I’m Mandy,

but people call me “Bear”

Mandy Rennehan (a.k.a. Bear) is called the Blue-Collar CEO™ for her ability to seamlessly navigate between the white- and blue-collar worlds, and to respectfully ‘tell it like it is’. Mandy is a sought-after speaker, author, multiple award-winning entrepreneur, philanthropist, HGTV host and trade industry ambassador.

Bear is also a lead advisor to the federal Government’s national campaign encouraging apprenticeships and promoting the skilled trades as a career.

Mandy defies labels. The description she often gets is “refreshing.” Her (respectfully) uncensored honesty is matched by her quick wit, East Coast humour, and big heart. It is impossible to remain unchanged after coming into contact with this authentic, self-taught and self-made powerhouse.
