Sunday session: The Rural Watch
Session Time: Sunday November 22, 2026, from 12:00 noon – 5:00 PM
You have what it takes to make a difference in the wellness of those around you. Building communication skills, tackling rough conversations and supporting those you care about are among the wisest investments you will ever make. However, we must do it from a compassionate lens.

Monday workshop: Passing the Farm, Preserving the Family: Navigating Communication, Conflict, and Change in Farm Succession
Farm succession is about far more than transferring assets—it involves navigating complex family relationships, differing expectations, and deeply held emotions. This session explores common family dynamics that can complicate the succession process, practical tools for improving communication and resolving conflict, and strategies for moving forward when progress becomes stalled. Participants will gain insights into preserving both the farm’s viability and the strength of family relationships while creating a shared path toward the future.

Plenary: Lead Boldly. Lift Generously. Leave a Legacy.
Women play a vital role in shaping agriculture, businesses, families, and communities in Canada and around the world. Through inspiring stories and practical leadership lessons, this plenary explores how confidence, compassion, and generosity can transform workplaces and strengthen the people around us. Participants will be encouraged to embrace their influence, lift up others, and leave a legacy that reaches far beyond their own success.
