Imagine Interact Inspire! To celebrate 10 years and as a springboard to the future, Leadership Ottawa is hosting a two day event gathering diverse thinkers and practitioners from our city to share ideas and actions about their experiences. The key is powerful, highly focused contributions from the main stage with lots of room to encourage connections to take place among participants. All supported by a theme that matters:

What’s your dream for Ottawa?

We will celebrate acts of leadership that are in action now, explore the impact of this leadership and what possible future is emerging from this leadership.


25 thought provoking speakers invited to give the talk of their lives, straight from their heart (in 15 minutes); and mix in 5 minute presentations of creative dance, music, reflection, theatre and comedy. The speakers and participants have maximum opportunity to cross-pollinate ideas and be inspired from one another.

This summit will be different. Inspired by the exciting movement of conferences that have been established around the globe, by organizations such as TED, IdeaCity, Innoversity, EG, IOC, Leadership Ottawa aims to move forward provocative ideas to challenge traditional methods of approaching community issues.
