Firm deepens its advisory offerings for financial services with tiered executive and leadership coaching, succession planning, onboarding, and psychometric assessments.

Massey Henry is pleased to announce a strategic partnership with industry veterans Sébastien Bélair and Dana Zorbas to expand its Leadership Practice.

Building on its recent recognition by The Globe and Mail’s Report on Business as one of Canada’s Top Growing Companies, this collaboration reflects the firm’s continued investment in delivering tailored leadership advisory solutions for financial services clients at all organizational levels.

Mr. Bélair will provide executive coaching focused on C-suite and Board effectiveness, drawing on more than three decades of senior leadership experience in financial services. His background includes serving as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Human Resources Officer at Laurentian Bank, as well as senior leadership roles at National Bank of Canada. Throughout his career, he has led large-scale transformations, governance reviews, and cultural change initiatives — experience that enables him to deliver practical, grounded coaching, HR advisory, and succession planning support to senior leaders navigating similar challenges.

Mr. Bélair is a certified FocalPoint business and executive coach, a member of the International Coaching Federation (ICF), and holds an executive MBA from Queen’s University. He is fully bilingual in English and French.

Ms. Zorbas will provide coaching focused on C-suite, executive-level, and high-potential leaders. With nearly 20 years of executive coaching and leadership consulting experience, as well as depth of expertise in leadership psychology and performance coaching, she has partnered with some of the largest organizations across North America, including global banks, private equity firms, pension funds, and insurers.

Ms. Zorbas holds a master’s degree in industrial-organizational psychology from Harvard University and is an Associate Certified Coach (ACC) with the International Coaching Federation.

Psychometric assessments across all executive engagements will continue to be led by Alex Bunyan, Partner, Leadership Practice, leveraging the globally recognized Hogan methodology.

“Sébastien, Dana, and Alex each bring highly specialized expertise that enhances our ability to support talent advisory and transformation across the financial services sector — at every level of executive leadership,” said Michael Henry, founder and managing partner. “As demand for leadership coaching, succession planning, and onboarding continues to grow, this partnership deepens our industry impact while preserving the clarity and focus of our differentiated offerings.”
