SUMMARY:2022 Indigenous Awareness Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Economic reconciliation is estimated to boost the Canadian Economy by $27.7 Billion. Economic prosperity is found through relationships of mutual respect and by working together for all Canadians to enjoy the same social and economic outcomes.\n\n\n\nThis one day course is designed to enhance understandings in an effort to build trusting and respectful relationships with Indigenous people. Often\, these new understandings result in the ability to better develop\, implement\, and maintain collaborative agreements and partnerships for mutual benefit and to enhance human resource relations.\n\n\n\nMain topics will include:\n\n	Historical perceptions\n	Indigenous and Tribal Groups of Canada\n	Current legal and political issues\n	Societal organizations/structures\n	Stereotypes and myths\n	Truth and reconciliation\n	Local challenges and barriers\n\nTruth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) Call to Action #92:\n\n\n	We call upon the corporate sector in Canada to adopt the United Nations Declaration in the Rights of Indigenous peoples as a reconciliation framework and to apply it's principles\, norms\, and standards to corporate policy and core operational activities involving Indigenous peoples and their lands and resources.\n\nLunch will be provided.\n\n\n\nThe workshop will be facillitated by Shelly Mandeville\n\n\n\nShelly Mandeville is a CEO and co-founder of three companies operating in the Northwest Territories (NWT) and Alberta. She was born in the NWT into a Dene-M tis family. During her formative years she watched and learned as her parents operated several small businesses\; however\, the greatest nurturer of Shelly's entrepreneurial spirit was her M tis grandfather. As a teen\, he would fascinate her with stories about the family-owned\, trading post\, warehousing and transportation company operating in the early 1900s and how\, in one fell-swoop\, everything was taken from him and the family due to the colonial policies of the time. His words became inspiration to her as she co-founded In Synch Consulting Inc. (ISCI)\, a boutique consulting business in 2008\; Naoka Incorporated\, servicing the oil and gas industry in 2011\; and Wildrose Contractor Supports Ltd.\, a bookkeeping and entrepreneur administrative support business in 2020. All of Shelly's businesses focus on the fundamentals of where she came from and on a better future for individuals and communities. Shelly is committed to leading change. Her entrance into the competitive\, male-dominated resource sector upon starting Naoka Inc.\, is further proof of her tenacity and resiliency.
