June 3-4, 2020

Toronto, Ontario

In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in leader character in the public, private, and not-for-profit sectors and its resulting impact on individual, team and organizational performance. This interest transcends organizational silos and includes those in the C-suite, human resources, corporate and volunteer boards, regulatory bodies and beyond. From an enhanced organizational culture to the reduction of jeopardous employee behaviours to sustained organizational excellence, the promotion and development of leader character has the capacity to profoundly impact any organization, at any level.

Leaders play a key role in promoting the advancement of leader character within their organizations. By understanding what it takes to develop and exercise character, they are not only better equipped to handle leadership challenges, they are also in a better position to understand what it takes to implement leader character in organizations. When leaders bring personal engagement into leadership development processes and programs, they can enhance organizational culture, performance and success.

Throughout this conference, we will explore how leader character can be brought into organizations through:

• Embedding Character Leadership in HR Practices
• Character Infused Culture
• Diversity & Inclusion
