The Canadian Symposium for Chief Staff and Chief Elected Officers 2027: Hybrid Participation Availab

If you’re a CEO or Executive Director of an association or not-for-profit organization, don’t miss this outstanding opportunity to come together with your Board Chair for a productive and practical working session to lay the groundwork for a successful year ahead.

You and your Board Chair will spend a day building a common understanding and commitment to the key components of successful governance, strategy and organization. 

You will work together to:

• Define annual priorities
• Learn how to work effectively side by side
• Discover the value of informed policy and strategy as primary tools of leadership

*This workshop is specifically designed to work in partnership with your Chief Elected Officers. Attending this event alone is NOT recommended.


Participation Options

The CEO Symposium offers flexible participation options to accommodate your schedule and travel needs:

• Attend in person together with your Board Chair for the full event experience.
• Attend virtually together with your Board Chair.
  • For the smoothest experience, we recommend joining from the same room if possible.
• Split attendance: one person may attend in person while the other joins virtually.
  • If using this option, we recommend that the in-person attendee bring earphones or headphones for any paired or collaborative sessions.
