C’mon @AirCanada don’t let me down this time. All I’m asking is a safe and on time trip. You’re normally excellent at the first but inconsistent with the second. #Saskatoonbound #businesstravel
We’ll soon be celebrating our 13th Canniversary and yet still get a thrill when celebrating our country-by-choice on this special day. #CanadaDay2023 Credit: The Canadian Indigenous Flag was designed by Curtis Wilson of the Wei Wai Kum First Nation near Campbell River.
Feeling brave today @AirCanada? Given what you put me and countless other passengers though in the last few days I figure you must be. #dobetter
Working towards a future where this will no longer be newsworthy. Employers NEED students to have maximum exposure to real world problems (experience). This should be the ‘default’ design of EVERY degree course no matter the level. #experiential #jobready
Students in a first year @UNB macroeconomics course applied what they’ve learned to real-world problems: bit.ly/3oYqPu6
Chicago seems to be showing its support for #TorontoPride 2023! Brought a smile to my face even though I’m 25 hours late arriving thanks to @AirCanada crew shortages and weather conditions. Will be playing catch up tomorrow and Tuesday at the #SNMMI2023 conference.
Can’t argue with this ‘shot’ (see what I did there?!) of Friday morning motivation from our local coffee shop #HappyFriday #lovewhatyoudo
Meeting finished early so stepped outside to stretch under the beautiful blossom of our apple tree #healthandwellness #resilience #ontario #spring
I would add the fact that we also need to stop continuing to build ‘Our Dad’s/Mom’s #Workforce’ if #Canada is to lead global #innovation and #growth. The workforce Canada needs is diverse, mobile and continually #reskilling and #upskilling through a variety of #skillingpathways.
Canada needs to stop looking in its protectionist rearview mirror, write Prof. Walid Hejazi with @danyassaf and Joe Manget, and embrace an end to the barriers to technological entrepreneurship. The column is online today from @StarBusiness thestar.com/business/opinion…
Must be having a #sensitiveday as I’m actually a little offended by the anonymous sign in name offered by @Mural this morning! 😉😂
Always a pleasure to speak with Dawne about @ot_talent’s partnership with @OntarioShores to build #workforce #capacity and #capability.
Rachel Sumner, Chief Executive Officer at @ot_talent and our own Dawne Barbieri, Vice President, Clinical Services and Research, joined Ep. 115 of #MindVine to discuss staff shortages and the development of micro-credentials for #mentalhealth #nursing.

Thanks @SteveOrsini for the invitation to join you at today’s important @energyontario event connecting key stakeholders working together to build a diverse #talentpipeline for #Canada’s #energy sector. Proud to represent @ot_talent. Thanks to @vbrescia for convening us all.
With thanks to @SteveOrsini for the kind invitation!
Our CEO @RASumner will be there and is very much looking forward to the discussion! #energy #workforce #capacity #capability #skills
A powerful reminder on this #IWD2023 of the work still be done to ensure ALL HUMANS matter. In the context of the workplace strong validation of the critical importance of #skillsbasedhiring for #EDI. Proud to be part of that movement at @ot_talent #wearetalent
Gloria Steinem dedicates her life to ensuring we know that we are not broken, but were born into a system intended to break us.
She lives in the DNA of millions who are giving birth to movements or to themselves.
Please join @GloriaSteinem & us today at apple.co/3KZHC8v
Lots to be thankful for tonight as I wind down from a wonderful day representing @ot_talent at #CNA2023 #Day1 Not least for the opportunity to work with organizations who are focused on enabling #Canada to achieve its #NetZero goals #workforce #transition #capacity #capability
Hey @Dean_Sprott things are looking good back at base while you’re away! Strange visiting today and not seeing you but excited to do so in the very near future. Thx to @DavidJHornsby for the time and the tour of the incredible new learning space on campus. Congrats @Carleton_U !
It’s a post secondary focused morning for me kicking off with a great breakfast meeting with Dean Hansen of @sait McPhail School of Energy. Next up off to @Carleton_U to meet @DavidJHornsby for a good ol’ catch up and an exploration of new opportunities together! #gratitude
Kudos to the @VIA_Rail staff member who unwittingly picked me this morning to be trained in emergency train door opening and endured my questions about their workforce development strategy. And 👀 I got a #badge albeit an analogue one #skillsdevelopment
Ottawa bound for #cna2023 Ahead of all of that, excited to meet local @OT_alumni tonight and learn how they’re thinking about their #jobreadiness and how @ot_talent can help. #skillsdevelopment #meaningfulemployment
Can’t tell you how joyful it was to FINALLY meet @DaveShorey in person at today’s @electricityHR Awards of Excellence event. I’ll just say it’s been a long time coming and I’m glad there are no photos of the moment as I fear I may have been a little over excited 🤦🏻♀️ #whome
