How Shannon is building a better working world
“Heavily involved in leadership activities, whether that be taking a leadership role in EY or on a board (such as the University of Prince Edward Island) or in consulting to executive leaders and those in charge of governance, I bring a strong lens to strategic planning, inclusion, leadership and governance. I bring insights to assist leaders with culture, reconciliation and diversity. When leading or facilitating client sessions, I rely on decades of experience in various business analysis functions with Health and Government & Public Sector clients, to bring innovative solutions to very difficult situations.
I have been continuously evolving the leadership of the digital health sector and driving the innovations and transformations that move digitization forward in an inclusive and citizen-centred manner. ”
