The Edmonton Chapter of CIOCAN invites you to a new ‘Thought Leadership’ stream, focusing on transformation execution.
This initial in-person session, Storytelling will be led by Dean Doige and Rita Lazar-Tippe, two veteran members of the CIO Association of Canada, who bring a powerhouse combination of 60 years of IT leadership experience to the table.
Transformation succeeds when leaders can align people quickly, choose decisively, focus scarce capacity, and scale execution. This hands‑on series gives IT executives the operating system to do exactly that.
Across four fast‑paced sessions, you’ll bring a real transformation initiative, apply the frameworks live, and leave each session with artifacts you can reuse. If you’re ready to move from “strategy in slides” to “value in production,” this series is for you.
Refreshment and light snacks will be available
Open to Members & *Qualified Non-Member Guests(*CIOs, CISOs, Senior Level IT Executives in a Leadership Role)
Special Note: Attendees will be met in the Lobby of the Sunlife Building and provided access to the 14th floor where the event will be held
