On this episode of The Ampersand: Unplugged, we sit down with Deborah Yedlin, President and CEO of the Calgary Chamber of Commerce. Deborah shares with us her views on why “silence is violence,” why you can never take no for an answer and the irrevocable gift of education. We talk about breaking the “pale, stale and male” stereotype as both a Chamber and as a city and we talk about the future of talent in Alberta. And once we source that talent, how do we then make these “digital nomads” feel welcome here. Deborah shares her optimism around silos coming down and collaboration going up, the importance of tuning out the Eeyores and looking at what’s possible rather than fixating on the obstacles. She concludes her time with us making a bold prediction for 2022 so you’ll have to stick around until the end to find out! And, as always, our co-hosts finish this episode off with an Ask The Expert Q & A!
