Number of Participants:Ā 15-20, or 40 or 80
Summary of Invitation, Context & Objectives:Ā Gayle Brady, HR Manager of Canadian Ski Patrol Greater Vancouver has invited Jonathan and Pinnacle Pursuits to work with the 15-20, or 40 or 80 staff, including members of the Executive Team, Advanced First Aid and On-Snow Instructors, Patrol Leaders, Team Leaders, and Assistant Team Leaders. It is a dedicated group of volunteers looking to grow their skill set.
Group Dynamics/Overview: Due to the diverse nature of the volunteer staff involved, there is a diverse range of backgrounds, approaches to professional standards, including the process of working with others and communicating and behaving respectfully and appropriately (some people might be considered āold schoolā). In the last few years standards have been lacking, in both hard skills and soft skills, and a revamp of the culture is critical to strengthen professionalism, pride, morale, and a sense of Ā safety and inclusivity.
Key Objectives/Deliverables:
As outlined on the initial request for proposalā¦Some of the goals we aim to achieve through this conference/retreat include:
- Mend existing divisions amongst our members, fostering a culture of collaboration, respect, and unity.
- Empower our team leaders and executives with enhanced leadership skills, equipping them to navigate challenges effectively and inspire their teams.
- Elevate the standards within our zone, ensuring excellence in safety and service delivery.
- Cultivate critical thinking skills among our leadership team to drive innovation and improvement within our organization
Additional/Associated topics (based on phone discussion), include:
- Positive mentorship
- Judgment & biases
- Inclusion, diversity, equity
- Open / resistant to change
- Stepping up & Taking Responsibility / Accountability for Process & Results
- Hierarchy /arrogance / ego vs. teamwork / inclusivity / service leadership
- Past culture / negative behaviours vs. actual professionalism & standards

We are all about people helping people!

OUR WHY:
WE BELIEVE...that in a world that is constantly changing in complexity, continues to grow in demands and expectations, and where ‘disconnect’ is becoming more prevalent, the same thread of humanness continues to run through each of us: the need and drive to be curious, learn, connect with others, understand and be understood, feel valued among peers, trust one another, take risks, challenge ourselves, live and work with purpose, and achieve. These qualitative experiences may be difficult to measure, but that does not undermine their importance; they have an enormous impact on personal growth, confidence, happiness, and overall performance and success in all areas of life. We believe that these are the most important qualities and values for both individuals and teams, and also for humanity as a whole.
At Pinnacle Pursuits, we dedicate our work and focus to the design and delivery of such experiences.
