This will not be your typical networking event! The allotted networking time is for planners and suppliers to meet in a speed networking environment. \nEach Supplier registered will need to purchase a table to find new opportunities. We invite planners to join this special event on a complimentary basis\, making new connections\, and expanding their network by interacting with one another in a more intimate setting. \nBy letting yourself be INSPIRED\, you become INSPIRING!! \nIt’s easy to forget these things when we’re busy\, stressed-out\, in a changing world\, or self-absorbed\, but they make all the difference in the culture we create for ourselves and our organization. \n“It’s the sum of all our choices (even the small ones) that will define who we’ll become and the impact we’ll have on others.” \nINSPIRE is based on 4 interconnected principles that give us a new language to talk about how we want to treat each other\, how we want to impact others and how to keep these ways of being in the front or our minds each day. \n\n \nMartin Lespérance \nHis dream is that people are happy in their work! His objective is to INSPIRE people to take action so that they are happy\, engaged and motivated\, and their organizations make a difference in the world. He is 50% humor\, 50% energy and 100% emotion. Martin Lespérance won the title of Inspirational Speaker of the Year 2023 at North America’s largest inspirational speaking competition\, Speaker Slam.

He’s worked as an artistic gymnastics coach\, a soldier-Medic in the Canadian Armed Forces Reserve\, a high-school science teacher\, an advisor with the Quebec Government Sports and Leisure Secretariat\, a national trainer with Bayer\, a national director of training and development with Essilor\, he also launched a revolutionary optical product on the Canadian market\, and he is certified in performance coaching with LMI. He is an expert communicator and an extremely passionate speaker. He knows how to light up a room full of participants and rouse their emotions to create memorable moments. He is enthusiastic\, forthright\, humorous\, pragmatic and intelligent. In recent years\, Martin has focused on giving inspirational trainings and keynotes to inspire teams achieve their ambitious goals\, create inspiring cultures and take action. He has inspired entrepreneurs in more than 20 countries including China\, Thailand\, all over Europe\, the United States and all across beautiful Canada. He hosts keynotes with creativity\, humour\, passion and generosity. \n  \nThis year\, we are honored to support Projets Autochtones du Québec (PAQ) by collecting small items for donation. Projets Auotchtones du Québec (PAQ) is an Indigenous organization that supports First Nations\, Inuit and Métis people facing housing insecurity in Tio’tià : ke / Montreal. Using a culturally appropriate approach based on empowerment and harm reduction\, we offer housing\, housing options and services that promote healing and well-being\, and strengthen community.

Ce ne sera pas votre événement d’affaires typique ! Le temps de réseautage alloué permettra aux planificateurs et aux fournisseurs de se rencontrer dans un contexte de « speed-dating » événementiel. \nChaque fournisseur inscrit devra acheter une table cocktail pour trouver de nouvelles occasions d’affaires. Nous invitons les planificateurs à se joindre gratuitement à cet événement unique pour créer d’excellentes relations\, élargir leur réseau professionnel\, tout en échangeant\, les uns avec les autres\, dans un cadre plus intime. \nEn vous laissant INSPIRER\, vous devenez INSPIRANT! \nIl est facile d’oublier ces choses lorsque nous sommes occupés\, stressés\, dans un monde en mutation ou égocentriques\, mais elles font toute la différence dans la culture que nous créons pour nous-mêmes et pour notre organisation. \n“C’est la somme de tous nos choix (même les plus petits) qui définira ce que nous deviendrons et l’impact que nous aurons sur les autres.” \nINSPIRE repose sur 4 principes interconnectés qui nous offrent un nouveau langage pour parler de la manière dont nous voulons nous traiter mutuellement\, de l’impact que nous voulons avoir sur les autres et de la manière de garder ces façons d’être à l’avant-plan de nos pensées chaque jour. \nCette année\, nous sommes honorés de soutenir les Projets Autochtones du Québec (PAQ) en collectant de petits objets pour faire un don. Projets Auotchtones du Québec (PAQ) est un organisme autochtone qui accompagne les Premières Nations\, les Inuits et les Métis confrontés à la précarité du logement à Tio’tià : ke / Montréal.
