CPHR Manitoba's HR Conference 2018: Join the HRevolution takes place on October 23 & 24, 2018, at the RBC Convention Centre Winnipeg with a networking reception, an exciting line-up of 17 breakout sessions and four keynote speakers, including Denise Ryan, Motivational Speaker. Join Denise in a passionate discussion about Re-Igniting your Passion for HR: You can’t lead a revolution if you’re not on fire! It’s hard to stay motivated with our fast-paced, high responsibility jobs. It can be tough when during the good times, no one thinks, “Our HR department is doing such a great job!” but the minute there’s a problem, it’s “What is HR going to do about this?” It’s easy to lose enthusiasm and get burned out, stressed out, and finally – checked out. This high-energy session gives attendees six steps for getting the fire back in their lives professionally and personally. It’s not just a motivational speech; it’s a method that attendees can use long after the conference is over. Viva la Revolution!
