Michelle Gagnon joins StrategyCorp after serving for decades in a range of positions as a strategic healthcare and business sector leader. Michelle joins StrategyCorp from the Palix Foundation, an Alberta-based foundation where, as President and CEO, she led initiatives in the related areas of childhood development, addiction, and mental health. Michelle's passion for research has informed policy and practice innovations to improve the health and well-being of individuals, families, communities, and populations.
Michelle boasts a proven track record of leading and motivating teams to deliver collaborative, evidence-informed solutions in complex and multi-stakeholder environments. She has worked with various public and not-for-profit sector organizations throughout her career including the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, Alberta Health Services, as an Adjunct Professor at the Cumming School of Medicine at the University of Calgary, and President and CEO of the Palix Foundation.
