 rship: The Personal Toll - "What does crisis leadership actually cost yo
 u?” --\n\n-- November 18, 2026 @12:30 - 13:30 EST --\n\nIn moments of 
 crisis, leaders are expected to project calm, provide direction, and mak
 e critical decisions under intense pressure. While much attention is pai
 d to the operational response, far less is said about the personal impac
 t these experiences can have on those leading through them.\n\nIn this S
 isters in Service conversation, participants will explore the often-unse
 en toll of crisis leadership, including the emotional residue that can l
 inger long after an incident has ended, the cumulative effects of decisi
 on fatigue, and the challenges of carrying responsibility while maintain
 ing a composed public presence. Through candid discussion and shared exp
 eriences, we will examine strategies for sustaining resilience, processi
 ng difficult events, and supporting ourselves and one another through th
 e demands of leadership in extraordinary circumstances.\n\nJoin us for a
 n open conversation about the human side of crisis leadership—and what
  it takes to carry the weight of command while continuing to lead effect
 ively.\n\nHosted By: Deputy Chief Trish Ferguson, M.O.M., Ottawa Police

 Who do you talk to when you can’t talk to anyone?” --\n\n-- January 
 13, 2027 @12:30 - 13:30 EST --\n\nLeadership can be deeply rewarding, bu
 t it can also be surprisingly isolating. As responsibilities grow and th
 e stakes become higher, many leaders find themselves with fewer places t
 o turn for candid advice, honest feedback, or simply a safe space to wor
 k through challenges.\n\nIn this Sisters in Service conversation, partic
 ipants will explore the unique realities of leadership isolation, includ
 ing managing uncertainty and self-doubt while maintaining confidence, na
 vigating difficult decisions, and building trusted networks of support. 
 Through open discussion and shared experiences, we will examine practica
 l strategies for cultivating meaningful peer relationships and creating 
 the trusted inner circles that help leaders thrive.\n\nJoin us for a can
 did conversation about one of leadership's least discussed challenges—
 and the connections that can make all the difference.\n\nHosted By: Sup
 erintendent Nadine Wagner, M.O.M., Calgary Police Service\n\nRegister No

 --------\n\n-- Ambition—Still Allowed? - "How do you talk about wanti
 ng more, when you’re already at the top?” --\n\n-- March 24, 2027 @1
 2:30 - 13:30 EST --\n\nFor many women leaders, ambition is celebrated ea
 rly in their careers but becomes more complicated as they advance. Expec
 tations shift, opportunities narrow, and expressing a desire for somethi
 ng more can sometimes be met with scrutiny or misunderstanding.\n\nIn th
 is Sisters in Service conversation, participants will explore what ambit
 ion looks like at senior levels of leadership and how it evolves over th
 e course of a career. Together, we will discuss navigating perceptions a
 nd potential backlash, redefining personal and professional success, and
  finding purpose and growth after reaching goals that once seemed distan
 t. Whether your next chapter involves greater leadership, new challenges
 , mentorship, or something entirely different, this session offers an op
 portunity to reflect on what comes next—and to give yourself permissio
 n to pursue it.\n\nJoin us for an honest discussion about ambition, fulf
 illment, and continuing to grow long after you've "made it."\n\nHosted b
 y: Chief Constable Fiona Wilson, O.O.M., Victoria Police Department\n\n
