Lise Plante
A word from the executive director
As chair of the board of directors of the Héma-Québec Foundation, it is with immense pride and great joy that I announce the appointment of Ms. Lise Plante to the position of executive director. This appointment represents a significant step in our journey, and I am delighted to welcome a woman of heart and commitment at the head of our organization. Ms. Plante, who holds an MBA from HEC Montréal, has distinguished herself through her successes in various sectors, from retail to philanthropy, including social economy.
She has more than 20 years of experience in the fields of communications, marketing and public relations. Her professional career is marked by her ability to develop strategies to achieve business objectives, as well as the preparation and implementation of marketing and communication plans. She is also recognized for her management of advertising campaigns, her relations with the media, her strategic monitoring of trends and her contribution to the creation of signature events. Lise also stands out for her ability to form lasting partnerships and mobilize human resources towards common objectives.
Her commitment to noble causes was notably demonstrated during her time as director of communications at the Montreal Heart Institute Foundation as well as at the University of Montreal Hospital Center Foundation. Her results demonstrate her commitment and understanding of philanthropic issues. We are convinced that Madame Plante will be a driving force for the Héma-Québec Foundation. Her leadership will bring a new energy and a clear vision to our mission. She perfectly embodies our dynamism, which makes her an ideal choice to lead our organization to new heights.
We are enthusiastic about her arrival, and would invite you to please join me in congratulating her warmly and wishing her all the best in her new role. Ms. Sophie English President of the Board of Directors of the Héma-Québec Foundation. #hemaquebecfoundation
