ED SIMS PUSHING THROUGH THE GRIND OF HIS HONEYMOON PHASE

Had the pleasure of working with Karl Moore on this piece for the Financial Post. Read below the interview with Ed Sims, newish CEO of WestJet.

Earlier this year, WestJet welcomed new CEO Ed Sims to its team. Sims is a veteran in the airline industry, with experience in the U.K., Australia and New Zealand. He arrived to Canada at a time he deems particularly interesting.

“I think it’s about managing expectations. It’s about reminding people that very little comes to you in life without working at it, or without refining a skill. You’ve got to go through the grind and you’ve got to practice that over and over again.”
