Conference & Dinner honoured five inspiring Champions for women at work.
2022 Catalyst Honours Conference & Dinner involved numerous moments of inspiration and powerful stories about building inclusion for women at work.
“Never in a million years would I have imagined being here as the real me,” said Katherine (Katie) Dudtschak, formerly of RBC, during her acceptance speech for the 2022 Catalyst Honours Business Leader Champion award.
The event on November 9 brought together hundreds of business leaders in person and online from across the Canadian corporate and public sectors. For many, it was their first time reconnecting in person in three years.
Together, attendees honoured five extraordinary leaders who have made a critical impact in advancing women at work. They also celebrated Catalyst’s sixtieth anniversary in 2022, which we are recognizing as the year of The Great Reimagining: Equity for Women, Equity for All.
Dinner Chair Darryl White, CEO of BMO, co-presented the Catalyst Honours award to each Honouree with four other BMO leaders: Clio Straram, Karen Collins, Gabrielle Scheliga, and Christine Cooper. Darryl White is also Chair of the Catalyst Canada Advisory Board.
