HR Expert Track ∙ The 2025 Journey Begins with Anne Sixou’s Conference

From classroom learning to real-world HR practice — our HR Expert Track is back!
The first conference of this year’s series brought our M1 BA – IHRM students face to face with an HR professional whose international journey offered both insight and inspiration.

Through vivid examples and open discussion, Anne Sixou – invited by Dr. Rebecca Dickason, M1 IHRM program director – shared what it truly means to work as a bilingual HR Business Partner in Canada — from strategic collaboration and talent management to navigating legal and cultural nuances in fast-changing environments.

Students gained first-hand insight into the realities of global HR roles — balancing compliance and empathy, structure and agility.

Heartfelt thanks to Anne for sharing such an engaging and authentic perspective, and to our students for their curiosity and thoughtful participation throughout the session.

The HR Expert Track continues to build bridges between theory and practice — one conversation at a time, connecting future HR professionals with the voices and experiences that shape international HR today.
