It is with great sadness we say goodbye to a treasured trailblazer and friend, Renée Roth.

She was promoted to General Sales Manager at Corus Radio Toronto in 1998. Her last post was with Marketron as VP of International Sales.

Renée managed sales teams,  launched radio stations, trained sellers and was an award-winning seller for six consecutive years. In 2005 Renée became  Associate Professor at Humber College University where she taught Sales and The Business of Radio to first year students in the Media Studies Program. In addition to her teaching, she was a public speaker delivering workshops and training programs which focused on Retail Selling, Presentation Skills, Leadership Development, Customer Relationship Management, Strategic Sales Planning, Women in Leadership and Mentoring young leaders.
