Community Hub

Share, learn, connect
It needs to be said …. because silence has meaning
Our leadership team gathered under the umbrella of “PeopleDynamics Learning Group” declare the following:

Black Lives Matter. Our shared humanity and our future depends on us fostering a lived experience of interconnectedness based in equality and inclusion, so at this juncture in history it is important to say specifically that Black Lives Matter, as an acknowledgement of the impact of systemic racism on the Black community.

We are committing to be an active ally in the quest to dismantle systemic racism and to promote equality, inclusion, and deep respect for the Black community. We accept that there are many different ways to act as an ally in this quest, and we will continue to be in conversation with one another and the community to discern what actions might serve best.

As an organization with special expertise in the art of conversation – one-on-one and in teams/groups – we are committed to finding ways to deploy this expertise in ways that can help us collectively move from where we are to a more equitable, inclusive, and hopeful future. Actions include reshaping the content of our current programs, creating safe spaces for ongoing conversations about race and racism, and the design of processes to help equip more people to have these conversations skillfully and confidently.

A Candid Conversation About Racism

Our community participated in a powerful conversation about the Black experience in Canada, and about the impact of systemic racism on our Black colleagues and friends.

Donna Forde was the powerful voice that shared her experience with us, and allowed us to express some of our pain and confusion and fears and hopes around this topic.  Donna is a member of our coaching community and a faculty member of our Business Coaching Advantage Coaching Certification Program™, and has been leading many conversations for leaders about racism, systemic injustice and the Black experience over the last few weeks.

“I did much research and sought recommendations into the best coaching training in North America and the Business Coaching Advantage program came to the top. So I entered the training with high expectations, and the training, facilitators, and other participants exceeded all my expectations.”

“Going through the course and the practicum has rejuvenated me professionally. It is as if I have found the missing piece to my leadership skills. Business coaching makes so much sense for the education sector. The feedback from my clients on how I have helped them has inspired me to want to practise these skills with other leaders., in our organization and elsewhere.
