At TEC Canada, we don’t select speakers. We handpick thought leaders and industry experts who have the power to transform perspectives and ignite change. Every TEC Speaker goes through a rigorous onboarding process, ensuring that only the crème de la crème join our vibrant community of professional speakers.
Why do we do this? Because we understand that in today’s rapidly evolving business landscape, there’s no room—or time—for outdated content and presentations you’ve heard before. That’s why TEC Speakers don’t just relay information; they create interactive experiences and hands-on workshops addressing the most timely issues confronting Canadian business leaders today.
By bringing together the most dynamic speakers, we provide TEC Canada members with abundant opportunities for connection, growth, and learning.
Please join us in warmly welcoming these thought leaders and industry experts to the TEC Speaker community:
Carol Schulte: Building Braver Leaders, Creating Braver Cultures
Carol Schulte has surveyed thousands of leaders over the years, and asks this one question: What would you do if you were even braver? And whether it’s the frontline manager or the CEO, everyone always has an answer. Because the truth is, we all want to be braver. ‘And the good news,’ Carol shares, ‘is brave can be taught.’
She discloses the elements that make up a B.R.A.V.E. workplace culture, where people bring all of who they are to all of what they do—and where they get into action before they feel ready. Braver cultures translate to bolder ideas being shared, more creative collaboration, and a team unleashing their collective potential.
