Before European influences, there are historical references to people who embody both male and female whether it be in terms of gender identity or sexual identity," said [James McNinch]. "Certainly we know that what was labeled as "deviants" by Europeans was in fact honoured by traditional, pre-contact Aboriginal tribes. "What happened with the European churches coming in was that this is just another example of the colonial destruction of our culture," said McNinch. "Some of these values and this celebration of sexual difference and gender identity has been lost and with tragic results." "I want to see it move from Saskatoon to Regina and maybe move to other locations like Prince Albert," said McNinch. "Because if it just sticks to Saskatoon it doesn't necessarily reach out to youth ...
As [Gary Bettman] said (Friday) night when he was asked in [Estevan], he said, 'Look, I'm not going to say it's an NHL market, I haven't done any of the research but I'm not prepared to say it's not,' " [Brian Burke] reported. On his blog, blogmaverick.com, Cuban takes shots at [Wade], who said on Thursday: "[Dirk Nowitzki] says they gave us the championship last year, but he's the reason they lost the championship, because he wasn't the leader that he's supposed to be in the closing moments. That's because of great defence by us, but also he wasn't assertive enough as a leader's supposed to be. * "I guess you have earned the right to criticize Dirk with an obvious display of your own leadership skills. I know Shaq O'Neal appreciates your leadership as well. He called out your team a ...

For the past four years, our employees have been engaged in a constant state of change as we developed new products, expanded our capacity and created efficiencies by introducing new equipment technology. We've clearly experienced some growing pains along the way in terms of clarifying responsibilities, accountabilities and overall expectations. You can't always establish a preset policy for a piece of equipment that's coming in when you don't know exactly how it will be integrated on the floor and implemented into your process. As we grow, there are challenges and we are constantly at the steep end of the learning curve. But because we have been in this state of change for an extended period, our people are more accepting of change, adapting to the challenges and, I believe, comfortabl...

This book, written by three well-known experts in the science, practice, and teaching of CBT, aims to provide a bridge between manualized CBT and the theory and knowledge of group process factors in order to understand how CBT can be most productively operationalized within a group context. Throughout this excellent book, the authors convey the message that attention to process in CBT groups is as necessary to a successful group experience as knowing how to teach basic CBT skills. They provide specific guidance about how to use the properties of groups to facilitate learning of concepts and strategies in order to maximize change. They also provide information about structuring groups, effective leadership skills, and how to manage many of the common challenges associated with group proc...
The one day event, held in Saskatoon Sept. 22, was designed to develop leadership skills and partnerships for women who work and volunteer in Saskatchewan's mainstream and Aboriginal sport and recreation systems. More than 100 women participated in the conference, which was thought to be the province's first official gathering of women in sport. Sponsors included the Government of Saskatchewan's centennial program, Sask Sport, the Canadian Association for the Advancement of Women in Sports (CAAWS), Saskatchewan in motion and the Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation Association (SPRA). Because 2005 is the Year of First Nations and Metis Women, the roles and accomplishments of Aboriginal women were highlighted throughout the day. We're role models whether we want to be or not. We can either...
Professional associations like the Appraisal Institute of Canada need to focus on doing the right things and doing them the right way. As simple as this may sound, it requires considerable insight as well as strong leadership and management skills to achieve. The process of developing a strong and relevant organization is often referred to as capacity building, and it is defined as the ability of non-profit organizations to fulfill their missions in an effective manner. Capacity building begins with a strategic plan. It also entails the development of a strong and effective leadership. A third and highly important element of capacity building that results in strong associations is the ability to reach out to members and stakeholders. Member services have traditionally been used as the y...
It's a chance for him to experience life in the country, canoeing, hiking," she says. "It's a chance for him to learn leadership skills, some independence, and he can grow up a little bit. "Two years in row now we've been able to send over 800 kids to camp, which is really good," said Bryan Ezako, executive director of the Manitoba Camping Association. "We're incredibly happy with that." "It's important that donations come in all season long, otherwise we might have to limit the number of kids who can go to camp in future years," Ezako said. "That's something we don't want to have to do."

I feel that having the opportunity to be a professional at my sport, something that I can't do in North America, helps me in a number of ways," [JOEY JOHNSON] said from Germany via email. "First, being able to train all the time lets me stay in good physical shape. And also, being the captain of my club team here in Germany helps me with my leadership skills, which I can transfer back to playing with the Canadian team. "Going into the worlds as defending champs I think would normally put more pressure on us to win," he said. "Right now, I think we have a good mix of vets and young players, and as a vet, I don't feel the pressure is on to repeat, because of the changes and a new head coach."
