Keynote Address | Allocution: Two Spirit Diversity - Race, Gender, Sexuality & Unconscious Bias | La diversité bispirituelle - Le genre, la sexualité, la race et les préjugés inconscients
Dr. James Makokis has an incredible first-hand experience in growing up as a Two-Spirit in a segregated and marginalized community. He has one of the most unique perspectives on the importance of acceptance and equal treatment regarding cultural, gender, sexuality and racial differences. Two-Spirit is a contemporary English term to reflect gender diversity that Indigenous nations have always had. Canada is one of the most diverse countries in the world yet many individuals face personal challenges in achieving success. Dr. Makokis combines his story with practical insights on how to create accepting spaces where EVERYONE can prosper by incorporating an accepting attitude to anyone that is outside of social norms. He will share how to identify and acknowledge our unconscious bias, which often creates and reinforces stereotypes and stigmas which then negatively impact our relationships. Dr. Makokis teaches how to become an ally to refocus our relationships to be accepting, safe and supportive. This presentation will provide key learnings for individuals and organizations that work to create new inclusive programs for diverse populations. 

Le Dr James Makokis a vécu une expérience personnelle extraordinaire en tant que bispirituel qui a grandi dans une communauté ségréguée et marginalisée. Il a une perspective des plus uniques sur l’importance de l’acceptation et de l’égalité de traitement en ce qui concerne les différences liées à la culture, au genre, à la sexualité et à la race. « Bispirituel » est un terme français contemporain qui reflète la diversité de genre qui existe depuis toujours au sein des nations autochtones. Nombreux sont ceux qui doivent encore relever des défis personnels pour réussir au Canada, qui est pourtant l’un des pays les plus diversifiés au monde. Le Dr Makokis nous racontera son histoire en y intégrant des idées pratiques sur la manière de créer des espaces d’acceptation où TOUT LE MONDE peut prospérer en adoptant une attitude d’acceptation à l’égard de quiconque se trouve en dehors des normes sociales. Il nous expliquera comment cerner et reconnaître nos préjugés inconscients, qui créent et renforcent souvent les stéréotypes et la stigmatisation qui ont ensuite des répercussions négatives sur nos relations. Il nous enseignera à devenir un allié pour recentrer nos relations afin qu’elles reposent sur l’acceptation, la sécurité et l’entraide. Cette présentation fournira des apprentissages clés aux personnes et aux organisations qui travaillent à la création de nouveaux programmes inclusifs pour des populations diversifiées.

Keynote Address | Allocution: Working it Out: How to be Ready for the Redefined World of Work | Comment se préparer à évoluer dans un monde du travail redéfini
The pandemic has upturned our economy and our lives, and it has upturned work as well. We can work anywhere if we choose and that is a huge and dramatic development that many organizations are still not ready to navigate. As well, a series of megatrends including climate change, demographics and the fourth industrial revolution are about to disrupt work and force further changes. What should we expect and how should we get ready for what is ahead? In this presentation based on her upcoming book of the same title, economist and futurist Linda Nazareth gives you a succinct preview of what comes next and how to best get ready for a future of work that looks little like the past.

La pandémie a bouleversé notre économie et nos vies, mais le monde du travail également. Nous pouvons désormais travailler de n’importe où si nous le souhaitons, et il s’agit d’un changement considérable et radical auquel de nombreuses organisations ne sont pas encore prêtes à faire face. En outre, une série de grandes tendances, qui concernent notamment les changements climatiques, la démographie et la quatrième révolution industrielle, sont sur le point de bouleverser le monde du travail et d’imposer de nouveaux changements. À quoi s’attendre et comment se préparer pour l’avenir? Dans cette présentation fondée sur son prochain livre intitulé Working it Out: How to be Ready for the Redefined World of Work, l’économiste et futurologue Linda Nazareth présente un aperçu de ce qui va suivre et de la meilleure façon de se préparer à un avenir du travail qui ne ressemblera guère au passé.

Keynote Address | Allocution: Resiliency Through Diversity | La résilience malgré l’adversité
Join Tareq on an emotional journey from Syria to Canada with heart-breaking and perspective-shaping stops along the way. From sunny days in Syria where the scent of roses filled the air to the beginning of conflict and war. Listen as Tareq shares the fear and confusion that came when violence and danger begin to slowly surround his family. Understand what it is really like to spend days hiding in your basement, praying for safety and food and medicine. Learn how a family made the decision to leave everything behind in search of safety outside of their homeland only to find more uncertainty and desperation as refugees in Lebanon. Witness the life-changing impact of being granted a family ticket to Canada and watch as that country's Prime Minister singles out the Hadhad family and their community for its perseverance and kindness. This is an emotional rollercoaster that will leave you feeling inspired and resolved to make your own impact on the world.

Accompagnez Tareq dans un voyage émouvant de la Syrie au Canada, ponctué d’arrêts qui brisent le cœur et ouvrent de nouvelles perspectives. Des journées ensoleillées en Syrie où le parfum des roses embaume l’air jusqu’au début du conflit et de la guerre, écoutez Tareq parler de la peur et de la confusion qu’il a ressenties lorsque la violence et le danger ont commencé à entourer lentement sa famille. Comprenez ce que signifie passer des jours à se cacher dans son sous-sol, à prier pour être en sécurité, pour avoir de la nourriture et des médicaments. Découvrez comment une famille a pris la décision de tout laisser derrière elle en quête de sécurité hors de son pays d’origine, pour finalement trouver plus d’incertitude et de désespoir en tant que réfugiée au Liban. Soyez témoin de l’impact de l’octroi d’un billet familial pour le Canada, qui a changé sa vie, et regardez le premier ministre de ce pays reconnaître la famille Hadhad et sa communauté pour leur persévérance et leur gentillesse. Cette montagne russe émotionnelle vous inspirera et vous donnera envie d’avoir à votre tour un impact sur le monde.
