Building resilience as a community to collaborate for change

The gender pay gap. Lack of representation in leadership. The Covid-19 Shecession. This week, Joanna Jagger, President and Founder of the Women of Recreation, Tourism & Hospitality (WORTH) Association, joins Beth in the resilience conversation. Joanna will share how she leverages the resilience she’s needed throughout her career as a woman in this industry to advocate for all the women who make up 54% of this industry that will see men 15x more likely to be promoted to an executive leadership role. By connecting and bringing forward the voices of women within this sector, something that had never been done before, WORTH Association has created a community that educates, elevates and empowers members to be in the driver seat of their leadership acceleration. With recreation, tourism & hospitality being the hardest hit by the pandemic, Joanna and the 2000 strong & growing WORTH community across Canada, are focused on getting women back to work and keeping them working. Drawing on their resilience, they are advocating and collaborating as a collective to reshape this industry with a path forward that is in service to all within it. In episode 13 of Resilience & You listen in to learn how you might connect to build resilience within your own community and collaborate for change!
