La CSMC et CM sont déterminées à reconnaître les erreurs du passé et les défis du présent, et à contribuer à une nouvelle relation équitable avec les peuples autochtones.
La CSMC est l’un des organes de santé mentale les plus influents dans le monde. Nous générons des changements importants et réels au moyen d’initiatives qui soutiennent les gens dans leur communauté, notamment la prévention du suicide, l’accès à des services de santé mentale de grande qualité et adaptés à la culture et la santé et la sécurité psychologiques en milieu de travail. De plus, nos travaux de recherche et de politique visent à combler des lacunes dans les services de santé mentale du Canada dans le but d’assurer de meilleurs résultats de santé pour tous.
Changer les mentalités est une entreprise à vocation sociale sans but lucratif qui offre de la formation et des outils pour parler de la santé mentale, changer les attitudes négatives et lutter contre la stigmatisation associée à la maladie mentale. Créée par la CSMC, Changer les mentalités est la plus vaste initiative systématique d’élimination de la stigmatisation jamais entreprise au Canada. Alors que ces deux organisations continuent d’évoluer pour répondre aux besoins en santé mentale diversifiés et urgents au Canada, la Commission est à la recherche d’une présidente et directrice générale ou d’un président et directeur général (PDG) dynamique et visionnaire pour faire progresser sa mission critique et ses priorités stratégiques.
Le ou la PDG relève directement du conseil d’administration de la CSMC et de CM et est le leader stratégique et opérationnel de l’organisation. Il ou elle est responsable d’établir une orientation claire, d’harmoniser les ressources et de favoriser une culture axée sur l’innovation et la collaboration. Il ou elle se fait le champion ou la championne de la transformation locale et nationale et des innovations numériques en matière de soins de santé mentale en proposant des solutions évolutives fondées sur des données probantes, tout en plaidant pour un meilleur accès, de meilleurs résultats et des normes de soins efficaces. En cultivant de solides relations avec les décideurs, les communautés autochtones, les chefs de file de l’industrie et d’autres partenaires de la communauté et du secteur, le ou la PDG rehausse le profil de la Commission et fait avancer ses valeurs et sa stratégie.
En tant que candidat·e idéal·e, vous êtes un leader stimulant qui collabore bien, favorise l’autonomisation et est tourné vers l’avenir. Vous êtes connu·e pour encourager les équipes performantes et obtenir des résultats mesurables. Vous communiquez dans les deux langues de manière convaincante et vous savez représenter et défendre les priorités d’une organisation auprès du gouvernement, des communautés autochtones et d’autres partenaires nationaux et internationaux. Vous avez fait vos preuves en matière de croissance et de réussite d’entreprise et vous manifestez une diplomatie, un jugement et une clairvoyance exceptionnels dans l’entretien de partenariats et d’ententes durables et exploitables. Votre style de leadership témoigne d’un solide engagement envers la réconciliation, la diversité, l’équité et l’inclusion.

The Head Office of the Mental Health Commission of Canada (MHCC) and Opening Minds (OM) is located on the unceded, traditional Territory of the Algonquin Anishinaabe Nation, in what is now called Ottawa, Ontario. The MHCC/OM is committed to recognizing the errors of the past, acknowledging the challenges of the present, and contributing to a new and equitable relationship with the First Peoples.
The MHCC is one of the most influential mental health bodies in the world, delivering real and meaningful change through initiatives that support people in their communities, suicide prevention, access to high quality, culturally appropriate mental health services, workplace and psychological health and safety and more. Through research and policy, the MHCC addresses gaps in Canada’s mental health services to provide better outcomes for all.
OM is a not-for-profit social enterprise that provides training and the tools to talk about mental health, change negative attitudes, and reduce stigma related to mental illness. OM was established by the MHCC and is the largest systematic effort in Canadian history focused on eliminating stigma. As these two organizations continue to evolve to meet the diverse and pressing mental health needs of people in Canada, the Commission seeks a dynamic and visionary President and Chief Executive Officer (PCEO) to advance its critical mission and strategic priorities.
Reporting directly to the MHCC and OM Board of Directors, the PCEO is the organization’s strategic and operational leader, responsible for setting clear direction, aligning resources, and fostering a culture of innovation and collaboration. The PCEO champions local and national transformation and digital innovations in mental health care, driving evidence-based, scalable solutions while advocating for greater access, improved outcomes, and meaningful standards of care. By cultivating strong relationships with policymakers, Indigenous communities, industry leaders, and other community and sector partners, the PCEO amplifies the Commission’s profile and advances its values and strategy.
As an ideal candidate, you are a nurturing, collaborative, empowering, and forward-thinking leader, known for fostering high-performing teams and driving measurable results. You are a persuasive, bilingual communicator, adept at representing and advocating for organizational priorities with government, Indigenous communities, and other national and international partners.

Your leadership style demonstrates a strong commitment to reconciliation, diversity, equity, and inclusion.

La CSMC et CM sont déterminées à reconnaître les erreurs du passé et les défis du présent, et à contribuer à une nouvelle relation équitable avec les peuples autochtones.
La CSMC est l’un des organes de santé mentale les plus influents dans le monde.

De plus, nos travaux de recherche et de politique visent à combler des lacunes dans les services de santé mentale du Canada dans le but d’assurer de meilleurs résultats de santé pour tous.
Changer les mentalités est une entreprise à vocation sociale sans but lucratif qui offre de la formation et des outils pour parler de la santé mentale, changer les attitudes négatives et lutter contre la stigmatisation associée à la maladie mentale. Créée par la CSMC, Changer les mentalités est la plus vaste initiative systématique d’élimination de la stigmatisation jamais entreprise au Canada. Alors que ces deux organisations continuent d’évoluer pour répondre aux besoins en santé mentale diversifiés et urgents au Canada, la Commission est à la recherche d’une présidente et directrice générale ou d’un président et directeur général (PDG) dynamique et visionnaire pour faire progresser sa mission critique et ses priorités stratégiques.

Il ou elle se fait le champion ou la championne de la transformation locale et nationale et des innovations numériques en matière de soins de santé mentale en proposant des solutions évolutives fondées sur des données probantes, tout en plaidant pour un meilleur accès, de meilleurs résultats et des normes de soins efficaces. En cultivant de solides relations avec les décideurs, les communautés autochtones, les chefs de file de l’industrie et d’autres partenaires de la communauté et du secteur, le ou la PDG rehausse le profil de la Commission et fait avancer ses valeurs et sa stratégie.
En tant que candidat·e idéal·e, vous êtes un leader stimulant qui collabore bien, favorise l’autonomisation et est tourné vers l’avenir. Vous êtes connu·e pour encourager les équipes performantes et obtenir des résultats mesurables. Vous communiquez dans les deux langues de manière convaincante et vous savez représenter et défendre les priorités d’une organisation auprès du gouvernement, des communautés autochtones et d’autres partenaires nationaux et internationaux.

Votre style de leadership témoigne d’un solide engagement envers la réconciliation, la diversité, l’équité et l’inclusion.
