📸 Some amazing moments from the Calgary Women in Leadership Summit!✨ Our Calgary Women in Leadership Summit was excellent, and we are excited to share some highlights and photos from the event! Key takeaways to transform the future of work include the importance of psychological safe spaces, Indigenous Networks, and measuring what you treasure. We also learned the significance of neurodiversity awareness training. Deborah Green inspired us with the concept of full participation: "Nothing without us about us," while Lana Bentley shared Rosemary Brown's empowering quote: "Until all of us have made it, none of us have made it." Elder Ruby Eagle Child reminded us that we are all matriarchs and life givers; our voices are crucial to changing systems. Thank you to all participants, speakers, sponsors, and foundation members for making this event a success! Stay tuned for our exciting June programs. 🚀💼 Ruby Eagle Child Heather Thomson PCC Gurjit Mann Toor Ambreen Sulman, CPA, CGA Elizabeth Punch Crystal Sinclair Deborah Green-Gopher kàkikè manitohkân iskwêwak Bina Kamath Anne-Marie Pham, MPA Lana Bentley Sylvie Croteau-Willard Tara Langan, B.Mgmt Shelley Kuipers Megan Wickens Shabeena Habib Karen X.
