Transforming Together: PIN announces 5th annual EDPG virtual symposium

GUELPH – PIN is announcing the fifth annual Executive Director Peer Group (EDPG) virtual symposium, which focuses on what’s ahead for the sector and how society can use its leadership to transform together.

“For leaders of organizations, senior leaders, leaders of volunteers and board members, the EDPG Symposium ‘Transforming Together’ offers expertise and engagement for the non-profit sector,” a Jan. 18 press release detailed.

PIN – the People and Information Network – has hosted an annual symposium for the local sector welcoming leaders to learn, connect and strengthen capacity.

The fifth annual EDPG Symposium will take place virtually on Jan. 25 from 9am to noon.

“In PIN’s Community Benefit Sector Survey: One Year Later, the findings remain clear; a convergence of issues as a result of COVID-19,” said executive director Kim Cusimano.

“Feedback indicated an appetite for opportunities around re-imaging, re-designing, re-visioning, partnerships and collaborations,” she added.

“This appetite has a buffet of opportunities for our community to work together in new and different ways.”

PIN officials say they are pleased to welcome “a stellar lineup of experts to explore what is ahead for the sector and how can we use our leadership to transform together.”

Transforming Together Symposium participants will hear from:

– Bruce MacDonald, CEO of Imagine Canada;

– Dr. Rebecca Sutherns, founder and CEO of Sage Solutions; and

– Kris Cummings, principal at DO/ABLE.
