Episode 5 - A conversation with Gillian Stein, the former CEO of Henry's, interviewed by Eloise Moodie, Partner in Odgers Berndtson's Leadership Advisory Practice
Gillian Stein is the former CEO of Henry’s, Canada’s leading specialty digital imaging retailer. In 2021, Gillian became the first Canadian CEO to publicly announce that they are living with a mental illness, sharing that she had bipolar disorder. Mental illness had been openly discussed in Gillian’s household growing up, but it had become apparent to her how damaging the public stigma and lack of discourse was to those struggling with mental illness. She understood that if she wanted to make a real difference, it was vital for her to be open about her challenges and prove that you can still be successful with a mental illness. With this brave statement, Gillian helped reduce the shame associated with mental illness, knowing it had the potential of putting herself and her company at risk of losing business and stakeholder confidence. Ultimately, it was an effective decision that built trust in her ability to lead authentically and with strong emotional intelligence – a critical skill in today’s leadership capabilities.
