The day started with honouring various safety achievements at the Awards Ceremony. Our awards are to highlight the achievements of individuals and groups within our organization – Congratulations to all the winners.
The conference finished off the day with a presentation from Paul Huschilt – Seven Humour Habits for Workplace Wellness. It emphasized the importance of laughter and fun within the workplace, but also within our lives as safety professionals. We must work to overcome our challenges and provide our best service.
For me, rounding out the morning with announcing the winners of the Prevention Solutions Challenge was ideal.
I was truly impressed by this year’s conference speakers, events and organization. The National Committee approach to PDC planning is confirmed as the best direction, when conferences such as this are being held. Congrats to the dynamic team that worked so hard to put this one together.
One of the activities that all the board members try to do around the conference is to drop by the professional development courses before and after the conference to introduce ourselves to the group and chat at bit. Having these around the conference helps those attending make the most of their time, money and effort.
See you all next year at the PDC in Quebec City. If you are interested in submitting a proposal for presenting at this conference, please download the form under conference tab on the website and submit before November 15, 2007.
