Catherine Tremblay: Culture and values you can feel
Catherine Tremblay (she/her) has built her career on shared values, genuine connection, and a culture rooted in collaboration, respect, and inclusion. When people see their values reflected in the environment around them, it fosters trust, strengthens commitment, and makes showing up every day feel meaningful.
When Catherine joined MNP through a merger in 2011, the firm’s culture didn’t take long to shine through. She reflected, “When I went to my first Annual General Meeting (AGM) in Calgary, I felt genuinely welcomed. There was no hierarchy, just openness and real connection.”
"Culture isn’t something just found in a handbook. It’s something you experience — and it’s up to all of us to keep it alive.”
One story that stayed with her came from a Partner who described MNP’s secret sauce as being like his grandmother’s apple pie — it’s not just about the ingredients but how everything comes together. “That stuck with me. It captured what makes MNP different — the way we support one another and create something greater than the sum of its parts.”
Now a Partner in Business Valuation and Litigation Support in Montréal, Catherine carries that recipe forward with her team. “Culture isn’t something just found in a handbook. It’s something you experience — and it’s up to all of us to keep it alive.”
MNP operates as one firm/one pot/one team, embracing a collaborative spirit in everything we do. Whether it’s a Partner in Toronto or a team member in the Prairies offering insight on a file in Quebec, support is always just a phone call away. “We don’t compete internally. We build each other up. That’s how we serve our clients better, too.”
Team connection is no accident. Catherine has championed a people-first culture that goes beyond the day-to-day. “Every year, our team heads to Charlevoix for a retreat, it’s a chance to connect, learn, and unwind together. Everyone looks forward to it — and talks about it for months after,” she says with a smile.
Catherine’s display of openness, trust, and collaboration continues to shape MNP’s culture by creating opportunities for people to grow their skills, lean on one another, and create an environment where team members thrive.
