Inclusion in the Workplace

The past few months have exposed an unspoken pandemic that has crippled the black community for
decades. I will be facilitating a conversation on how we can make the workplace feel more inclusive towards minorities.
- How can we play our part in promoting an inclusive work space?
- The intentional and unintentional bias; and
- Accommodating cultural differences in the workplace.

Facilitators

Felicita’s received her call to the Manitoba Bar in 2018 and her areas of practice are Family law, Real Estate, and Immigration law. She is an Associate at Progressive Legal Solutions LLP located in Winnipeg, Manitoba. She received her Bachelors at the University of Windsor, Ontario in 2012 and obtained her LL.B from the University of Birmingham in the United kingdom in 2014.

Her favourite quote is " Stop Worrying on what you have to lose, and start focusing on what you have to gain". Fun fact: when Ms. Ovadje is also a Makeup Artist when she is not practicing law or volunteering within the community.
