Episode notes
In the winter, Otago MBA and Physical Education graduate Bridget Legnavsky starts her day with a cross-country ski with her dog before work and ends it by taking the gondola home. Bridget is President and CEO of Sugar Bowl ski resort in Tahoe, California, a role she began in 2022 after working as General Manager at Cardrona Alpine Resort and Treble Cone Ski Resort in Wānaka since 2014.
Bridget talks about why she and her family decided it was time for an adventure, how she fitted the MBA Online programme around her busy life, her wide-ranging experience in community governance, business leadership, climate change strategy, and fashion. And how she hadn’t expected her new job to be a little like “being mayor of a small town”.
