Join us virtually on November 6th for the Annual Character Leadership Conference
In today’s polarized world, many of us feel the growing strain of being unable to engage in meaningful conversations with those who think differently. The increasing divide has led to frustration, isolation, and stress within individuals, organizations, and societies. Character Leadership: Cultivating Hope for a Flourishing World is designed to equip leaders and practitioners with the tools to navigate this challenging landscape. Through the lens of character, we will explore how to cultivate hope, foster mutual respect, and build connections that enable flourishing and excellence. Join us for a transformative experience that empowers you to lead with character, create meaningful dialogue, and help shape a world where all can thrive, even amid differences.
This virtual event will include two keynote addresses by globally-renowned thought leaders, a fireside chat with a prominent educator and scholar in the character education space, and three interactive workshops led by Ihnatowycz Leadership’s character academics and practitioners.
- Opening keynote: Adam Kahane, a conflict facilitator, scenario planner, and author, with exceptional experiences with the Mandela and Colombian governments.
