When Paul Young, COO of the University of PEI Faculty of Medicine, sees an uphill battle, he doesn't turn the other way. His love for healthcare fuels his ability to face a challenge head on, with the outcome rooted in finding solutions collaboratively.

Paul's courageous leadership was witnessed through his support in bringing UPEI's Faculty of Medicine to fruition.

Paul shares key leadership lessons on helping teams feel empowered, how to drive positive partnerships, and navigating intergenerational differences in the workplace.

Having been named one of Atlantic Canada's Top 50 CEOS for a fifth consecutive year, we're not surprised to hear much of Paul's forward-thinking leadership shine through on this episode.
