Jacquie Ryan was destined to end up in her current role as Chief Brand & Commercial Officer of the Canadian Olympic Committee.

From growing up in an Olympic family to working as a ski instructor to an internship at a top sports marketing agency, to leading the Olympic portfolio at RBC, and reshaping the philanthropy and sponsorship portfolio at Scotiabank. Yes, Jacquie landed in the perfect role.

We discuss that journey, some of the more noteworthy sponsorship initiatives she has worked on – think Olympic Torch Relay and Scotiabank/MLSE – her mentors and views on leadership.

We also discuss how that leadership was put to the test over these past 2 years and how the COC emerged in great shape.

And we wrap with a look ahead to Beijing 2022 and some terrific professional development advice.

I’ve wanted to have Jacquie on the show since I started my podcast and it was worth the wait. A wonderful chat with an inspiring leader.

I hope you enjoy!
