Listen Later

How do you build a business culture that supports people, succeeds financially, and lasts for decades?

 

Today we're exploring how CGI – a leading IT and business process services provider – established a culture more than 40 years ago that still appeals to younger generations and helps CGI adapt over time.

 

Bernard Labelle is Senior Vice-President of Global HR at CGI. He shares insight and examples showing how CGI was founded on belief in its people, how it balances the needs of its professionals, clients and shareholders, and why ethics and respect for diversity matter just as much today as they did to CGI's founders in 1976.

 

You will discover:

  • Why CGI's 40-plus year-old culture is still appealing to young talent
  • Why CGI has members, not employees
  • How CGI has stayed focused on people and how this has helped fuel its growth for over 40 years
