Indigenous Awareness - Conversation with Grandmother Brenda Roberts

This is the recording of a conversation with Grandmother Brenda Roberts, which took place on September 30, 2020 for Orange Shirt Day. Grandmother Roberts discusses Phyllis' story, Every Child Matters, and the intergenerational effects of the Indian Residential Schools. She also talks about the Seven Grandfather Teachings. The session includes a question and answer period. Grandmother Brenda Roberts is passionate about her work in mental health and addictions. She is an artist, mother, and grandmother. As with many Indigenous people, she was disassociated from her culture, and it has only been since 2013 that she has been on a path of rediscovery. Finding her culture and learning to live as an Anishinaabe Kwe has reached her spirit and has reawakened something inside.

Indigenous Awareness - Kairos Blanket Exercise

The KAIROS Blanket Exercise is an experiential teaching tool based on participatory popular education methodology, and the major themes and findings of the 1996 Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples. Participants step onto blankets representing the land, and into the role of First Nations, Inuit and later Métis peoples. Facilitators read the script and assume the role of European explorers and settlers. The exercise builds awareness and understanding of our shared history as Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada by having participants literally walk through situations that include pre-contact, treaty-making, colonization and resistance. Participants are drawn into their roles by reading scrolls and carrying cards which ultimately determine their outcomes. By engaging on an emotional and intellectual level, the KAIROS Blanket Exercise effectively educates while increasing empathy. It reaches both the mind and the heart. It is contributing to a movement for reconciliation through education across the country.

Indigenous Awareness - Kairos Blanket Exercise

The KAIROS Blanket Exercise is an experiential teaching tool based on participatory popular education methodology, and the major themes and findings of the 1996 Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples. Participants step onto blankets representing the land, and into the role of First Nations, Inuit and later Métis peoples. Facilitators read the script and assume the role of European explorers and settlers. The exercise builds awareness and understanding of our shared history as Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada by having participants literally walk through situations that include pre-contact, treaty-making, colonization and resistance. Participants are drawn into their roles by reading scrolls and carrying cards which ultimately determine their outcomes. By engaging on an emotional and intellectual level, the KAIROS Blanket Exercise effectively educates while increasing empathy. It reaches both the mind and the heart. It is contributing to a movement for reconciliation through education across the country.

Strategic Thinking

In today's dynamic and highly complex global economy, it is critically important for policy leaders to be strategic thinkers, an increasingly valued competency for senior managers in business as well as in government. Whether the objective is to introduce a new product line or develop a new policy direction, decision makers or managers supporting the decision-making process must be able to systematically identify the goals, emerging opportunities, and possible obstacles. This one-day course aims to guide students through a disciplined process to help a business or organization plan for and make transitions, and ultimately to devise the best course of actions. You will also gain a better insight into your own strategic thinking skills – are they up to par or could they use some enhancement?

Transformation – Develop a Growth Mindset to improve your Cognitive Flexibility

Note: this course is held over three sessions of 2.5 hours. Cognitive flexibility means being able to learn from your environment and perceiving it in new ways. In this workshop, you will learn new ways to improve your cognitive flexibility by using a growth mindset. Based on Dr Dweck's research, the growth mindset means accepting that your environment and people around you change and have the potential to improve. This is opposed to the fixed mindset that supposes there are limits to self development. This mentality has an impact on how we perceive feedback, our biases, and our own and others' capabilities. After participating in this workshop, you should be able to explain the impact of expectations on results, to define and apply a growth mindset, to apply techniques that support new ways to think, and to foster and receive constructive criticism from your peers.
