Working with Reconciliation – A Four-Part Series
May 5 - 26, 2022
Register for this exciting four-part Webinar Series:
Join us on every Thursday in May from 12 pm to 1 pm to learn from Solomon Reece (Indige Corp). He will provide a series of four Indigenous relationship building sessions to members of the Real Estate Institute of British Columbia (REIBC). These sessions will help members to understand the Indigenous business environment and how to better relate to the Indigenous experience and how to work effectively in that context.
The format for these sessions will be a 30-minute presentation followed by a 30-minute questions and answer period, in keeping with REIBC ‘Lunch and Learn’ program.
- May 5: The Art of the Introduction: Learning how to locate yourself in an Indigenous context
- May 12: Planning for Success: Understanding the unique business environment First Nations now occupy
- May 19: Two-Eyed Seeing: An introduction to the concept of Two-Eyed Seeing, seeing things from both an Indigenous and non-Indigenous Lens
- May 26: Reciprocal Relationships: Learning how to share skills to build better relationships
This is your opportunity to have questions answered. Questions can be sent in advance to bsoutham@reibc.org or you can ask them in the Q&A session of the webinar. Either is perfectly acceptable.
Registration for each session ends the day before the session.
