SUMMARY:Not a Culture Problem\, but a Leadership One: Understanding\, Confronting\, and Dismantling Workplace Violence
DESCRIPTION: \n\nDate(s): July 7\, 2026  \nEvent Time: 2:00pm – 3:00pm\nVenue: Online\nCPD Hours: 1.0\n\n\nREGISTER BY JULY 5\n\n\n\n\nBullying. Harassment. Sexual abuse. We keep calling it a culture problem — and that framing is costing people their careers\, their health\, and sometimes their lives. This session strips away the euphemisms and calls workplace violence exactly what it is: a systemic failure with real victims and real consequences. Drawing on public health frameworks and organizational psychology\, HR and People leaders will leave with a sharper lens for identifying violence in all its forms\, the language to name it clearly\, and evidence-based strategies to actually stop it — not manage it\, not “address concerns\,” but stop it. No more soft landings for hard harm.\n \n\n\n\n\nPractice Level\n(Hover mouse over icon for details)\nCompetency\n\n\n      \n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n \n \nThank You to our Sponsor\,  \n\n\n\n\n  \nPresenter:\nDr. Jason Walker PsyD\, PhD\, CCAC\, CCI\, DAAETS\, SHRM-SCP\, CPHR\nProgram Director and Associate Professor\, Health and Wellness Psychology & Business Psychology at Adler University ( Click for Dr. Walker’s Bio)\n\n\nIn this webinar\, you will learn: \n\nDefine workplace violence comprehensively — including bullying\, harassment\, and sexual abuse — as a public health issue rather than an interpersonal conflict\nIdentify the behavioral\, organizational\, and systemic indicators that signal a workplace violence problem before it escalates\nApply evidence-based frameworks to assess organizational risk and intervene with precision and confidence\nDismantle the cultural myths\, minimizing language\, and HR habits that protect perpetrators and silence targets\nDesign proactive policies and response protocols that prioritize accountability over optics\n\n\n\n\n\n \nWho should attend:\nThis session is built for HR professionals\, People & Culture leaders\, and organizational decision-makers who are done with surface-level responses to serious harm. Whether you’re navigating an active situation\, rebuilding trust after a failure\, or trying to get ahead of the risk — this is for the people with the power to change the system\, if they’re willing to use it.\n\n\n\nFormat: Live Online – Zoom WebinarAll login information will be sent to you via email the day prior to the session. Please check your junk/spam folder if it has not come through to your in-box.\nNote: If you have not received your login access information the day prior to the webinar date\, please email pd@cphrbc.ca or sign-in to your CPHR BC & Yukon Portal (under “My Events”) for the webinar instructions.\nBoth registration and payment are required for every person attending this webinar.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar is complimentary to all CPHR BC & Yukon members.

SUMMARY:The Company You Keep: Why Great Leaders Don’t Go It Alone
DESCRIPTION:Leadership can be lonely. In fact\, 76% of founders report feeling lonely\, and half of CEOs say the same. HR and people leaders often experience their own version of that isolation—supporting everyone else while having few places to turn to themselves. \nThe strongest leaders don’t succeed by carrying everything alone. They intentionally build trusted networks that help them make better decisions\, navigate challenges with confidence\, and stay resilient under pressure. \nThe session opens with a live\, anonymous pulse check\, giving attendees a chance to reflect on their own support systems while revealing the shared realities of leadership across the audience. Megan will then introduce her Support System Framework\, guiding attendees through a practical exercise they can complete during the session to map the people already supporting them and identify the relationships that will help them grow as leaders. \nYou’ll leave with:\n\nA clear understanding of the five types of support every leader needs—and which one will have the greatest impact on you right now.\nYour own Support System Map\, built during the session\, identifying who you can lean on today and where to intentionally strengthen your network.\nA simple\, two-line message you can send this week to deepen an existing relationship or reconnect with someone who can support your growth.

SUMMARY:CPHR-NL Webinar: Beyond Burnout: Rethinking Workplace Wellness for Lasting Impact
DESCRIPTION:Beyond Burnout: Rethinking Workplace Wellness for Lasting Impact\n \nBurnout is often treated as an individual wellbeing issue\, with organizations investing in programs designed to help employees better manage stress\, build resilience or adopt healthier habits. But employee wellbeing is also shaped by the environment people work in every day. \nWorkload\, manager capability\, role design\, psychological safety\, change fatigue and organizational culture all influence an employee’s capacity to perform and stay engaged. \nIn this session\, Mandy King\, Founder and CEO of HEAL\, explores how HR leaders can move beyond symptom-focused wellness initiatives and take a more integrated approach to organizational health. Drawing on more than a decade of experience working with organizations across North America\, Mandy will share a practical framework for identifying the workplace conditions contributing to burnout and disengagement\, evaluating where current wellbeing strategies may be falling short\, and determining where HR and leadership can have the greatest impact. \nParticipants will leave with practical tools to assess organizational health\, engage senior leaders in the conversation\, and build workplace strategies that support employee wellbeing and sustainable performance. \n  \nMandy King\, CNP \nMandy King is a Certified Nutritional Practitioner (CNP) and Founder of HEAL\, a corporate wellness company delivering programs across North America focused on energy\, resilience\, and performance. Over the past decade\, she has worked with leading organizations including Google\, Unilever\, Bauer Hockey\, and PwC\, designing turnkey wellness challenges\, executive programs\, and education that drive measurable improvements in productivity\, engagement\, and stress management. \nWith a background that bridges corporate experience and holistic health\, Mandy brings a practical\, data-informed approach to addressing burnout and capacity at work. Her work has been featured in publications such as The Huffington Post and she is known for translating complex health concepts into simple\, actionable strategies that fit into demanding roles. \nToday\, Mandy partners with HR leaders and executive teams to reduce burnout risk\, strengthen leadership capacity\, and connect individual wellbeing to organizational performance through structured\, scalable programs. \nMandy holds a Bachelor of Commerce (BCom) from Queen’s University and is a Certified Nutritional Practitioner (CNP) through the Institute of Holistic Nutrition.

SUMMARY:From Individual Contributor to Leader: Helping Leaders Make the Shift
DESCRIPTION:Developing effective leaders starts with understanding where they need support. However\, leadership programs often focus on broad competencies and best practices without considering the individual patterns that may be helping\, or holding back\, the people you’re trying to develop. \nIn this webinar\, we’ll draw on data from the Work Personality Index® to explore a common organizational challenge: making the shift from succeeding as an individual contributor to succeeding through others.   \nYou’ll Learn:   \n\nThe challenge that many leaders don’t recognize in themselves \nThe implications of over-using and under-using various leadership skills  \nHow differences between leaders and their teams can create blind spots or misalignment  \nPractical strategies for helping leaders adapt their approach and become more effective \nHow personality insights can help you create more targeted\, individualized leadership development  \n\nJoin us for a look at the personality and behavioural patterns behind successful leadership development and what HR\, L&D\, and OD professionals can do to help leaders make that transition more effectively.   \nAbout the expert:\nJustin M. Deonarine is an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist with Psychometrics Canada. He specializes in the application of data-driven decision-making to areas such as selection\, leadership and corporate culture. He has worked with organizations around the world\, from local non-profits to multinational corporations.
