Commitment is only the beginning. Meaningful progress happens when it is reflected across organizational decisions, workplace practices, accountability and relationships.

At the Leadership Circle Fall Forum, we will explore how different parts of an organization can move beyond individual efforts toward coordinated action.

Connect with peers, exchange perspectives and identify practical priorities to help move your organization forward.

🧡 As organizations prepare for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation on September 30, thoughtful planning can help create learning that is respectful, supportive and connected to ongoing action.

Before choosing an activity, consider:

• What do we want employees to learn or reflect on?
• How will Indigenous employees be supported?
• Are we relying on Indigenous employees to organize or lead the learning?
• How will this connect to our broader Indigenous inclusion work?
• What will continue after September 30?

Clear intentions can help move workplace activities beyond a single-day observance and toward sustained learning, stronger relationships and accountability.

Meaningful progress on Indigenous inclusion becomes more sustainable when people across an organization learn, reflect and act together.

On October 22, Indigenous Works will bring together professionals from across organizations and sectors for an interactive afternoon of facilitated learning, practical reflection and peer connection.

The Leadership Circle Fall Forum is open to Leadership Circle members and non-members.

An accepted job offer is the beginning of the employee experience, not the completion of an inclusion goal.

Recruitment can open the door, but onboarding, supervision, development opportunities and everyday workplace interactions shape what happens next. These experiences influence whether Indigenous employees feel welcomed, supported and able to grow within the organization.

What does your organization communicate after an Indigenous employee accepts an offer?

Build a more focused and accountable approach to Indigenous inclusion by understanding where your organization is today.

Meaningful progress requires more than a stated commitment. It takes sustained action, accountability, learning, and relationships.

Join us on August 27 to explore our Seven-Stage Inclusion Continuum, a practical framework for understanding how organizational approaches to Indigenous inclusion evolve over time.

You will leave better equipped to recognize your organization’s current position and determine its next honest step.

There is no single finish line. Progress begins with understanding where you are and taking meaningful action from there.

From Commitment to Action

No two employees begin Indigenous inclusion learning from the same place. All-staff training builds a shared foundation without assuming one.

Some employees bring professional knowledge, community relationships or lived experience. Others are learning about First Nations, Inuit and Métis histories, rights and contemporary realities for the first time.

Workforces also continue to change:

• new employees join
• leaders and managers transition
• terminology evolves
• organizational priorities develop
• commitments move from intention to implementation

Indigenous Works develops distinctions-based learning that recognizes different experiences and creates opportunities for reflection, respectful dialogue and practical application.

Participants explore how the learning connects to their roles, workplace decisions and relationships. Indigenous employees are not expected to educate colleagues or speak on behalf of their communities.

The goal is not for everyone to leave with the same perspective. All-staff training strengthens the shared knowledge and responsibility needed to build respectful relationships, make informed decisions and take meaningful action.
