to make those work together.
