About Maple Tam

maple.tam@cibcmellon.com cibcmellon.com Driving Business Transformation Through People Strategy and Human Connection. As a Human Resources executive, I build strong, trusted relationships and lead with empathy, clarity, and purpose. With experience across the financial, retail, and technology sectors, I offer a broad perspective on solving complex challenges for people and organizations. Business strategy comes alive through people. My commitment lies in helping organizations achieve their goals by building high-performing teams and fostering environments where individuals feel valued and motivated to perform their best. I focus on various approaches to strategic talent attraction and retention and have successfully led the people components of numerous business transformations, including M&A and culture shifts that have redefined how teams work and connect. Pragmatic and employee-oriented, I provide solid, practical advice that leaders can rely on. I am recognized for achieving results and my ability to manage multiple initiatives with care and integrity. Whether leading talent strategies, M&A integration, or change initiatives, I approach each challenge with composure and accountability. Currently, I oversee the human resources strategy at CIBC Mellon, where I have been since 2006, developing and implementing the organization’s talent management plan. I have created frameworks to attract, retain, and motivate top talent while continuously shaping people strategies that support the company’s growth and transformation. I believe that employees are critical to success. When we genuinely value their contributions, we cultivate a culture of trust and exceptional performance. I collaborate closely with business leaders to ensure that our people strategies align with strategic plans. My commitment to delivering results with integrity, building trusted relationships, and creating workplaces where people can flourish drives my work. maple.tam@cibcmellon.com
