SUMMARY:Leading Tough Conversations: Communicating Change Calmly and Clearly
DESCRIPTION:Whether you lead a corporate team\, run your own business\, or manage a household\, hard conversations are part of leadership.\n\n\n 	\nRaising prices\n 	\nSetting boundaries\n 	\nDelivering difficult feedback\n 	\nNavigating conflict\n 	\nCommunicating a change to clients\, teams\, partners\, or even family\n\n\nFor many women\, these conversations feel heavy. Not because we lack capability\, but because we care. We want to protect relationships. We want to be clear without being harsh. We want to lead without losing connection.\n\nThis workshop offers practical\, structured tools to communicate difficult messages with calm authority and emotional attunement in both professional and personal settings.\n\nParticipants will learn how to:\n\n\n 	\nShift from “talking at” to creating real dialogue\n 	\nReduce resistance by acknowledging the impact\n 	\nStructure change conversations clearly and confidently\n 	\nRegulate themselves before and during high-stakes discussions\n 	\nAvoid overexplaining\, over apologizing\, or shrinking\n\n\nBlending communication strategy with nervous system awareness\, this session equips women to lead conversations with steadiness and strength — in boardrooms\, in client meetings\, and at home.\n\nBecause clear\, grounded communication isn’t just a soft skill.\nIt’s a life skill and a leadership advantage.\n\nAbout our trainer Lisa Gu \nLisa Gu is a Life and Divorce Transformation Coach\, Change Communication Consultant\, and speaker who helps women navigate big life transitions with clarity\, courage\, and grounded self-leadership.\nAfter navigating her own traumatic divorce and\, more recently\, an unexpected job loss\, Lisa rebuilt her life and business by integrating practical communication strategy with deep inner work. She now supports women moving through divorce\, career pivots\, and major life changes — helping them reconnect with themselves and lead from within.\n\nWith over 15 years of experience in corporate communications\, Lisa has worked with organizations in the financial sector to bring clarity and connection during times of change. She equips leaders with structured\, human-centred communication tools that build trust\, reduce resistance\, and strengthen performance.\n\nIn addition to her consulting work\, Lisa is a Certified Yoga Teacher and lifelong student of the mind–body–spirit connection. She weaves clarity\, empathy\, and radical candour into everything she does\, creating spaces where women communicate boldly\, lead authentically\, and live in alignment with their highest truth.\n\n.

SUMMARY:How Women Leaders and Business Owners Are Winning Back Their Time with AI Integration
DESCRIPTION:Program: Productivity & Scale Mastery Program for Women LeadersTopic: Winning Back Time with AI IntegrationDate: Wednesday\, April 29\, 2026Time: 12:30 – 1:30 p.m. Eastern Standard TimeFormat: Virtual Leadership Roundtable \nPresented by: Marlene Sebastian · People & Tech Canada \nYou didn’t start your business to spend your evenings copying data between spreadsheets. But for most women entrepreneurs\, that’s exactly where the hours go — not into the work they’re brilliant at\, but into the administrative layer holding everything together by hand.\n\nThis practical\, non-technical workshop cuts through the hype and the fear to answer the question most AI conversations never get to: what can this actually do for my business\, starting this month?\n\nAttendees will walk through the real cost of manual work — not just in time\, but in energy\, decisions\, and growth opportunities quietly slipping by. We’ll address something most speakers skip: why Canadian skepticism of AI is completely valid\, and how to evaluate these tools without surrendering your data\, your privacy\, or your professional judgment. Then we get specific — three categories of work that almost every service business can automate right now\, without a developer and without a new software budget.\n\nThe session closes with a 20-minute facilitated activity: The $10\,000 Audit. Each attendee maps their own business tools\, identifies where data falls through the cracks\, and calculates the dollar value of what that manual work is actually costing them annually. Most people in the room discover a number between $8\,000 and $25\,000. They leave with that number — and a clear picture of exactly where it’s coming from.\n\nKey talking points: \n\n 	the real cost of doing-it-manually\n 	why Canadian AI skepticism is both valid and costly\n 	3 things every small business can automate this month\n 	what “human-in-the-loop” means and why it protects you\n 	a hands-on calculation every attendee completes in the room\n\nTakeaway: Every attendee leaves with a completed audit worksheet and a personal shortlist of automation opportunities. All attendees receive a complimentary 90-minute Tech Audit with Marlene — a structured\, no-obligation conversation that maps a clear path from insight to action for their business.
