Arlene Dickenson – Feature interview with Dragons’ Den Star

Originally broadcast in January of 2013, we’ve edited, slimmed down and re-posted our feature interview with Dragons’ Den star and prominent Canadian business woman Arlene Dickenson.

At 30, Arlene Dickinson was divorced, had a high school diploma, no savings, and no idea how to feed four young children. She is now the CEO of Venture Communications, a co-star of the CBC TV hit Dragons’ Den, and one of the country’s most sought-after female entrepreneurs. Hear Arlene’s career story and advice from her book Persuasion. Plus, hear what it was like to be on Dragon’s Den from the founders of SMARTeacher and Urban Cultivator.
