    What It Takes to Move people featuring Erin Benjamin

    In this episode of Message Received, host Jennifer Madigan speaks with Erin Benjamin, Executive Vice President, Advocacy & Strategy at the Ottawa Board of Trade, about what it actually takes to move people and make change happen. Drawing on decades of advocacy, including her time as founding President and CEO of the Canadian Live Music Association, Benjamin shares how the first-ever economic impact study of Canada's live music sector helped shift the industry from a nice to have to a must have in the eyes of government. They explore why common ground is the starting point for any coalition, how relationships and reputation shape whether your message lands, and why she believes collaboration is Ottawa's biggest opportunity right now.

    When Playing It Safe Becomes the Biggest Risk in Communications

    In the first episode of Message Received, host Jennifer Madigan speaks with Jennifer Stewart, Founder and CEO of Syntax, about how communications has evolved over the past decade and what that shift demands of leaders today. They explore the move from traditional media to fragmented digital channels, why communications must be treated as a C-suite function, and how over-caution, over-approval, and the pursuit of perfection can slow progress and weaken impact. Stewart shares practical insights on originality, leadership visibility, and why momentum and clarity matter more than flawless execution. The conversation ultimately makes the case that in today’s environment, playing it safe often carries more risk than moving with intention and that credibility is built by showing up, not waiting.
