WNORTH is the vision of Heather Odendaal, an accomplished entrepreneur, brand builder and an acclaimed event producer in Western Canada.
While working as a sales executive at a Fortune 500 company, Heather’s pursuit of finding a leadership conference for women on a path to senior executive leadership fell short. In spring 2015, Heather co-founded the inaugural WNORTH Conference with her husband Mike to support women on their leadership journey.
Regular event speakers include executives from CISCO, PwC and Amazon. In 2018, the Members’ Club at WNORTH was launched to support the growing community of female executives and provide them with networking opportunities and resources to support their leadership journey. In April 2020, the Membership rapidly expanded to support the growing need for online community support women in leadership.
Develop more women to leading positions in business, and in doing so we will elevate the teams they work in, the families they lead and the communities in which they live.
Facilitating a powerful membership community that supports a diverse group of women on their leadership journey. We curate content and personal development around our foundation pillars which aim to accelerate growth, promote balance, establish connections that matter, and inspire change
