SUMMARY:Leadership Series 3.0: Supplier Diversity
DESCRIPTION:DESCRIPTION \n\n\n\nThe term diversity has evolved over the last decade\, but never quite as fast as it has in the last 2 years.

It is no longer a choice\, but an imperative for an organization to be consciously selective of their suppliers and give back to the customers by paving way for underserved communities to shine. This day will tackle how supplier diversity strategy not just helps the suppliers but also your supply chain operations and customer expectation management. \nNon-member registration will include a membership until April 30\, 2023 (for ON residents and new members only \n\n\nAGENDA\n\n\n8:45 AM Welcome and Opening Remarks \n9:00 – 10:15 AM Leadership Panel:  Gaining Competitive Advantage and Operational Resilience Through Supplier Diversity \n10:15 – 10:30 AM Networking Break/Breakout Rooms \n10:30 – 11:30 AM Driving Diversity and Sustainability Initiatives Through Supply Chain \n11:30 – 12:00 PM Lunch Break \n12:00 – 1:00 PM Session TBD \n1:00 – 1:15 PM Networking Break/Breakout Rooms \n1:15 – 2:15 PM Establishing an Effective Supplier Diversity Program \n2:15 – 2:30 PM Break \n2:30 – 3:30 PM Session TBD \n3:30 PM Closing Comments \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPRICE\n\nMEMBER $149\nNON-MEMBER $199\nTEAM OF 4+(PP)$125\n\n\nClick here for more information\n\nClick here to register

Join our FOI/ATIP Manager\, Adrian Chalifour\, for a free webinar as explore the implications\, requirements\, and opportunities for getting outsourced assistance in processing FOI/ATIP requests. \nMost people don’t know how much effort and how many resources are dedicated to processing Freedom of Information or Access to Information requests. Freedom of public information is a critical component of our democratic society but meeting the legislated timelines can often be a stressful and unrealistic expectation for a lot of public sector departments. At the same time\, many public sector bodies struggle to find qualified talent that can adequately perform the required duties of processing these requests. \nWhat you might not know\, is that processing FOI/ATIP requests is job that you can completely outsource. \nJoin us on Wednesday June 28th @ 12pm PDT / 3pm EDT for an engaging webinar where we’re going to look at the implications\, requirements\, and possibilities of outsourcing FOI requests to help you answer some of the most common questions: \n🔍 Is it permissible to outsource FOI/ATIP requests in Canada? \n🔍 How exactly does an outsourced FOI/ATIP shop operate? \n🔍 Which specific tasks can be effectively outsourced\, and which ones require an internal approach? \n🔍 What should you consider when selecting a consulting company? (Credentials\, experience\, location\, policies\, privacy\, and security\, etc.) \nThis webinar will be hosted by Adrian Chalifour\, FOI/ATIP Manager at PrivacyWorks Consulting Inc. Adrian has been in the world of access requests for more than 10 years and currently runs a team of analysts helping public sector bodies across Canada manage their FOI and ATIP requests.

SUMMARY:Half-Day Understanding Emotional Intelligence Virtual Course
DESCRIPTION:The ability to interact effectively on a team with your internal and external customers is an essential business skill. Organizations rely on cohesive teams to accomplish goals\, satisfy customer requirements\, contribute innovative solutions to problems\, and improve the bottom-line.  \n  \nOne’s intellectual and technical abilities are not enough to develop teams to their fullest potential. Teams require trust and the ability to communicate despite disagreements\, conflicts\, and change.  \n  \nDeveloping emotional intelligence (EI) is an important ingredient in building effective teams because it involves the self-management of one’s own reactions to stress\, tense situations\, dealings with different and difficult people\, and organizational change. It also enables individuals on teams to be more in tune with the needs and reactions of others for improved trust\, motivation\, innovation\, and performance.  \n  \nIn this workshop\, participants will gain insights about what emotional intelligence is\, how it differs from one’s IQ\, and how to use it effectively to build team relationships with others for enhanced synergy\, trust\, productivity\, and performance.  \n  \nFor more information\, please click HERE. \n  \nTo Register\, please click HERE.

SUMMARY:Managing Customer Conversations through Chat - Virtual Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Consumers are increasingly turning to social media to air frustrations or grievances that they are having with a particular company. Alongside this\, audiences are also looking at your social media channels to be an effective first port of call for any big announcements\, both good and bad. Our course will help brands realize the importance of being present on these channels\, whether it’s responding to customer queries or complaints\, raising an issue with the wider world or managing PR statements. \n  \nOn Social Media\, every Customer Service interaction becomes a permanent\, searchable\, online record. Even private and direct messages can be easily screen-captured and shared with the world. Considering the viral nature of the platform\, is it worth the risk? \n  \nIn this workshop\, your staff will be trained to engage with your customers socially via networks like Twitter and Facebook to help them improve your company’s social service experience while avoid embarrassing and costly mistakes online. \n  \nThis course is aimed at businesses who already have established social media channels and an overall online presence. \n  \nTo learn more\, please click HERE. \n  \nTo Register\, please click HERE.
