Your community is a collection of everyone in your corner, and for Sally Douglas, Principal - Operations at The Earnescliffe Foundation and Chair of the Women in Communications and Technology’s National Capital Region chapter, she might need a bigger corner.

Sally has an eclectic career, starting out in nursing before u-turning into commercial construction project management. She emigrated to Canada from Scotland with her husband and 2 boys 15 years ago and had to reinvent herself as a construction and engineering recruitment consultant and team manager with Hays international Recruitment before taking another completely different role as Deputy Publisher at iPolitics. Most recently she has joined the Earnscliffe Strategy Group as their Principal Operations to help manage the companies growth and diversification to better serve their clients.

“Knowing your strengths and weaknesses and being upfront and honest about them, is so important because we all bring different things to the table. That's what makes community so important.”

On this week’s THRIVE Podcast, Sally talks about the value of building a community that you can not only pour support into, but have others pour into you as well.
