“You can be anything you dream of being.” This is the mantra that we hear throughout our childhoods and we set our sights on lofty goals.
Becoming Mayor to a medium-sized city may not have been something that Marianne Meed Ward specifically wanted to be as a child. What she DID know was that she wanted to make the world a better place. She wanted to help people. Support people. Create a healthy and respectful community in which she and everyone else would comfortably live.
Today we have the honour of connecting with Burlington, Ontario Mayor, Marianne Meed Ward about the ins and outs, pros and challenges of being a woman in a man-centred role and succeeding wildly at it!
