Leadership proved to be a popular topic at the third CIPH Ontario Region Business Meeting and annual general meeting held today (April 11, 2019) with more than 150 in attendance.
Keynote speaker Chris Cummins discussed the traits and actions of a good leader and challenged attendees to assess their own leadership style. The interactive session offered many pointers to managers in the audience.
He noted that “we hire for skill and fire for attitude. That is something we need to look at.” Skills can be taught, unlike attitude, asserted Cummins. He also reviewed the process of feedback and offered pointers on how to be more effective with employees.
CIPH will hold its annual business meeting in Charlottetown, PE on June 16 to 18 at the Delta Prince Edward Hotel.
