Run It Like a Girl with Heather Odendaal, CEO and Co-Founder of WNorth, Season 4, Episode 1

Run it Like a Girl

Heather Odendaal is the CEO and Co-Founder of WNorth, an organization that connects and offers development opportunities for mid-management women with an upward career trajectory. Heather started WNorth in 2015 after unsuccessfully seeking out a conference where she could network with like minded women. Heather says WNorth’s membership grew enormously during the pandemic as women sought a community more than ever.

On this episode of Run It Like a Girl, Heather talks about flexible work models and other initiatives corporations will need to take if they hope to attract and retain top talent.

And Heather has some great advice for would-be entrepreneurs….work for someone else first before launching your business.
