Today we are sitting down with Mary Smith. Mary is the Executive Director of the Association of Registered Nurses of Manitoba. With extensive experience in healthcare administration, leadership, research, education, policy, and clinical practice, she has hands on experience leading groups through complex change and empowering others in the achievement of a shared vision.
In our conversation today we cover everything from the biggest lesson Mary learned working with northern Indigenous communities, the situation that challenged her values and inspired her to do graduate studies, the value and role of professional associations in leadership, and finally, Mary's thoughts on being part of the solution.
