Success Stories:

How can our new Opening Doors program benefit you? Hear from other WCT program participants.

“The WTC Alberta Change Agent Program was a powerful and educational commitment to learning more about supporting diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging in corporate environments. Participating in this program allowed me to step out of my comfort zone, build my network, and examine the tools and actionable steps to make meaningful change for a positive impact. Becoming a change agent was a fun and informative way to build community and an invaluable resource on which I will continue to build my knowledge.”

Brittany
Value Creation Manager, Ziing Mindful Mobility, 2023 Participant

“Through my participation in this program and the invaluable opportunity to learn from a diverse group of individuals, and industry expert guest speakers, I have come to truly appreciate and believe in the significance of my own lived experiences. As a woman, a person of color, the daughter of an immigrant, the mother of a non-binary child, and having started my career in a male-dominated industry while also being part of a linguistic minority, I know I bring a distinct and valuable perspective to the table.”

Nancy
Manager, PMO, Telus, 2023 Participant

“The program was an incredible opportunity to meet stellar individuals at various stages of success and leadership in their careers. I learned that diversity, equity and inclusion can be interpreted as a “better together” approach to growth. Since the program, I have taken these lessons back to my team and as a team leader, have strived to lead by example as a strong advocate and agent of positive, inclusive change.”
