Catherine Cano - Founder and CEO of CanoVision

My guest today is Catherine Cano - Founder and CEO of Canovision.
So much has happened in her career since she joined me on show
back in 2019, when she was the CEO of CPAC.


In this episode Catherine talks  about leadership in times
of crisis, through her experiences as a fearless COO of a large
global organization. We also discuss what the future of work
needs to look like, as more people are vaccinated around the
world, and slowly some countries are beginning to open up. It's
great to think about the lessons learned so far from these
challenging times.


At 6:02 min in, hear Catherine Cano share the experience of Covid
19 becoming a global pandemic.


"Ya, I'd been actually traveling for three weeks, and landing in
Burkina Faso, a little small country in the west of the
continent. They took our temperature, and gave us hand sanitizer.
And it was funny for me  because I had just spoken to the
headquarter in Paris, where things were good, ya know, we had one
or two cases... there was no sense of emergency. And then
suddenly in those countries they were actually careful,
preventive. So it told me that  their instincts were right,
And so, I came back to Paris and decided to create what we call a
crisis cell."
