Look for Strength
Look for Strength tells short stories about strong individuals from around the world.
You'll hear from people who started companies, have saved lives, or have overcome adversity.
Maybe, like me, you feel our world has been turned upside down in the last few years, and sometimes, you just need some strength.
You’ll hear each person share their story and the meaning of strength.
And maybe, in this, you’ll find what makes you strong – and believe you are, and can be more exceptional than you think.

Episode 3: The Strength of Dedication
In Karen Adams' experience working in C-Suite positions across industries and countries, she consistently constructs dynamic teams by inspiring employees and developing leaders.
Having spent the majority of her career internationally in the Middle East, Asia, and Europe, her first role as a CEO was with HSBC in Jordan and Palestine. She's currently the President and CEO of Fundserv, a technology platform in the Canadian investment fund industry that increases the efficiency and effectiveness of business operations. Her accomplishments were recognized as the 2017 winner of Canada’s 100 Most Powerful Women award from the Women’s Executive Network.
I had the privilege of hearing Karen speak at the Queen’s Conference on International Business about her adaptable leadership philosophy; which is rooted in forming one-on-one relationships, collaboration and communication.
In this podcast, I’m thrilled to be speaking with Karen about her secret to strong leadership, advice she has for aspiring leaders, and how she tackles challenges.
