About Robert St-Jacques and 7Geese
Originally hailing from a small town in northern Ontario, Canada, Robert has lived and worked all over the world including the USA, the Caribbean, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and SE Asia. When asked about himself and what he does, Robert says, “People, Performance, and Culture Optimisation – with a healthy side of science. Essentially, a people nerd.”
Over 25 years ago, Bob chose to have a Mission rather than decide what he wanted to “do” or “be” when he grew up. That Mission was and is: Make companies work better for everyone: Employees, Organisations, Communities, and the World!
Since planting his Mission stake firmly in the ground, Bob has attempted to achieve its lofty ambitions as a Labour and Employment Lawyer, HR Leader (From HR Manager to Global Head of HR), University Professor, People and Culture Consultant, Executive Training Facilitator, Strategy Consultant, Change and Transformation Leader, International Conference Keynote Speaker and chairperson, and now as Director of Customer Success and Professional Services for a Continuous Performance Management Tech Company.
