Helios Consulting Podcast Network

Our podcast this week is an important one - and one that's very near to our hearts and spirits. This episode brings Senior Partner & Chief Change Officer, Kait Dinunzio together with Candice Robertson-Schattler, Vice President of Steel River Group to share a discussion around the truth of what Indigenous, Metis and Inuit people have experienced and continue to experience as a result of colonization. Candice shares personal stories and insights, and provides listeners with ideas on how they can act as stronger allies and support truth and reconciliation to continue the healing process of our Nation. 

Let's not allow truth and reconciliation to be "single day" observation - let's move it from discussion to action, embracing and acknowledging the truth of the past and working together toward what reconciliation means. Please click through and listen to this heartfelt and loving discussion while you reflect on what Orange Shirt Day means to you and what you and your family or business can do to support the ongoing efforts around this crucial aspect of our Canadian culture.

Pocket Change is a faster-paced off-shoot of our regular podcast series. In this series, our Senior Partner and Chief Change Officer, Kait Dinunzio facilitates conversations and thought leadership around the complexities of change, emotional/social intelligence and human behaviour. These conversations dive into how to prepare, implement and anchor change with a neurological, mental health and resiliency lens applied.
 
 In this episode Kait and our PMO Practice Lead and Partner, Theunis discuss the synergies of change leadership and project management. Theunis and Kait share individual experiences as to why change is not only an important facet but an integral part of Project Management and how the two complement one another in a "back to back" fashion.

In this episode Kait and Dwight Thompson discuss how connection and gratitude play important roles in the development of change. They share examples from projects they've worked on how change becomes easier for stakeholders when gratitude and connection are a part of a robust Stakeholder Engagement Strategy. 

During the podcast, Dwight and Kait discuss resources and books that listeners may be interested to consider when looking to improve opportunities for connection and gratitude:
