Drum roll, please...
The Illuminate team is ecstatic to introduce a new edition to our current events: the 2020 NATIONAL HIGH SCHOOL LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE, in partnership with the Ted Rogers MBA Women in Leadership Association and our long-time partner, Deloitte Canada.
At Illuminate Universe, we strive to prepare students for the professional workplace and believe in experiential learning. NHLC will encompass these characteristics, with hands-on learning workshops that highlight problem-solving techniques—differentiating from the analytical and technical approach that is fostered at NHBC.
Why leadership?
For the past four years, Illuminate Universe has hosted the renowned National High School Business Conference: an event that challenges students to think creatively through a technology-related corporate study.
As a team, we wanted to take a different approach from the traditional Business Conference and provide an additional opportunity that enables students to enhance their interpersonal skills—skills that are essential in both the professional and community setting. At Illuminate Universe, we believe that the power of being a leader extends beyond its title; it requires proactive thinking, being readily available to help team members and most importantly, empowering those around you. In a professional setting, leadership is imperative for fostering an inclusive workplace and maximizing efficiency when fulfilling corporate goals.
