About Chantelle M.
The companies that win the next decade will be the ones that figure out how to build organizations that actually work not just for today\'s complexity, but for what\'s coming.That\'s the problem I work on. As CPO at Brooklinen and across my career, Thinx, 360i, startups, agencies, I\'ve built and rebuilt the people systems, leadership structures, and operating foundations that let ambitious companies perform. I work with CEOs and Boards on the hard questions: how do we organize for growth? How do we develop leaders who can carry more? How do we build a culture that\'s real, not performative? And increasingly: how do we think about our people and our talent as AI changes what work actually is?I don\'t think of myself as an HR leader. I think of myself as someone who happens to be an expert in the most important and most underestimated part of any business — its people.Brooklyn-based. Originally from Australia. Deeply interested in what\'s next.
