Unlock & Transform
your Career
My name is Denis Gaudreault. After retiring in October 2024 as the Country Manager of Intel Canada, I realized my passion for helping others develop their careers remained strong. Consequently, I decided to launch engeenia, a new venture focused on career development, aimed at helping individuals overcome challenges and achieve their professional goals.
Are you facing any of these challenges?
Feeling Stuck Despite Hard Work
You put in long hours and give your best effort, but progress seems elusive. Despite your dedication, you feel like you're not moving forward, and your goals remain out of reach. This can be frustrating and demotivating, making it hard to stay motivated and focused.
Lack of Recognition
You consistently deliver high-quality work and go above and beyond your duties, yet your efforts go unnoticed. This lack of acknowledgment can lead to feelings of undervaluation and resentment, impacting your overall job satisfaction and morale.
Not Receiving the Raise, Promotion, or Desired Roles
You've been performing exceptionally well and meeting or exceeding expectations, but your compensation and career advancement don't reflect your contributions. Despite having the necessary skills and experience, you're finding it challenging to secure the positions you aspire to.
Career Roadmap...What?
You're seeking ways to advance your career and establish a robust professional network but it's not clear for you how to do this. How you identify growth opportunities, acquiring new skills, and connecting with influential individuals in your industry to enhance your career prospects.
Remote Work Hindering Career Growth
Working remotely has its benefits, but you feel it might be limiting your career progression. The lack of in-person interactions and visibility can make it harder to build relationships, gain recognition, and access opportunities for advancement.

Meet our Chief Empowerment Officer
Denis Gaudreault is a seasoned executive with over 30 years of experience in the technology industry. He recently retired as the Country Manager of Intel Canada, a position he held for eight years. Throughout his career, Denis has demonstrated exceptional leadership and a deep understanding of the tech landscape. His journey from a small-town upbringing in Quebec, Canada to leading a major tech company is a testament to his dedication and expertise. Denis's passion for innovation and his commitment to fostering talent have left a lasting impact on the industry.
Career Journey Highlights
Born and raised in a small town in Quebec, Canada, Denis began his career at McDonald's, cooking burgers.
In 1993, he graduated as a Mechanical Engineer and worked for two years at a plastics corporation, designing plastic parts for snowmobiles.
From 1995 to 2000, Denis worked at an IT integrator, building PCs and installing networks.
In 2000, after completing his MBA he began his journey at Intel as a Networking Engineer.
For the first 10 years, he held only two roles. He applied for 14 different positions within Intel and didn't get any of them
It was a very frustrating time, and he blamed the entire world for it! He felt his English skills were lacking, and the fact that he was working remotely, far from any Intel office, might have been one of the reasons.
He was working extremely hard, delivering results, and meeting expectations, but nothing was going the way he wanted.
In early 2010, he realized that what he had been doing in his career was no longer working. He decided to study the corporate world, including all the key moving parts, functions, processes, and how people make decisions. This was when he began experimenting on himself, his colleagues, and his friends.
The outcome of his transformation has been staggering. Over the next 15 years, he held six different roles, including three managerial positions, with assignments in Portland, Arizona, Washington DC, and France, ultimately culminating in his role as Intel Canada's Country Manager.
In October 2024, after retiring from Intel, Denis reflected on his career and realized his passion for helping others develop their careers was still very strong. This led him to embark on a new entrepreneurial venture focused on career development. Leveraging his extensive experience, Denis aims to utilize the system he built for himself and shared with thousands of individuals throughout his career. His goal is to help people overcome common career challenges and achieve their professional goals through practical, actionable tactics and strategies.
