Mélanie Joly | Minister of Tourism, Official Languages and La Francophonie of Canada
Melanie Joly was 34 when she ran for mayor in Montreal's municipal elections (she came in close second at the polls) and was 36 when she was elected to the House of Commons and named Minister of Heritage Canada by Justin Trudeau. She is a born leader and visionary who is not afraid of tackling difficult issues. In this episode of The Brand is Female she speaks to Host Eva Hartling about what got her inspired to start a career in politics, how she relies on her intuition as a guiding force today, her views on leadership... and her boss’ leadership style (that would be the Prime Minister of Canada!) and how being a young woman in politics—or in a boardroom—comes with its own set of challenges.
