Monique Collette on how to spark passion and purpose in organizations

Monique Collette, president of the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency, will give a public presentation and lead a discussion on how to spark passion and purpose in your organization, on Thursday, April 15, 7:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m., in the KCI lecture theatre, UPEI.

At the request of the Clerk of the Privy Council, Collette conducted a one-person task force in 2009 to explore ideas and approaches that have a positive impact on the workplace environment and the effectiveness of the Public Service of Canada. Her meetings with departments and agencies across the country gave her an opportunity to hear employees speak with passion and commitment about the kind of workplace they want, and what they are doing to create it.

Collette will share stories from her consultations, and outline insights and lessons learned that are valuable to all leaders who want to spark passion and purpose in their workplaces.

The session is jointly sponsored by the University of Prince Edward Island and the Centre for Spirituality and the Workplace at Saint Mary's University. Admission is free and everyone is welcome.
