Keynote Speakers

Opening Keynote: Heather Moyse
Heather Moyse is a Two-Time Olympic Gold Medalist and an Advocate For Human Achievement.
Two-time Olympic gold medalist and three-sport athlete Heather Moyse is an ambassador, a role model, and a champion. Representing Canada’ s national teams in bobsleigh, rugby, and cycling, Heather is arguably Canada’ s best all-round female athlete, ever. Living by her personal motto,“ believe in the possibilities”, Heather inspires people to go after all of their dreams.
Heather will deliver an inspiring talk on‘ Changes and Challenges: Obstacles or Opportunities?’ You have the dream. You have the drive and the dedication. You are well on your way to reaching your pinnacle of success. When, suddenly, something goes wrong. Something changes. You are faced with challenges that are blocking your view of the finish line. Problems are inevitable in sport, in business, and in life. But when you are faced with change, do you see it as an obstacle blocking your path to success? Or do you embrace it as a challenge and see it as an opportunity?
With powerful insight and personal anecdotes of overcoming her own obstacles on route to the top of the Olympic podium, Heather discusses the qualities it takes to move beyond what seemingly stands in our way to achieving our own successes, whatever the arena. You will leave this presentation ready to embrace change and overcome obstacles.
