Meet Brice
My superpower is leading cross-functional teams to row in the same direction. I breakdown silos, improve collaboration, and connect strategy to implementation outcomes. Comfortable with ambiguity, I have a bias for action and know how to get things done.I am an experienced generalist and entrepreneurial leader with an ability to dive deeply into many different organization functions including operations, product, people, business development, program / project management and more.Over 20 years of technology consulting experience at Esri Canada and T4G with past 5 years in leadership roles at early-stage startups in HealthTech (HomeEXCEPT, The Rounds) and ClimateTech (agkinex, KlimaDAO, Carbonmark). I am a PMI Project Management Professional (PMP) and Kanban Management Professional (KMP).Throughout my career, considered a thoughtful and natural leader with an ability to actively engage stakeholders, peers, and teams to ensure everyone works together towards a shared vision and common goal.
