 We are pleased to announce that Pierrette DesRosiers will be our afternoon Speaker,
her session will start at 1pm.   Pierrette Desrosiers, MPS, CRHA is a work psychologist, professional speaker, business coach and author who specializes in the agricultural industry. She comes from a family of farmers and she and her husband farmed for more than 25 years. She has worked with 350+ family businesses in her professional life. Pierrette is interested, among other things, in the many human challenges in the agricultural sector, as well as in the business environment. Her years of work with agricultural producers, have also allowed her to see the dizzying growth of stress and psychological distress in the industry. She was able to see the urgency of tackling this major problem, which is also present in the corporate environment. Her approach is innovative and dynamic. Her ability to make a real difference in the lives of those she meets, makes Pierrette one of the most appreciated speakers, as revealed by the many testimonials. At the same time, it stands out in both the agricultural and corporate sectors, both in Quebec and in Canada.
