Bring on 2021!

This week on the podcast, Ben is joined by Kate Kenny, VP, Head of Sales for the UK and Ireland, P&PS at Jacobs . We get to hear Kate's story and some advice we could all use no matter how long or short our careers are so far. This pandemic has allowed her to think critically about some pieces of “wisdom” she has received over the years. Ben and Kate discuss how now more than ever leadership is changing and how important it is that we create an environment where we can bring our whole selves to work.

Today is Remembrance Day, also known as Veterans Day if you're in the United States. It's a pretty special day for all of us. It's a day we get to take a step back and think of those that sacrificed to create the world we have a chance to live in. Last year, Ben recorded this episode that starts off by sharing his family story on how he ultimately ended up in Canada and the shaping of his family's future.

In today's episode, Ben is joined by Katus Watson, VP and Geographic Operations Manager for Puerto Rico and Florida P&PS. Earlier this summer, Katus lead the effort to establish an action plan for social injustice and equality known now as the TogetherBeyond Global Action Plan for Advancing Justice & Equality. We get to know Katus’ story, dive into what has been going on around us, and what it took personally and professionally for Katus to make such an impact across our organization. Katus is a true leader with lessons for us all. We hope you enjoy today’s episode as much as we do.

In today's episode, we have serial entrepreneur and racial equality advocate, Nicole McKinney. At the top of Nicole's vast resume, is her non-profit organization, Waking the unConscious, where their mission is to encourage and create a greater understanding of societal differences created by Privilege and Marginalization and to continuously develop innovative initiatives that create sustainable behavioural and relational changes in individuals and organizations. Ben and Nicole share an impactful conversation on anti-racism in Canada and the United States with a focus on corporate responsibility and engagement in these social issues.
