@laurageier
Experienced Human Resources leader committed to continuous improvement.
I am a Human Resources and Labour Relations leader with a passion for fostering authentic relationships and driving organizational success. My journey has been marked by a commitment to continuous improvement and a deep understanding of the people behind the business. As a trusted Business Partner, I prioritize trust, transparency, and vulnerability in my leadership approach.
Throughout my career, I have held pivotal roles, including Director of People Operations at Mark Anthony Group, where I led significant initiatives that contributed to the company's hypergrowth from 800 to 2600 team members globally. My strategic planning and leadership have resulted in improved workplace culture, increased employee engagement, and a remarkable decrease in turnover rates. I am proud of my achievements in developing long-term labour relations strategies and leading successful collective bargaining efforts.
My experience at Hootsuite Media Inc. further honed my skills in organizational development and employee engagement, where I partnered with C-level executives to navigate significant changes and drive accountability. I am dedicated to creating a positive impact through innovative HR practices and am excited about the opportunity to contribute to a forward-thinking organization.
