Executive Councils

Make lasting connections.

By invite only, our councils bring together multi-sectoral Canadian thought leaders in a confidential, closed-door setting. Connect with peers from the public and private sectors, as well as academia and not-for-profit, and build your strategic network.

Our self-governed and vendor-free environment allows for candid sharing of leading and next practices. Multiple lenses on topics of mutual interest and concern create unparalleled peer-to-peer learning for members and enable discussions to narrow in on mutual interests and common challenges.

Recognizing the strong need to collaborate with colleagues in other organizations who are committed to leveraging diversity and inclusion, we have found CIWE to be an excellent forum for dialogue, learning, and sharing best practices.
