President to President – CP1’s Jaime Leverton on ‘following her gut’ at work

In the latest episode of our President to President interview series, Cogeco Peer 1 General Manager and Vice-President of Canada and APAC Jaime Leverton speaks about CP1’s company culture and her strategy to take a more regional view of the interconnection and data centre provider’s business. Leverton tells ITWC President Fawn Annan about her leadership style and how she makes it a point to be the same person at work as she is at home. It was a gamble, but it works well for Leverton and she feels a better letter as a result. As a rare women executive in the tech industry, Leverton tries to focus on young women and mentoring them about how they can achieve their goals. She also shares her own secret for work-life balance as a business executive.
