Workshops
Developed by The Sinneave Family Foundation, The 6 Principles for Inclusion is a practical framework designed to support neuroinclusion in the workplace. These principles will help you build confidence in identifying and reducing barriers for neurodivergent individuals in the workplace. In this session, we’ll explore each of the Six Principles - Communication, Connection, Emotion, Flexibility, Structure, and Environment - and discuss practical strategies you can apply with each one to create a more neuroinclusive workplace. Participants will leave with tools, language, and actionable strategies to better support not only neurodivergent colleagues, but everyone you work with.
More information on Workshop #2 coming soon!
Speaker


Being part of the community has always been important to Paul, from coaching minor hockey and lacrosse, taking his staff to volunteer at the Food Bank and Habitat for Humanity, building homes for the homeless in Mexico and participating in Hockey for the Homeless Charity. In 2021 Paul attended an EO Global Leadership Academy and fueled by his passion for his daughter Ella who has down syndrome, the event sparked an idea to start a not-for-profit charity organization called Lil E Coffee Café. This vision is now a reality. Lil E is up and running and much more than a coffee café, it is brewing greatness by providing meaningful and productive employment opportunities to individuals with intellectual and development disabilities. Lil E currently has two locations in Canada, in Calgary and Toronto, along with two more locations in the works. Lil E BHAG (big hairy audacious goal) is to provide 10,000 career experiences!
Outside of the office he enjoys spending time with his family, traveling and staying active with sports such as hockey, golf, running and cycling. He is the past President and a past Board Member of the Entrepreneurs’ Organization and member of the Sinneave Foundation committee.
