Save the Date: Effective Communication Series: Empowering Diverse Teams

Wednesday, February 4, 2026 | 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Canadian Embassy, Tokyo

Following strong attendance at our first session, the CCCJ Global Diversity Management Committee invites you to an executive fireside chat featuring Sarah Casanova, former Director and Chairman of McDonald's Japan, and an Honorary Board of Advisor of CCCJ, alongside other senior leaders.

In a candid discussion, panelists will explore questions that many leaders face but rarely discuss openly—including lessons learned about the importance of clear communication, the specific advice that shifted how they empower diverse teams, and whether leadership principles transcend cultural contexts or require cultural adaptation.

This is an opportunity to engage directly with executives who have navigated these challenges across organizations and cultures, and to explore practical approaches with peers facing similar questions.

Networking with refreshments follows the session.

Registration details forthcoming. Embassy security protocols require advance confirmation.
