What really goes on in government?

My conversation on the Winning in Winnipeg podcast with business consultant Sandra Hodzic is incredibly eye-opening.

Sandra, daughter of immigrant parents, gives us a rare glimpse into the world of government and corporate decision-makers.

As she puts it, "There's no such thing as the untouchables... these mythical individuals that make decisions behind closed doors aren't mythical. They're just people like you and I."

Sandra reveals that behind closed doors, decision-makers deal with the same life challenges as everyone else. They aren't always eloquent or polished. Underneath it all, they are just people doing a job.

This perspective shatters many assumptions about how the government operates.
