This situation is particularly prevalent in the current global workforce where diversity is a significant strength\, yet brings with it its unique set of challenges. Notably\, cross-cultural differences in communication styles\, feedback reception\, and work ethics can sometimes make the process complicated. However\, evidence shows that companies with diverse teams outperform their peers by 35%\, emphasizing the need for effective management of such teams. \nPresenting our comprehensive workshop\, Performance Review Preparation Training\, designed to empower both employers and employees\, including Internationally Educated Professionals (IEPs)\, with the understanding and preparation for performance review processes within the Canadian culture. \nJoin us and walk away with an increased cultural sensitivity\, improved ability to conduct performance reviews\, enhanced communication skills\, and better team relationships. Let’s demystify the performance review process together\, promoting a harmonious work environment irrespective of cultural differences. \nRegister \n\n\n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nContent Highlights \n \n\n \n \n\nUnderstand and navigate these cultural differences in feedback\, helping you build stronger relationships with your teams.\nDevelop culturally sensitive strategies for conducting performance reviews\, enhancing your communication for more efficient feedback management.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nTarget Audience \n \n\n \n \nIEPs unfamiliar with Canadian performance review culture\, enhancing their understanding and preparation\, and fostering improved relationships and collaboration within diverse teams. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nFormat/Delivery \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\nOnline\n\n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \n \nInstructor(s) \n \n\n \n \n20+ years of industry experience in program design and certified in multiple disciplines. \n \n \n\n \n \n \n \nPricing \n \n\n \n \n$250.00 CAD + Taxes URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/performance-review-preparation-workshop-4/ LOCATION:Online END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20251016T173000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20251016T210000 DTSTAMP:20260407T070442 CREATED:20250916T165950Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250918T092054Z UID:2517-1760635800-1760648400@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:Radicle Personhood 2025 DESCRIPTION:A Blueprint for Belonging\nAs a proud supporter of the Garden of Even™ Project\, Quiet Tenacity invites you to continue the conversation on belonging. \nIn 1929\, five bold women stood before the courts and demanded recognition as “persons.” Their triumph\, known as the Persons Case\, cracked open the legal barriers that had kept women invisible under the law. \nBut the fight for personhood has never been just about legal status. It’s about the daily\, radical act of stepping into our full humanity — and creating space for others to do the same. \nThis year at Radicle Personhood: A Persons Day Celebration\, we explore a timeless blueprint for personhood –  belonging –  through an ancient story of two women\, who against all odds reshaped their future through agency\, collective wisdom and thoughtful-risk taking.   \nTheir story offers a radical blueprint for how we might belong to ourselves and to the world around us as we express and celebrate personhood.  \n \n\nKeynote: The Persons Case and Belonging \n \nAt the forefront of employment and labour law\, Samantha Seabrook\, founder of Seabrook Workplace Law\,  will share the importance of the famous “Person’s Case” and how it impacts women\, and all persons today through: \n\nAn exploration of how systems of governance and justice need to be held accountable and open to change and celebrating the Famous Five. \nDefining an expansive evolving concept of what it means to be a person today.\nLinking past and present by underscoring the importance of the Persons Day case and how it ensures that definitions of personhood remain expansive\, equitable\, and human‑centered.\n\nThis keynote offers a relevant take on the power of personhood and invites listeners to remain active in shaping the systems that govern them externally\, and internally\, to step into the full expression of their personhood.  \n\nKeynote: Blueprint for personhood: Agency\, Power & Collective Wisdom\n \nIn her signature Garden of Even™ keynote\, Kadie Philp\, (our storyteller and founder) will invite us into the world of Ruth and Naomi — two women who\, against all odds\, reshaped their futures through: \n\nAgency and Personal power  — choosing to act when the world said stay still by reclaiming identity and dignity in the face of loss.\n\nCollective wisdom — knowing survival and flourishing come not from isolation\, but from connection.\n\nThoughtful risk-taking — crossing borders (literal and social) to carve out new possibilities.\n\nTheir story offers a radical blueprint for how we might belong to ourselves and to the world around us as we step into our radicle personhood. It’s about more than survival; it’s about transformation. \n\n \nFireside Chat: Belonging isn’t Borrowed\n \nIn this reflective conversation\, Inna Rozum-Tuka\, Founder of Quiet Tenacity\, joins Kadie Philp\, storyteller and founder of Garden of Even™\, to deepen the keynote’s themes and bring them into our present context. Together\, they will explore: \n\nBelonging as co-creation — moving beyond the idea that belonging is borrowed or given\, and understanding it as something we actively build together.\nCultural curiosity — the practice of engaging with differences as a source of growth\, allowing us to transform systems while staying true to ourselves.\nHome within and with others — discovering how we can feel at home in our own identity while creating spaces where others can belong too.\n\nThis fireside chat invites us to see belonging not as conformity\, but as transformation — a practice that strengthens both our individuality and our shared humanity. \n\nPeople at Work Panel\n \nHear from Lean In Canada and others  on what progress has been made and what is yet to be done to support women’s equity at work. Our panel of thought leaders will cover: \n\nLeading programs that support belonging at work \nCurrent trends in employment law and practices that impact people at work\nThe importance of people and culture\n\n\nWhy You Should Attend: \n\nHonor the legacy of the Persons Case and the Famous Five — and trace the through-line to today’s progress in equity and inclusion.\n\nEngage and connect with thought leaders on the front lines of employment law\, human resources\, people and culture\, and learning and development. \nExplore what it means to be a person at work today with inspiring talks with a dynamic roster of speakers. \nEnjoy a creative space and refreshments in the immersive Garden of Even™ Exhibtion— where creative expression meets professional development and systems  change. Complimentary premium refreshments will be provided to keep the energy flowing! Premium wines provided by Gusto Grapes. \nCelebrate your own radical personhood — with a community that believes being a person is something worth partying over.\n\nAgenda: \n\n5:30 – 6:00PM: Registration with coffee\, tea and light refreshments\n\n6PM –  7:30PM  Programming (in person & online)\n\n7:30 – 9:00 PM: Celebration (live only) — networking reception with premium food and beverage\, Garden of Even™ art exhibition with special guest Tanya Shapenko. \n\nDetails: \n\nDate: October 16\, 2025\nLocation: Downtown Toronto\, 227 Bloor St. East\nTime: 5:30PM – 9:00PM\nTicket: $99 CAD + Tax (Use Promo Code QUIETTENACITY10 for 10% off)\n\nFull details & registration URL:https://quiettenacity.com/event/radicle-personhood-2025-a-blueprint-for-belonging/ LOCATION:Downtown Toronto END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Toronto:20251031T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Toronto:20251031T130000 DTSTAMP:20260407T070442 CREATED:20240826T170107Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240826T210428Z UID:1927-1761912000-1761915600@quiettenacity.com SUMMARY:October Reflection Hour DESCRIPTION:Winners do not have “To-Do Lists”.
