Helen joined the GC in 2010 after 20 years working in non-profit, education, and private sectors.  The transition was HARD.  Since then she’s held 7 roles in 5 different departments (including 3 years with Canada’s Free Agents as a Talent Manager and Free Agent) and has now happily landed at CRA where she’s helping with the digital transformation of HR.  She’s a learning nerd, coach, and evangelist for employee experience and effective talent management, she’s also a part-time instructor for Positive Spaces. Her personal experiences with mobility across the GC coupled with lessons learned from trying to modernize HR have taught her a lot about how to navigate a government career.  Helen loves helping people find their flow state at work. Tweet at her via @freethetalent
