Launch a Career in Canada
I spoke specifically on:
Knowing your brand and perfect telling your story. Know how your background and languages are assets. As a public speaker, focus on confidence rather than accent. Be interesting to be around.
Diversity Dialogue Conference | Richmond Multicultural Concerns Society | Kwantlen College
I presented a case study of the aboriginal employees at CBC, and facilitated a workshop that looked at: 1. The impact of poor retention and 2. What could be done to correct retention challenges. I then provided some insight to what initiatives were undertaken by CBC to address retention issues specific to aboriginal employees.
Thomas Haney Secondary School | Maple Ridge
I spoke to a group of high school students in Maple Ridge on success tips and on building a career in social change. It aimed to give some direction to students who aspire to be change-makers, or are struggling with the direction of their post-secondary education. This session is part of the Youth Leadership Workshop Series presented by the Family Education and Support Centre.
