Why adopting ”Weology” should be your #1 innovation strategy - Vancouver, Canada’s Podcast

In today’s podcast, we talk about ‘Weology: How everybody wins when we comes before me’, based on themes in The Globe and Mail’s bestseller book authored by Peter Aceto.

Peter Aceto is a globally recognized and respected business leader, author and speaker, currently focused on reversing the epidemic of quiet quitting through caring, compassionate leadership. As a founder and investor in multiple technology companies, Peter devotes much of his time to the technology, innovation and startup ecosystem by serving as a mentor and advisor to Canadian startups.

Peter just completed a 2 year "turning around" of the operations of one of Canada’s largest mortgage brokerages, The Mortgage Alliance Company of Canada – rebuilding its management and sales teams, implementing operational processes, making significant technology enhancements and leading the company to its best financial performance.

Previously, Peter was a founding member of Tangerine (formerly ING DIRECT)’s senior leadership team helping transform ING Direct from a monoline savings bank to Canada’s most preferred "everyday" bank, ultimately leading to the 2012 $3.1 billion acquisition of ING DIRECT by Scotiabank. Peter also had a short tenure leading a Canadian medical cannabis company, is a Board member of the Sinai Health System Foundation, was a member of the Council of Governors of iCanada dedicated to helping Canada become a world leading "intelligent nation."
