About the series
When it comes to women in business, progress has been made, but the job is not done. That women can, and do, excel in the business world is shown by the three women featured in this series: an engineer by training, Heather Campbell has achieved success in the oil and gas industry; starting out on the front lines of customer service, Teresa Clouston worked her way up to ATB Financial’s executive suite; what began as a passion for building and architecture, Lara Murphy turned to building Calgary’s only female owned commercial construction company.
From the experiences shared with ATB’s Chief Economist Todd Hirsch, it is clear that many challenges remain for women in business. While many organizations have made progress, there is still more to do to dismantle the barriers to equal participation by women in Canada’s economy. The stories and ideas explored in this series help us understand how far we’ve come, where we need to go, and how we can get there.
