In the fall of 2015, Sarah Jamer, BComm’16, had an eye-opening experience. She and 29 other female student leaders from post-secondary institutions across Canada were invited to be part of the inaugural BMO Millennial Advisory Council.
The Council was formed as a joint initiative between the Bank of Montreal and Catalyst Canada—the leading non-profit organization advancing women and inclusive workplaces. The idea was that millennials, a group which is projected to make up to 50% of the workforce by 2020, should be involved in shaping a corporate culture that embraces and reflects the importance of equality, inclusivity, and diversity.
