General (Ret.) Rick Hillier, OC, CM

General Hillier was Canada’s Chief of the Defence Staff from February 2005 until his retirement in July 2008.  General Hillier commanded troops from platoon to multinational levels in Canada, Europe, Southwest Asia, and the United States, and has served as a staff officer at the tactical, operational, and strategic levels. 

As a Principal with Massey Advisory, General Hillier brings an uncanny level of experience that clients depend upon. With his vast network of contacts in militaries and governments around the world, Hillier brings perspective on how key decision makers think and has an uncanny ability to make introductions.  He guides clients at various levels on how to structure deals, how to resolve disputes and position clients early on with decision makers so that they can seize on a deal when the opportunity arises.
