Being part of the MCM program was a time of significant professional growth for me. I was able to learn from some of Canada’s most influential and important communicators, many of whom I now call friends and colleagues. The program enhanced my reputation as a professional communicator and opened doors to new job opportunities. I am proud to step into my new leadership role with CAE and to be carrying forward my academic learnings to McGill, where I have the opportunity to teach a new generation of professional communicators.

The MCM program expanded my thinking and gave me foundational, theoretical knowledge that has helped me become a strategic communications management professional. It taught me to adopt systems-level thinking, use two-way communications to advance the business objectives of an organization, and help constituents and stakeholders connect on a sense of shared purpose and values. All of this is essential to generating the goodwill, trust and support that builds and protects an institution’s reputation.

The MCM program exposed me to an area of communications that I would have otherwise likely never considered.
