Webinar: Inquisitive Minds Win

Webinar: Inquisitive Minds Win 

What has this pandemic taught you about yourself? If transparency and flexibility were not your thing pre-covid, you surely have seen that rigidity fails every time an unexpected change occurs.

Choose to be a fluid thinker and embrace an inquisitive, growth-based mindset. This will help to build trust in a world that’s a little sensitive right now!

Inquiry, understanding, self-awareness, and growth are four key aspects we'll cover to illustrate how great minds think alike... but Inquisitive Minds Win.

1. Have you made any bad assumptions in the past?
2. Have assumptions been made about you?
3. How has this impacted your project?
4. The post-pandemic world will be different. Be ready to navigate successfully

If you too have encountered these questions and scenarios while working in your team, then this talk is for you.

Objectives:

1. Emotional Intelligence – 4 pillars
2. Understanding – First self then others
3. Active listening – Ask then be quiet
4. Grow – Invite different perspectives

Learning Outcomes: 

• Identify assumptions;

• Embrace curiosity;

• Recognise growth.

After attending this webinar, you will be able to appreciate how self-awareness is key to leadership. This session provides insights into how leaders can build this into their daily practices, and how they can demonstrate its value in their team interactions. The best part - this applies not only in professional settings, but also in our everyday lives.

Presentation and Discussion Method:

On Zoom. Be open to applying examples from both your personal and professional lives.

About the Speaker:

Gurjit Mann Toor (LinkedIn)
Owner at PnG Builders, Manager at TC Energy, Board Member at Chamber of Commerce, Board Member at Project Management Institute SAC, Entrepreneur, Speaker, Artist.

Gurjit is always on the lookout to expand her horizons and uses her experiences to build breadth, perspective and foresight into both her personal and professional life. Clearly, she has more than a few things on the go... and it's all on purpose! Of course her 2 boys take the cake as her pride and joy, but her other positions don’t fall too far behind.

Leaning on the values of hard work and persistence that entrepreneurship demands, has always been a natural skill set for Gurjit. This was instilled in her at an early age by her parents who emigrated from India to England, where they got married, raised 3 children, and built multiple successful businesses from the ground up. The Mann family then moved to Canada when Gurjit was 13 years young, where the entrepreneurship mindset and journey not only continued but thrived. 

Having been born and raised in an environment where opportunity was always seen as a gift worth pursuing, Gurjit carries an innate passion for personal growth, which she fuels by embracing the challenges that arise from the nature of diverse and unfamiliar undertakings. This drive and motivation has led her down many rewarding paths. Frequently being the only woman in a university lecture theatre, or at a corporate table, was never seen as a source of constraint.

From programming as an intern to initiating startup businesses, she has not receded from any opportunity that has come knocking. Why? Because she believes that not trying is the worst thing you can do to yourself!

Gurjit offers some interesting and unconventional perspectives that will definitely give you food for thought.
