It's a mindset of growth. We take inspiration from perennial plants that “exist for an apparently infinite time”.

Using Statistics Canada’s new Quality of Life Framework we will determine what is important to you, use your Perennial mindset to take action. The model looks at society, health, prosperity, environment, governance, life satisfaction, and more. This is interactive with small breakout groups designed to deepen understanding, generate ideas, enable personal reflection and develop possibility.

Michelle RansomandLindsay McDonald are consultants, communicators, and facilitative educators in organizational and individual change.
