Podcast: 60. Susan Holt on the story of Plato Software Testing

Susan Holt is the Chief Growth Officer for Plato Testing, a software testing service that hires and trains people with indigenous backgrounds. She also acts in the same role for their sister company PQA. She has been part of Plato Testing's growth from a single office to five offices across Canada over the past five years.

Throughout the growth of the company, there have been decisions that have contributed to Plato's ability to provide quality software testing, and build up the skills of their employees. In addition, they have provided opportunities for employees to become limited partners in the company and receive some of the benefits that ownership provides.
