The rapid spread and severity of COVID-19 has meant sweeping changes in all aspects of human life; not least our lives at work. In the first of a special Bold(h)er series on women who are leading innovation in the face of the pandemic, HR lawyer and consultant Laura Williams joins Lisa for a candid discussion on how to hire, lead, and lay off in the face of COVID-19. From leading with fairness to finding support networks to alternatives to termination, their discussion is what every business owner needs to hear in these uncertain times: that you’re definitely not alone. About the show: Brought to you by BMO for Women and hosted by journalist and award-winning entrepreneur Lisa Bragg, Bold(h)er delivers thought-provoking conversations that inspire listeners to make their own bold moves in business and in life.

The Continued Resilience of Canadian Small Business

Bold(h)er shares stories of and for women who stand out. Our guests are entrepreneurs, executives, celebrities, innovators, mothers, and philanthropists; what unites them is their transformative journeys and bold, life-changing decisions, ones that are equally, but uniquely, compelling. Bold(h)er is boldness redefined: sometimes it’s the boldness to leave a difficult situation or to care for yourself or a loved one, as much as it is the traditional boldness of starting or advancing in business.
