Recognizing leadership, together with HEC Montréal AÉMBA. 🎓🎉
What a night celebrating the HEC Montréal AÉMBA community!
On August 12, we joined the 2026 MBA Community Gala at 360 St-Jacques - a historic Montréal landmark that once housed the Royal Bank - for an evening honouring the students and professionals shaping the future of business leadership.
As a proud partner of HEC Montréal AÉMBA, Stephan Charbonnier had the honour of presenting the Engaged Leadership Award, recognizing an outstanding contribution to the MBA community. Congratulations to this year’s recipient, Benoit Laplante!
The evening was also particularly meaningful for Armstrong, as our own Anne-Marie St-Pierre, CRHA, Branch Director for Québec, is graduating from the HEC Montréal MBA program this year. Her journey reflects something we strongly believe in: leadership is built through continuous learning, curiosity, and a willingness to keep growing.
A special thank you to Mathieu Valade, CPA, for sponsoring Armstrong’s participation in this wonderful event and for supporting our involvement with the MBA community.
Thank you as well to the entire AÉMBA team for another memorable evening.
Supporting the next generation of management talent - while celebrating the development of leaders within our own organization - is something we’re proud to be part of. We’re already looking forward to what’s next.
