THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS: REFLECTING ON LEADERSHIP
FEBRUARY 5-7, 2014
RADISSON HOTEL VANCOUVER AIRPORT, RICHMOND
————————————-
Thanks to all of the excellent speakers, organizers and delegates who helped to make the 2014 LGLA Leadership Forum a great success! This year’s provincial “Reflecting on Leadership” forum provided a time and place for local government and First Nations leaders from around the province to connect, learn from a range of experienced presenters, and share their stories with one another.
Session materials (where available) are posted below – please feel free to download and make use of these excellent resource materials.
Stay tuned for the 2015 Newly Elected/Returning Elected Seminar Series announcements. We have events scheduled around the province – involving, as always, a mix of inspiring plenary sessions, practical workshops, and networking opportunities. We hope to see you there!
