Trudeau: Women Executives Have Had to ‘Overcome Significant Barriers’

EXCERPT:

TRUDEAU: "Whenever I sit down with a woman executive, I know that she has had to overcome significant barriers that exist, and therefore is likely to have greater insight into help reduce those barriers for others but also the formidable contributor to the success of the business and her economy so I think for me, it’s not just about doing the right thing, it’s about understanding that women in leadership positions is a very powerful leverage for success for business, for communities and for our entire economy."
