On the 22nd of June, in the virtual room, we'll be giving to you, new ways of thinking, not more to do!
Bringing you:
2 local guest presenters: Erin Goodyear, ED Choices and Rohan Thompson, Dufferin County Director, People and Equity
2 guest facilitators:
Mary Harvey has over thirty-five years of experience in communication training, corporate creative writing, and facilitation. She has worked with a diverse client base of healthcare providers, entrepreneurs, politicians, not-for-profit organizations, and national corporations.
An earlier career in professional theatre gave Mary a variety of tools to make educational experiences entertaining. She was with the Second City Touring Company for three years. As Andrea Martin’s understudy, she had the pleasure of performing on stage with John Candy, Dan Ackroyd and Catherine O’Hara, to drop a few names. Mary has been using Improv techniques ever since to help people find their unique voice, express themselves clearly, and think faster on their feet, in a fun, safe environment.
One of her clients had this to say:
"Mary Harvey took a bunch of detail oriented, introspective, and pragmatic physicians and transformed them into existential optimists within an hour. We laughed, we played and we learned to live in the moment. Thank you Mary!"
- Alykhan Abdulla President of the Academy of Medicine Ottawa

"I highly recommend attending the next DC MOVES Forum! Guest speaker Hildy Gotlieb is the head of an organization called Creating the Future and the creator of Catalytic Thinking. I’ve had the privilege of working with Hildy and learning from her – I am not exaggerating when I say that the practice of Catalytic Thinking has changed my way of approaching almost any challenge I face as a leader!" Norah Kennedy, Executive Director FTP
"Working together on the big issues that face the people of our communities is important. It’s not only about avoiding duplication or siloed thinking in service delivery. This collegial network infuses our work with creativity, empathy and a sense of teamwork toward a greater purpose that serves us all. It helps us stay informed about who is doing what across the many different touch-points that a human may encounter through their journey accessing services. The DC MOVES forums always re-energize us by providing the opportunity to pause, look at the bigger picture with our peers, identify and help remove barriers, and to get informed, constructive input and context from each other. These relationships are key to nurturing a strong, resilient Dufferin. "
Jennifer Payne, Executive Director, HCIA
"The DCMOVES forums are such a great way to stay connected and find out new things happening in the service community. As a member of the Leadership Committee, I strongly encourage you to invest the time in attending the upcoming forum, which is chock full of great info and resources."
Trish Keachie, DC MOVES Leadership Table
