The CWB Association brings you a weekly podcast that connects to welding professionals around the world and unrepresented communities as we continue to strive for a more diverse workforce. Join us as we celebrate Black History Month to learn about the incredible contributions of African, Caribbean, and Black Canadians to the welding industry and our communities.

Embark on a transformative narrative as we sit down with Mohamed Sookwa, whose life story embodies the essence of resilience and the unwavering pursuit of dreams. Mo's journey from humble beginnings in Guyana to braving the challenges of immigration and carving a niche in the welding industry. Throughout the episode, we traverse the path that led Mo to his role at CWB, where he now leads internal training and development programs. The serendipitous twists of fate, like walking into the wrong job interview that ended up being just the right fit, and the enduring dream to join CWB that fueled his ambition for 17 years. His experiences highlight the unexpected opportunities that come from a willingness to adapt and the profound impact of mentorship and networking.
