Jaime Leverton - CEO at Hut 8 Mining Corp.

I have an exciting Fearless guest for you today! I’ve been a fan
girl since I first met her - years ago -  when I was Board
Chair of Women in Communications and Technology in Canada, and
she had already stacked up a ton of well deserved accolades. I’m
talking about Jaime Leverton.  


Jamie is the CEO of the publicly listed bitcoin mining company
HUT 8.  She's been a driving force behind the operational
re-imagining of some of Canada’s most important tech companies,
with senior executive roles at; eStruxture, Cogeco Peer 1,
National Bank, BlackBerry, Bell Canada, and IBM Canada. She’s an
avid runner, a mom, and a volunteer serving on boards including:
Stratford Festival, Technation and more!


Hear some wisdom from Jaime Leverton at 15:54


"What I realized was, I had never done any networking. I didn't
have relationships outside of that IBM bubble. And really, I felt
alone a bit. And I had to think of myself and my career in a
whole new way, and in a very self centered way. And so, rather
than thinking about how I'm going to get the next promotion, and
having that world view be how other people look at me, I flipped
it, and all of the ownership became my own, and how was I going
to drive myself to the new opportunity, and have people want me
on their team and want me in a leadership role."
