The consultant will be in charge of facilitating organizational transformation through active collaboration with all internal and external stakeholders and by working closely with all specialists including project managers, organizational performance consultants, physicians, Leadership Team members and executives.

The consultant will work to foster the enhancement of the knowledge and skills of staff and other stakeholders regarding changes that involve them, to support the rapid adoption of improvements and a learning organization culture. This work will require the consultant to provide extensive mentorship and demonstrate leadership skills while developing a personalized approach based on the unique needs of individuals and groups.

Based on engaging facilitation approaches, the consultant will be responsible for planning and leading consultation sessions with a view to applying all the assessment tools in engagement and change management.
