BizTimes MKE: Milwaukee Business Insights

Visit Milwaukee president and CEO Peggy Williams-Smith joined Marquette University president Michael Lovell and BizTimes managing editor Arthur Thomas on Leadership Lens, a monthly podcast that dives into the leadership styles of Milwaukee-area business leaders.

The conversation, recorded in mid-April, touches on how Williams-Smith navigated the pandemic, which hit just after she started in her role, landing the Republican National Convention, selling Milwaukee and addressing its challenges, leading as an optimist who doesn’t want to say no to things, and much more.
