To me, it's about how people ultimately feel about their Georgian experience – not only our students but employees, alumni, donors and partners too. Besides leveraging technology, how else is Georgian delivering on its North Star? We're striving to create a teaching and learning environment where everyone feels seen, heard, valued and knows they belong. Where every voice is welcome and matters. We want everyone to be empowered to show up as their true selves. We're also focused on collaboration, creativity, teamwork and extending empathy and kindness – qualities we're instilling in our students as Canada's first and only Ashoka U designated changemaker college. Changemaking is part of Georgian's DNA. It's evident in numerous ways, from how we partner with community and industry to solve challenges, to the work we're doing on our journey of Truth and Reconciliation, to our efforts to tackle the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. I believe this innovative, caring and solution- focused mindset will ensure we continue to make positive change and achieve unrivaled, together. How is Team Georgian managing all this change? We're a learning institution and I tell the team we're here to grow, take risks, make mistakes and iterate, like our students. Wayne Gretzky once said, "Skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been…" and that's what we're doing – anticipating and evolving to provide the education and experience those we serve expect and deserve from us. | Convocation (October 2022). 26 GEORGIANVIEW SPRING 2023 UNRIvALED ExPERIENCE
