December 20, 2020 | By Grace Bergen - Director

We hope that the close of 2020 is finding you safe and healthy, and that 2021 slowly and surely finds the return to normalcy.  That will certainly boost the definition of "appreciation"!

Board of Directors Meeting
In late-November, the Board of Directors participated in their first ever virtual board meeting:





We covered all the points in the agenda during that meeting, and even though it was an efficient way to hold the meeting, it is agreed that coming together in person is the best way to discuss and deliberate over matters.

January 2021 Webinar:
Brought to you by the Toronto chapter of CSC, the topic is "Emotional Intelligence & Well-Being Awareness Webinar".





Emotional Intelligence. A phrase being heard around the world as something EVERYONE needs right now. Why? Because often EQ (our emotional quotient) matters more than our IQ. You see, when we rub people the wrong way, no one sticks around to find out how smart we are.

And the winner is...





As per the fun survey in late-October, the results are in:
1.                   Do you have daily video calls?  How many?
The answers varied from many per day, to none at all.

2.                   Do you work at home, or have you gone back to the office?
The answers were less varied this time, and most do in fact are now working from home.  A couple of us quite frequently work from our "vehicle offices" as we travel from site to site.

3.                   What was the last place you visited prior to COVID?
This one yielded answers from far flung locations such as Mexico and Florida, to as nearby as Vancouver and Kelowna.

Thank you to everyone who responded, and the winner of the $50 gift certificate of their choice is:
Rebecca Simmons of Low Hammond Rowe Architects
Congratulations Rebecca!!!
