This episode we chat with industry legend Kim Bedier, Director of Venues & Events for the City of Tacoma, including the iconic Tacoma Dome, one of the largest wood domed structures in the world. Hear about Kim’s passions of promoting women in leadership roles, the importance of mentoring, and the value of career advancement through IAVM, the International Association of Venue Managers. From hunting for penguins at small venues in northern Canada, to opening Air Canada Centre (now Scotiabank Arena), Kim’s career adventure has been lead by her willingness to embrace challenges, “say yes a lot,” and chase the next great adventure.
