Presented by David Irvine

Please register before this date to ensure event is not canceled.


Program Summary:

While leaders at the senior level of an organization might define a culture and set the tone, a workplace is built by the attitudes, decisions, and actions of every employee. Leadership is not a position. Leadership is a presence. You are promoted to being a boss, but you can’t get promoted to being a leader. You have to earn the right to be a leader. Leadership is a decision. Anyone in an organization can be a leader; therefore, anyone can transform a culture.

In this thought-provoking and engaging session, David Irvine offers a fresh and powerful view of leadership and personal effectiveness that builds bridges of trust, thus unleashing human potential. Take this opportunity to step back, gain new perspective on about yourself as a leader, and strengthen your capacity to build a great culture. Come prepared for an inspiring message from one of Canada’s most respected voices on leadership and personal development. Leave with practical insights and strategies for building a culture that attracts, retains, and unleashes greatness – through the power of trust.

You Will Learn:

  • Learn the four cornerstones to building an inspired workplace – that can be applied at any level of an organization.
  • Discover how to breathe new life into your culture.
  • Learn how to inspire deep trust in your organization through the power of accountability.
