New This Year

There are several fantastic events this year at the Your Workplace Conference 2010. Each of these terrific events is being offered for a small additonal cost to the regular conference program.

Awards Presentation with Brett Wilson -With the theme of Enchanted Garden, this fantastic event will be a dazzling display worthy of an award! Featuring a unique multimedia performance with live dancing created exclusively for this special event… definitely a dinner not to be missed! Winners of the Top Workplaces Where Employees Thrive award will be announced and recognized–the perfect way to kick off the conference!

Gotta Laugh Dinner - Yet another networking opportunity! Enjoy a scrumptious dinner prepared by the executive chef of the International Centre with friends old and new. Then prepare for an exciting show of belly aching laughter by our favorite Comedian Deb Kimmett!

The Leadership Summit - This forum will bring together senior-level decision-makers, from public and private organizations, to discuss the common challenges of the new workplace, and share solutions for improving employee engagement and organizational productivity. The spirit of the Leadership Summit is informative—a forum for discussion and debate among leading thinkers of progressive organizations.

Returning This Year

Workshops – Select from three hands-on interactive workshops offered by leaders in their field. This is a wonderful opportunity to roll-up your sleeves and discover solutions and develop ideas. Spend three hours with a talented expert, facilitator and coach, and dive into the topics of either team or personal engagement.

Dare2Dine lunch – Returning for a repeat performance and the highlight of last year’s conference, the fabulous Dare2Dine event! You will experience a dynamic learning and engaging networking adventure at this fun lunch. Upon registration at the conference you will be offered the opportunity to select three different speakers with whom to “break bread”. The details of this exciting event will unfold when you join us at Dare2Dine… a whole new twist to lunch and learn! Seating is limited.

Trade show – The Odyssey of Engagement zone of the tradeshow will be totally engaging and fully interactive. Participate and have fun in the Odyssey of Engagement Challenge and take advantage of the chance to win a grand prize! Welcome Reception – This is your golden opportunity to catch up with old friends and network with your peers. There’s no better way to launch the Your Workplace Conference experience.

Book Store – We know that you have a thirst for knowledge. That’s why every year YW selects business books, health and safety publications, multimedia and training resources that are most relevant to you and your career interests. Not only will you find a broad selection to help you grow professionally, you’ll also enjoy browsing our motivational and personal interest section. Don’t miss this chance to have your books signed by YW authors! Look for the schedule of author signings.

*Here’s a tip from past attendees: Buy keynote and authors’ books ahead of time so that you can go straight to the signing table without waiting in line to purchase your book.
