This remarkable event brought together visionary leaders, inspiring speakers, and curious minds, leaving a lasting impression on all who participated.
Event highlights
Why This Event Was Pivotal
It delved into the heart of leadership. It went beyond steering the ship and focused on ensuring it could withstand any storm. Leadership and resilience intersected, pointing the way to the future of successful organisations.
Unlocking Leadership Secrets
Our event uncovered the untapped potential of the human brain with Carlos Davidovich, explored how love and compassion can transform businesses with Yvonne Thompson, and engaged with Lee Norris on the power of Ontological coaching.
Redefining Leadership in a Changing World
Ultimately, this event explored questions about how leaders master the art of change, skilfully navigate their teams' paths into an unwritten future, and convert uncertainty into opportunity. During the panel discussion, we chatted about Heart/Brain Coherence, Trust, bias, intuition and the freedom that comes to CEOs when they release the need to have the answers. We have begun the process of redefining leadership in our changing world.
Panel guests
Our esteemed guests had the privilege of delving into thought-provoking topics, igniting curiosity, and deepening our understanding of how strategies for resilience shape leadership approaches, promoting collaboration and success:
Carlos Davidovich
Carlos enlightened the audience about the science behind intuition and its profound influence on decision-making and leadership, sharing the fascinating insight that the human brain isn't always capable of making 100% rational decisions.
Lee Norris
Lee explored the fascinating realm of ontological coaching, shedding light on how this approach can reshape leadership, introducing the concept of humour as a way to give the brain a rest, akin to meditation.
Yvonne Thompson
Yvonne sparked deep reflection by discussing the concept that thoughts are electrical and emotions are magnetic, offering a unique perspective on human connection and provoking thought with her profound comments on deep human connections.

CHARITABLE IMPACT
At the CPHR Manitoba Conference, we choose to make a real impact by redirecting our resources towards charitable donations, allocating $5 per conference participant, and supporting three remarkable organisations: Ripple Effect, Billy Chip, and Career Trek.
Everyone who participated in the charity donation was entered into a raffle, with one lucky winner, Sara Baldwin from the National Construction Council, walking away with a brand-new iPad and Stylus pen.
Leadership isn't just about where you are now; it's about where you can take yourself and your team.
