C-Suite Unplugged: Alan Norris, Executive Chairman, Brookfield Properties

When given the chance to advance one's career by going to India, Bermuda, or Calgary, you may be surprised to hear someone chose the sunny Alberta city given the options. But after four kids, nine grandchildren, and a successful merger to create a North American powerhouse, there's nowhere Alan Norris would rather be. On this episode, we speak with Alan Norris, Executive Chair of Brookfield Properties, about his journey to the C-Suite, his experience taking an ailing company from the edge of bankruptcy into a successful merger, and the role of an Executive Chair. We also discuss housing affordability in Canada and North America, the importance of being present within the community, and the value of passion in one's career. ------------ About The Business Council of Alberta The Business Council of Alberta was founded on a simple idea: to make life better for all Albertans. We believe that business has an important role in improving society, and that when business does well, we all do well. We work with the chief executives and leading entrepreneurs of Alberta's largest enterprises to understand the big, long-term challenges that Albertans are facing and work with industry, government, and civil society to solve these problems and build shared prosperity for every person who calls Alberta home.
