In 1974, Marg Latham was the only woman to graduate in civil engineering from Queen’s University. Since then, she has continued to be a pioneer and trailblazer. To this day, she is one of few women in Canada to have been a construction superintendent.
Over the first 20 years of her career, Latham managed major construction projects in Toronto, Winnipeg and Vancouver and later became the first female vice president in UMA Group, a national consulting engineering firm. Today, in her own business she is assisting major public and private sector engineering and geoscience organizations and regulators in improving professional practice.
Latham has been a champion for women in SETT since the 1970s, has been on the WinSETT Board since 2012 and has led the board after both the death of founding chair Margaret-Ann Armour and through the pandemic.
Outside of work, Latham spends her summers sailing and being on the water with her spouse of 34 years. She is also an avid walker and enjoys downhill skiing in the winter.
We all learn from each other and consequently build a stronger community! Absolutely well done!!!
I truly do enjoy these sessions – the discussion that is prompted by the breakout rooms is great. I look forward to attending more of these in the future.
This was a fantastic course – one that all young women should take when starting off their careers. I was extremely impressed and will recommend this to other women in my network.
The content delivered through the WinSETT Women’s Leadership Program covers key insights that women can draw on to position themselves as high-value talent. Our participants hold the program in high regard as it provides exceptional nudges to help them advance their careers
Very well done. Don’t want to play favorites but it was the best one yet! I did not think of workplace politics as a positive way to progress forward, so this was eye opening.
The facilitator was very knowledgeable and the workshop was very hands-on Awesome job!
