Community as a Means to AdvancementThe Canadian Innovation Centre for Mental Health in the Workplace, in partnership with the Black Employees Network (BEN) of the Department of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED), invites you to embrace diversity and inclusion by participating in a session on "Community as a Means to Advancement," led by Dr. Ofosu.
In this session, we will focus on establishing and maintaining a community that centers on Black perspectives, taking into account both internal and external factors. We will highlight the importance of connecting with others and discuss the benefits of engaging with the Black Employees Network (BEN) to help reduce feelings of isolation in remote and hybrid work environments. Additionally, we will explore how being part of a supportive community can enhance career opportunities and provide avenues for sponsorship and mentorship. Dr. Ofosu will also address challenges such as tokenism and impostor syndrome, examining strategies for self-protection and emphasizing the importance of identifying effective and loyal allies to support career development.
Dr. Helen Ofosu has been practicing Industrial and Organizational Psychology in both the public and private sectors for over 20 years. In addition to Career and Executive Coaching, her specialties include assessing and developing leadership skills and addressing complex issues such as workplace bullying, harassment, equity, diversity and inclusion. In 2012, she founded I/O Advisory Services Inc., where she offers Executive Coaching, Human Resources Consulting, and speaking and training services.
All federal public servants at all levels with a focus on Black employees and allies.

Cette séance portera sur la création et la préservation d'une communauté centrée sur les perspectives des Noirs, en tenant compte de facteurs internes et externes. Nous mettrons en exergue l'importance d'établir des liens avec les autres et nous discuterons des avantages de s'impliquer dans le Réseau des employés noirs (REN) pour aider à atténuer le sentiment d'isolement dans les milieux de travail éloignés et hybrides. En outre, nous verrons comment le fait de faire partie d'une communauté de soutien peut améliorer les perspectives de carrière et offrir des possibilités de parrainage et de mentorat. La Dre Ofosu abordera également certains défis, comme la diversité de façade et le syndrome de l'imposteur, en présentant des stratégies d'autoprotection et en faisant valoir l'importance de trouver des alliés efficaces et loyaux susceptibles de soutenir le développement de carrière.
La Dre Helen Ofosu pratique la psychologie industrielle et organisationnelle dans les secteurs public et privé depuis plus de 20 ans. Outre l'accompagnement professionnel et le coaching pour les cadres, elle s'est spécialisée dans l'évaluation et le renforcement des compétences en matière de leadership et dans la résolution de problèmes complexes, tels que l'intimidation, le harcèlement, l'équité, la diversité et l'inclusion en milieu de travail.

The Repercussions of False Indigenous Identity ClaimsThe rise of false Indigenous identity claims is sparking critical discussions around the implications of these claims and the challenges of giving space to Indigenous voices and perspectives.
Participants will come to better understand the legal and ethical implications of false Indigenous identity claims and how those claims have a deep impact on Indigenous Peoples and communities.
Répercussions des fraudes à l’identité autochtoneLa hausse des fraudes à l’identité autochtone suscite des discussions nécessaires relativement aux conséquences de telles fraudes ainsi qu’à la difficulté de donner l’espace nécessaire aux voix et aux points de vue autochtones. Cet événement permettra d’examiner les répercussions culturelles, sociales, économiques et politiques des fraudes à l’identité autochtone ainsi que leurs effets néfastes quant aux efforts déployés par les peuples autochtones pour préserver leur patrimoine, avoir accès aux ressources essentielles et faire valoir leurs droits.
