- [Sascha Boulet\-Devost: Atlantic Business Magazine’s 2026 CEO of the Year](https://wallacemccaininstitute.com/2026/07/02/sascha-boulet-devost-atlantic-business-magazines-2026-ceo-of-the-year/): “Accidental entrepreneur” Sascha Boulet\-Devost is Atlantic Business Magazine’s 2026 CEO of the Year\.

“I’m a practitioner,” 38\-year\-old Sascha Boulet\-Devost says about half a dozen times during our interview, a week after she was named Atlantic Business Magazine’s CEO of the Year\.

Sure, she may be an award\-winning CEO, overseeing some 80 employees and five Capture Therapeutics clinics in two provinces\. And yes, she has a string of honours—from McMaster University, CBDC Atlantic, the Wallace McCain Institute and more\. But even though she’s widely recognized for her business leadership, it’s the values she learned as a practicing physiotherapist that underpin much of her work\.

Just a few days after winning the region’s highest honour for corporate leadership excellence, Boulet\-Devost was back in the clinic for a week, treating patients\. This interview, we were told, would have to wait until her clinical responsibilities were over \(it did\)\.

Normally, she does four days of clinical work a month\. But with a therapist on maternity leave, she’s stepped in and taken on more\. “I usually try to only do four days a month to keep my relevance, keep my ethics, keep my license,” she says, with a laugh\. “But right now, I’m doing about eight extra days and it’s totally taking over my life\.”

On those days, CEO Sascha takes a back seat to physiotherapist Sascha\.
