OPBA Leadership Day 2026: Performance Management & Difficult Conversations


OPBA Leadership Day 2026

Description:

The Ontario Public Buyers Association (OPBA) is hosting a new, in-person leadership development experience designed for senior procurement leaders with people-management responsibilities.

Leading a procurement team often means navigating difficult conversations — performance issues, accountability, and team dynamics that require more than process and policy.

This interactive session focuses on practical leadership tools for real workplace situations, including:

  • Coaching strategies to build accountability and engagement
  • Delivering clear, empathetic feedback
  • Addressing resistance or defensiveness
  • Navigating performance discussions with confidence

The session will be facilitated by Nicole North (Whiteboard Learning), who works with leaders across organizations to strengthen communication and team effectiveness.

To support meaningful discussion, capacity is intentionally limited.
