Our goal is to grow the Canadian economy by championing gender diversity in leadership as a business imperative. Now in its fifth year, WE FOR SHE 2018 will focus on Creating an Equal Future and the role we each play as leaders, champions, employers, and community members to further eq...uality across Canada and beyond. This interactive day will provide thought-provoking education and will highlight best practices for business leaders. In addition, hundreds of high school students from across the province will be in attendance to take part in a variety of workshops.
