October 10, 2019

Our first Wellness Summit in 2019 focused on how we can empower organizations to create a culture of wellness, which enhances organizational performance. Together, we have the power to shift thinking from an individual level to a systems level. We want to trade traditional treatment approaches for successful prevention and holistic strategies, change outdated mindsets and support the adoption of evidence-based frameworks and guiding principles, which inspire unique approaches and positive outcomes on a global scale.

86 per cent felt empowered to build a healthy workplace culture.

90 per cent were motivated to build a more comprehensive wellness plan.

90 per cent were inclined to prioritize organization wellness.

The Wellness Summit – October 10, 2019 (The Renaissance Edmonton Airport Hotel)

What attendees are saying about The Wellness Summit

“

The day was so beneficial and provided a wonderful opportunity to hear new ways to implement wellness. It was presented in such a way that we could take things back to our workplace that felt 'doable'.

“

All of the speakers had things I could take away and use in my workplace, so I felt the whole day was very engaging. The panel was interesting, as hearing from local companies working on improving the wellness in their organization was inspiring.

“

I thoroughly enjoyed the summit. I was able to retain so much information and was very engaged the entire day (which is sometimes hard to do because it's a long day of learning). I will definitely be attending next year!

This event is delivered in collaboration with our partner, Tycoon Events.

Land acknowledgement

We begin by acknowledging that we are on traditional lands, referred to as Treaty 6, Treaty 7 and Treaty 8 territory, and all the people here are beneficiaries of these peace and friendship treaties.

This territory is the home for many Indigenous Peoples, including the Blackfoot, Cree, Dene, Saulteaux, Ojibwe, Stoney Nakota Sioux, and Tsuut’ina peoples, and the Métis Nation of Alberta and the Métis Settlements.

We respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, we acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and we dedicate ourselves to moving forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
