Daniel Payette

Daniel is a Director on the Leadership, Assessment and Development team. Before joining Optimum Talent, Daniel held various roles at the University Hospital of Montreal including organizational development consultant, training consultant, and head of the Training and Continuing Professional Development department. He was at the helm of this service during the major transformation of the facility that led to the merger of three hospital sites into a single mega-hospital of 12,000 employees and 5,180 trainees. These experiences have allowed him to develop solid expertise in complex organizational changes and staff training in a context of uncertainty. Daniel now applies this expertise to serve other organizations through his consulting work.

Daniel works with organizations to create the conditions to develop learning-based cultures that are more agile in dealing with uncertainties. He loves complex mandates and firmly believes that it is possible to have fun at work, even in the face of adversity.

Daniel holds a doctorate degree in organizational psychology from University of Sherbrooke and is a member of the Order of Quebec psychologists. He is passionate about business development and learning at all levels.
