SUMMARY:Your Voice is Needed at the Board Table
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER \nCognitive diversity\, also known as diversity of thought can simply be defined as inclusion of people who have different information processing styles or problem-solving skills and who can offer unique perspectives because they think differently.  \nBoards that are diverse are creative\, innovative and they encourage greater consideration of alternatives while providing access to a wider range of information and perspectives.  There are many reasons why people sit on boards.  In this interactive workshop\, you will learn:  \n\nAdvantages of sitting at the board table \nWhat participating on not-for-profit boards involves \nHow to decide which board to join\nWhether you have what it takes to be on a board\n\nMembers of Synergy Executive & Boards Consulting Group will facilitate this session. \nSynergy Executive & Boards Consulting Group specializes in placing\, promoting and supporting the advancement of BIPOC subject matter experts and professionals seeking to bring their voices and talents to boardrooms\, C-suites and other decision-making tables. Synergy\, networks and connections by supporting companies to achieve their diversity goals through building talent pipelines; government and industry stakeholder engagement and management; and through equity\, diversity\, inclusion and anti-racism consulting. \nVancouver Poetry House events take place on the ancestral territories of the Xʷməθkʷəy̓əm\, Sḵwx̱wú7mesh\, and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh First Nations\, whose lands were never sold\, ceded\, or relinquished\,—lands that were taken. Vancouver Poetry House supports the resurgence of Indigenous culture and the work of Indigenous poets. \n
