Business:Entrepreneurship
Thank you for listening to the Leaders, Innovators and Big Ideas podcast, supported by Rainforest Alberta. The podcast that highlights those people who are contributing to and/or supporting the innovation ecosystem in Alberta.
Al Del Degan I have been involved in software development for more than 25 years. I have started companies, lead companies and worked for companies - doing many different things. I am honored to be considered a leader in Alberta's innovation ecosystem, and I give back as much, and often as I can. When I am not working or podcasting, you will find me pursuing my passions of photography, crypto investing, and wood working along with the occasional round of golf.
Margo Purcell I help organizations and teams to uncover hidden talent; and generate ideas that lead to transformational change . Creative, driven and engaging learning and development professional with over 18 years of progressive achievement in training and development, consulting, public engagement, advocacy, customer service and coaching. As a skilled leader with an established reputation for creating environments for executive teams to shift perspectives; trusted advisor for major corporations to facilitate discussions that lead to achieving desired results in complex and distributed corporate environments. Energy, Higher Education, Not-For-Profit, NGO and other large-scale organizations say; "Margo's presence and facilitation skills were able to help us get unstuck and to clearly see where our team's landscape had to shift and most importantly helped us figure out how to shift it".

Show Summary
Al chats with Margo about her childhood as a shy, but curious kid always exploring a path of self-discovery. Armed with a growth mindset and insatiable curiosity, with the help of some wonderful mentors along the way, Margo found her calling as a facilitator and coach helping companies get their teams working smoothly and communicating effectively.
Show Quote:
"This is the difference in how a company performs or not, how their employees engage, or not. We saw that this was what was really, really needed and we needed to be able to think differently to create the solutions that we need for the challenges we face."
"It's okay to follow what comes easily to you because it is likely to be meaningful, engaging, and you're going to deliver fantastic value for others."
