Workshop on the Principles of Reconciliation 

The Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada believes that for Canada to flourish in the 21st century, reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous Canada must follow specific principles. Join Matt Thorpe for a workshop that will focus on "How Does Reconciliation Speak To You?", discuss what is stopping us from really embracing this and what’s it going to take for it to create a powerful relationship so we can relate. Participants will share STORIES on this topic even got to be a challenge for the people of Canada.

Speaker Bio:
 
Matt is the Founder and Senior Director of M. Thorpe & Associates Inc., a company committed to Conflict Resolution, Learning Circles and Coaching Services. H is acutely aware of the need for cultural sensitivity whenever disputes occur between members of different communities and organizations. In mediations/facilitations, he places true value on humanness, which allows all participants not only to be heard, but also to gain a deeper awareness of fairness, honesty and interpersonal responsibility.
 
His work has involved working with victims and offenders, unions and management, human rights complainants, federal and provincial courts, hospital staff and management, teachers and students, family and Aboriginal community members; each case posing specific, and in some ways, unique challenges.
 
His is frequently invited as a special advisor and keynote speaker at various forum and national conferences. Some of the topics include Positive Lifestyle Choices, Embracing and Celebrating Diversity, Power and Freedom Through Story and Stress Management. One of my most exciting keynotes was the very first World Summit of Indigenous Entrepreneurs and the World Mediation Summit in Madrid, Spain.
