Anya Barkan

Sustainability Manager, Multiplex

Magic Moment: My proudest achievement is Tour de Sustainability – a self propelled cross Canada bicycle tour that I organized and completed. My friend and I cycled almost 10,000 kilometers sharing sustainability inspiration from across the country.

Key Influence:
My mom: She is a strong, determined and remarkably resilient woman. She has overcome major obstacles in her life and is truly a role model.

Next Big Challenge As An Industry: There are many big challenges in the industry right now including climate change, affordability and labour shortages to name a few. It is imperative that we work together to tackle those issues in a transparent and collaborative action.

On Championing Others…: I am currently part of a mentorship program as well as I lead the Women’s Network at Multiplex organizing sessions and events to support and empower women in the industry.

Secret Talent: Procrastination

One word that captures you: Balance. I love riding bicycles and I love this quote from Albert Einstein ‘Life Is Like Riding a Bicycle. To Keep Your Balance You Must Keep Moving’.
