A high-level human resources employee at the City of Markham has been placed on leave after she said and displayed the N-word while giving a guest lecture to students at George Brown College.

Janet Ashfield, Markham's deputy director of people services, spoke to more than 100 students in the college's human resources management program on Wednesday, according to a video recording of the virtual class viewed by CBC Toronto.

As part of her presentation, Ashfield presented a real-world case study about two firefighters who lost their jobs after posting offensive content on social media. She asked the students how they would have handled the situation if they were the arbitrator in the case.

While outlining the scenario, Ashfield said the N-word out loud as she quoted one of the firefighter's social media posts. The video shows her presentation slides also spelled out the word in full. [...]

Woo!  All the hats I needed to make for this semesters’ class are all done, and the brown felt hat is going to be handed in soon. I also included a bonus quick sketch that is part of the homework to accompany the hat, and the materials list so you can all see what’s involved in college homework and the process.

If you enjoy my work, want to help support my school tuition, or help pay for materials (because making mock-ups, felt, and other materials is expensive), please visit my Ko-Fi page

Empowering Change Through Networking

Reflections from George Brown College Seminars

As a marketing enthusiast attending George Brown College, I have had the incredible opportunity to gain experience from insightful seminars led by industry experts. These experiences have provided valuable insights, strategies, and inspiration, shaping my approach to marketing. Particularly, an enlightening Marketing Seminar on digital marketing broadened my horizons and influenced my career aspirations. I also discovered the power of networking and resource leverage to enhance my prospects in this dynamic field. I express my heartfelt gratitude to Wendy Greenwood, my professor, for enabling these experiences and fostering my passion for continuous learning. With newfound knowledge and connections, I am confident in building a successful and fulfilling career in marketing.

What I Learned:

What I learned from The Marketing Seminars was truly eye-opening and has had a profound impact on my career aspirations.

One of the speakers who inspired me the most was Jennifer Stoll, the VP of Strategy at Caltech. Her unique approach to strategic solutions, emphasizing research, ideation, and customer focus, really resonated with me. Her advice to find passion in my career journey encouraged me to explore different paths within marketing and embrace new opportunities.

Another crucial lesson I took away was from Christy Varicat's seminar on customer-centric marketing. She emphasized the significance of empathy in understanding consumer needs and creating meaningful interactions. This perspective has completely reshaped my marketing approach, placing customers at the heart of every strategy.

Additionally, Blair Roebuck's seminar on data-driven marketing highlighted the power of analytics in comprehending consumer behaviour and optimizing marketing efforts. Learning about predictive analytics has given me a competitive edge in making informed decisions and staying ahead in the ever-changing marketing landscape.

Moreover, Caroline Berryman's talk on social marketing highlighted the importance of selling ideas that drive positive change. It inspired me to pursue marketing campaigns that leave a lasting impact on individuals and society. Overall, the seminar exposed me to diverse perspectives and valuable insights that have broadened my career options and set me on an exciting path in the field of marketing.

Network and Resources:

Networking success has been a valuable learning experience for me. To achieve it, I have focused on key aspects.

Remaining authentic and approachable, aiming to build genuine connections with others.

Being a good listener and expressing my thoughts clearly has helped me effectively communicate with people I meet.

Participating in virtual and online marketing events and activities allowed me to connect with like-minded individuals and gain industry-specific knowledge.

Volunteering for Marketing Initiatives: Volunteering in marketing-related events allowed me to expand my network while contributing to meaningful initiatives. Through volunteering, I connected with professionals who share a passion for making a positive impact through marketing.

In my experience, leveraging LinkedIn for networking and job finding has been a significant meaningful change. I have optimized my profile to highlight my skills and achievements relevant to my desired job. Actively engaging with job-related content, connecting with professionals in my industry, and joining relevant groups have increased my visibility and access to potential job opportunities. Personalizing my job applications and seeking recommendations from colleagues have added credibility to my profile. Utilizing the "Open to Work" feature has enabled recruiters to identify my job search status. By staying active and consistent on LinkedIn, I have maintained a strong presence, allowing me to network effectively and increase my chances of finding relevant job leads.

During my job search, I explored various job-finding resources, including:

Industry-specific job boards. These platforms provided relevant job postings tailored to my interests and skills, making my job search more targeted and effective.

George Brown Career Websites, where companies list their job openings. Visiting individual company career pages often led to exclusive job postings and insights into the company culture and values.

Communicate and engage with my connections. Regular communication ensures that my network is aware of my career aspirations and actively supports my job search.

Through networking and leveraging my connections, I want to find a co-op position in a dynamic marketing agency. Networking has played a significant role in my Co-op search, keeping me updated with job opportunities and market trends. The connections I have made have provided valuable insights into different organizations and potential co-op positions. Keeping an open mind about industries and organization sizes has allowed me to consider diverse options. Utilizing LinkedIn and running personal campaigns has expanded my professional network significantly. I have emphasized my digital marketing skills in interviews and remained flexible with role criteria. Engaging in opportunities, seeking advice from multiple sources, and leveraging online and offline platforms have widened my connections. My initiative-taking approach, growth mindset, and dedication to continuous improvement through an updated LinkedIn profile, personal website, and portfolio. As I continue my journey, I am confident in unlocking new possibilities for a successful marketing career.

Networking Tips and Best Practices:

I make it a point to attend networking events, conferences, workshops, and seminars in my industry or areas of interest. These gatherings provide excellent opportunities to meet like-minded individuals and expand my network. By sharing valuable content and participating in discussions, I can enhance my online presence and connect with others in my field.

After meeting someone at a networking event, I always send a personalized follow-up email or message. Expressing appreciation for the conversation and reinforcing specific points discussed helps to maintain the connection. I believe in the importance of being helpful and supportive to others in their endeavours without expecting anything in return. Building a network is about creating mutually beneficial relationships.

As a result, I am grateful to all the speakers for sharing their expertise and experiences, shaping my understanding of the marketing industry. As I move forward in my career, I will embrace agility, innovation, and continuous learning, inspired by the remarkable professionals I had the privilege to learn from. Special thanks to Wendy Greenwood, my professor at George Brown College, for facilitating this incredible learning experience.

Unlocking Success: The Perfect Blend of HR and Digital Marketing

With over a decade of experience in the Human Resources industry, my journey took a new turn upon my arrival in Canada. Recognizing the need to stay competitive and embrace innovation, I eagerly enrolled in a Digital Marketing program. As the year unfolded, I discovered the natural synergy between HR and digital marketing, opening new possibilities in my professional career. Today, I am excited to share my experiences from a pivotal course - The Digital Marketing Seminar Course. This program provided valuable tools and insights as industry experts shared their knowledge during weekly presentations.

This course became the catalyst for blending my HR experience with digital marketing strategies, revealing how the two disciplines could complement each other. I recognized that the course was not just about theoretical concepts; it was a practical journey of learning from valuable people in the industry and their professional journeys.

As I embraced the power of digital marketing and integrated it with my HR expertise, the perfect blend began to take shape. In this blog post, I'll share my learnings and insights gained during this transformative journey, highlighting the significance of networking on LinkedIn, and connecting with peers, professors and colleagues. Moreover, I'll delve into the importance of understanding the target market, embracing continuous learning, self-improvement, and thinking creatively to think outside the box.

HR and Digital Marketing:

The Power of LinkedIn: Leveraging Experience and Building Connections

Through every engaging presentation during the course, I discovered that LinkedIn is a goldmine for HR recruiters. Week after week, I convinced myself of the importance of this powerful tool. By optimizing my profile and actively connecting with industry professionals, HR leaders, and potential candidates, I forged valuable connections that extend beyond the classroom. LinkedIn has now become my go-to platform for staying updated on HR trends, job openings, and industry insights.

Utilizing LinkedIn not only expanded my network but also enabled me to engage with thought leaders and stay informed about the latest advancements in the HR field. The platform provided me with access to industry-specific groups where I could exchange ideas and collaborate with peers facing similar challenges. This active participation broadened my knowledge and allowed me to contribute meaningfully to discussions.

2. Peers, Professors, and Colleagues: An Empowering Support Network

Every week's presentations brought me closer to my peers, professors, and colleagues in the industry. These interactions not only enriched my knowledge but also provided invaluable support and mentorship. As I blended HR and digital marketing strategies, their guidance has been instrumental in shaping my professional journey.

One presentation that particularly resonated with me was Melanie Evely's. Her career journey, transitioning from a marketing background in TD Bank to excelling in the HR field, inspired me and made perfect sense. She demonstrated how transferable skills from one industry can be applied innovatively in another. Embracing Melanie's advice, I learned to be open-minded and unafraid to explore different job opportunities, even within my current position.

3. Change is Good: Embracing Wide Possibilities in any Industry.

Melanie Evely's presentation taught me that change is good and that being 100% ready is not always necessary. Change can happen within a current position, and it is essential to remain open-minded to explore different job opportunities. As industries evolve, the fusion of HR and digital marketing has empowered me to embrace change and adapt quickly to emerging trends.

4. Understanding the Target Market: A Strategic Edge

Thanks to Carolyne Berryman's presentation, I became more conscious of the importance of understanding the target market in any job position or activity. With a firm grasp of my target market, I've been able to tailor HR recruitment strategies to address specific industry needs effectively. By conducting in-depth research on industries, companies, and job roles, I am willing to elevate my recruitment approach and foster meaningful connections with candidates and clients alike.

Carolyne's insights enlightened me on how understanding the target market could significantly impact HR recruitment strategies. With this knowledge, I aim to gain a competitive edge in the industry by customizing my approaches to attract and retain top talent for my clients.

5. Embracing Continuous Learning and Self-Improvement

In Amanda Lee's presentation, I learned the importance of continuous learning and self-improvement. The dynamic world of digital marketing constantly evolves, and the course highlighted the significance of staying updated with the latest trends and technologies. Embracing webinars, workshops, and HR publications will allow me to adapt my digital marketing capabilities to complement my HR expertise effectively.

By continuously improving my skill set, I want to position myself as an asset in the HR industry, capable of providing comprehensive solutions that integrate digital marketing strategies.

6. Unlocking Creativity: Reinventing HR Strategies

One of my favorite presentations was by Danielle Humilde, where she discussed how to make impactful changes with limited data, low budget, and minimal digital strategy. Creative thinking will unlock fresh perspectives on HR recruitment. I cannot wait to start blending creative digital marketing tactics with HR practices that will empower me to design innovative recruitment approaches, captivating job postings, and engaging candidate outreach strategies. Additionally, I will be embracing diversity and inclusion in the hiring process, making my approach unique and enticing to top talent. This combination of strategies will lead to a successful and dynamic approach in the HR industry.

Conclusion:

I am grateful to be able to attend the Digital Marketing Seminar course as it has provided valuable lessons that I will apply in my new professional path here in Canada. The fusion of HR and digital marketing enables me to stay at the forefront of HR innovations, adopt new technologies, and create a unique recruitment approach. Blending my passion for HR with the power of digital marketing keeps endless possibilities before me, propelling my journey toward professional excellence. This perfect blend not only enriches my career but also opens exciting opportunities in the ever-evolving HR industry. As I reflect on this transformative journey, I am confident that the synergy between HR and digital marketing will guide me to unlock success in the dynamic landscape of HR.

The Time Travelers ⌚ [Marty Mcfly x Y/N]

Pairing: Marty McFly x Fem!Y/N Song Inspo: Marty McFly by Luke Christopher Word Count: 1,728 Summary: You, Marty, and Doc Brown formed a formidable team. You were always by Marty's side, assisting with Doc's eccentric experiments. Unbeknownst to you, Marty shared your feelings but hadn't yet found the right moment to express them. He had planned to ask you out after Doc's latest experiment, but things took a dangerous turn when adversaries of Doc attacked, forcing you both to flee for your lives. Warnings: sexual harassment, some violence (non-graphic) Masterlist: see fandoms (pc-friendly)

"Marty! They're catching up!"

"I know, (Y/N)! Damn it, I know!"

Marty pressed harder on the gas pedal, accelerating rapidly. "Marty, wait! 88 miles per hour—" Too late. The next moment, you crashed into a barn.

You groaned and checked yourself for injuries, noticing Marty struggling with a hazmat helmet.

"I'll be quick," he mumbled through the mask. You waited anxiously until Marty returned to the car, gunfire echoing in the distance.

"What's happening?!" you shouted. "Hold on!" he replied, speeding away again with shots trailing behind you.

[ TIME SKIP AKA TIME TRAVEL ]

Marty drove to your neighborhood, but something was off. The area hadn't been developed yet.

"What should we do?" You asked nervously.

"I don't kn—Wait. Doc! We need to find Doc! It's his machine, he must know what's going on!"

"Marty," you interrupted.

"Come on, (Y/N)! We have to locate his place and—"

"Marty!"

"What?!"

You sighed deeply. "How about you take a moment to calm down. Clearly, we're not at home. Let's think this through. My 'uncle' Lou is at the café. Well, he's not really my uncle. Whatever. Let's check if we can use the phone there. We'll call Doc and see what he suggests. Sound good?"

Marty's expression softened, and he nodded in agreement. "Yeah. Okay. Let's head to the cafe." He held out his hand to you, and you took it with a shy smile. Since you couldn't drive, you began walking together.

[ TIME SKIP ]

"What the heck?" Marty muttered under his breath. You shared his disbelief. This was surreal. It looked like... the 1950s.

"Marty...?"

He nervously ran his hand through his hair and scanned the town until his eyes fell on a trash can. He rushed over, picking up a newspaper. His eyes widened as he read, mumbling something you couldn't quite catch.

"What? What is it?" you asked, your voice barely above a whisper, nerves and excitement mingling in your tone.

"1955, (Y/N)! We're—We're in 1955... Doc's machine worked."

Your mind raced as you tried to comprehend the enormity of the situation. "Oh my God. I—I haven't even been born yet! Well... that might not be such a bad thing."

"Ouch." Marty furrowed his brows at your self-deprecation.

"No, no, no. I meant for the space-time continuum. Two of us existing in the same time period. That's be catastrophic." Marty blinked at you, clearly speechless and impressed. "What? I listen to Doc."

The two of you chuckled a bit, cut short as the memory of Doc being murdered returning. Doc was dead, or he would be... in 1985. Meanwhile, the two of you were stuck in 1955.

Marty's expression shifted to a mix of determination and concern. "Come on. We've still gotta use that phone."

With that, Marty grabbed your hand and hurried across the quiet street towards Lou's Cafe, the familiar setting from countless retellings of his adventures. As you stepped inside, the nostalgic atmosphere enveloped you—the checkerboard floor, the red vinyl booths, and the jukebox playing tunes of an era long gone.

"Did you kids jump ship or something?" the man behind the counter asked, his voice a blend of curiosity and amusement.

"Sorry?" you replied, momentarily thrown off by the unexpected question.

"Well, what's with the life preserver?" he continued, gesturing towards Marty with a quizzical expression.

You glanced at Marty, realization dawning upon you. "Oh," you chuckled softly, "I just... he likes his vests."

"I just—uh... I need to use your phone," Marty stammered, eager to distract from any further questions about his unconventional attire.

"Sure. Right over there," the man said, pointing to a booth in the back of the cafe.

Before Marty left, he turned to you with a hint of urgency in his eyes. "Stay here for me. Okay?"

"Okay," you nodded, offering him a reassuring smile despite the whirlwind of thoughts racing through your mind. "I swear, Marty, if it's the last thing I do, I'll get us home. I'll get you home," you added, trying to muster the courage you knew he needed.

Marty returned your smile gratefully before rushing towards the booth, leaving you to take a seat at the counter. You settled onto the stool, trying to blend in with the patrons who seemed oblivious to the temporal chaos unfolding around them.

A familiar figure caught your eye—a young man sitting just a seat away, devouring a sundae with gusto. "Hey, ice cream sounds pretty good," you mused to yourself, trying to find some semblance of normalcy in this surreal situation.

"Um, could I have a sundae?" you asked Lou, the man behind the counter, your voice wavering slightly with nerves.

"Sure thing, sweetheart," Lou replied warmly, reaching under the counter to retrieve a bowl and prepare your order.

Meanwhile, Marty trudged back from the phone booth, a sheet of phone book paper clutched tightly in his hand. "Hey, do you know where—" he began, only to be interrupted by the sudden swing of the cafe's front doors.

Your breath caught in your throat as you glanced towards Marty for confirmation. "Marty. I—Is that...?"

"Biff," he muttered under his breath, his jaw clenched with apprehension.

The cafe seemed to freeze in time as a familiar, imposing figure entered—the swaggering bully, Biff Tannen. Minions behind him, his presence filled the room with a palpable tension, drawing the gaze of everyone present, including yours and Marty's.

"Hey, McFly! McFly, I'm talkin' to you!" Biff bellowed, his voice cutting through the air like a knife.

The young man at the counter turned around, and it hit you like a lightning bolt. It was George McFly, Marty's father, a timid and awkward figure caught in Biff's shadow.

"Oh. Hi, Biff," George stammered, his voice barely audible over the din of the café.

Marty's expression mirrored your own shock as you watched the scene unfold before you, the pieces of the past falling into place with eerie precision.

"That's George McFly," Marty whispered to you, his voice tinged with disbelief. "My dad." You nodded silently, your eyes locked on George's vulnerable form as Biff continued his relentless taunting. "M-My dad was a total wimp," Marty muttered, his shoulders slumped with defeat.

"Poor guy," you whispered sympathetically, unable to tear your gaze away from the heartbreaking sight.

"Hello! McFly! Anybody home?" Biff mocked, knocking on George's head with a cruel smirk.

"I see Biff's always been an asshole," you murmured to Marty, your voice tinged with anger and empathy as you witnessed the brutal bullying unfold before your eyes. Marty remained transfixed, his expression a mix of sorrow and frustration as he watched his father endure Biff's torment.

"What're you lookin' at, butthead?!" Biff sneered, closing in on Marty with malicious intent.

Enough was enough. You couldn't stand idly by while Biff continued his reign of terror, especially not aimed at Marty.

"Hey! Why don't you back the hell off, asshole!" You snapped, your voice ringing out in defiance.

Biff's gaze snapped towards you, his expression shifting from rage to something altogether more unsettling—a predatory glint in his eyes. He licked his lips slowly, a sinister smile spreading across his face as he moved towards you, his towering frame blocking your escape.

Fear gripped your heart, but you stood your ground, refusing to let Biff intimidate you any further. Marty got up to fight but Biff's gang held him back.

"Don't you touch her, you sick son of a bitch!" Marty yelled.

"Oh shut up, dip-stick. A pretty girl like this ain't gonna like a squirt like you. She needs a real man." Biff turned his attention back to you. "Ain't that right, doll face?" He smirked.

"That's actually insulting." You spat. "I'd rather lick the mud off my shoe then be anywhere NEAR you!" The fucking nerve this guy had. You tried to push him away, escape from his grasp, anything. But his grip on you was iron.

"You better watch your mouth! Just you wait, honey. You're gonna be beggin' for a taste of me." He said, sending sickly chills down your spine. "Stop it! Leave me alone!" You protested as you squirmed with all your might. That must've set something off inside of Marty because he lost it and let loose on Biff's gang. Fists were flying and bodies were falling. Biff's head whipped to witness, loosening his grip, and you took the opportunity. The next fist you saw was yours meeting Biff's jaw and knocking him on his ass.

Before you could breath again, Marty grabbed your hand and RAN. He ran until the two of you were safe in a little shop Biff would never look. As soon as he was sure you were safe, he began checking you for any harm.

"Are you okay? Of course you aren't. I'm so sorry, (Y/N). Damn it. That just made me so mad to see him touch you like that. No one should be so damn disrespectful and- and touch you like that! I swear, (Y/N)."

"Marty."

"When I see him again I'll- I'll... I'll beat the shit out of him!"

"Marty!"

"(Y/N)! He's a total ass! He deserves to-"

You cut him off by grabbing his face and crashing your lips to his. He was a bit surprised at first but quickly returned the kiss. He rested his hands on your hips and carefully pulled you closer.

By the time you pulled apart, you were both flushed in the face. You leaned closer and nuzzled your foreheads sweetly, running your fingers through his soft hair.

"W-What was that for?" Marty stuttered.

You pursed your lips as you gently ran your fingers through his soft hair again. You wanted to confess, tell him you liked him, Like, really liked him. You started it a stutter, a huge smile spreading across his face. You could sense he knew what you were going to say...

Until you heard someone clear their throat.

It was the store owner. She stood there with her hands on her hips and a small smirk on her face. Both yours and Marty's faces were red with embarrassment.

"S-Sorry, ma'am." You stuttered.

"Yeah. Sorry." Marty seconded.

With that, you two quickly shuffled out of the shop, holding hands, and running down the block. Meanwhile, the store owner watched from the shop window, a growing smile on her face.

"What weird kids. Sweet, but weird."

Toronto's George Brown College, one of the largest academic institutions of its kind in Canada, has pledged to take action after a guest lecturer both spoke and showed a written image of the N-word during a presentation to more than 100 human resources management students on Wednesday.

"George Brown College is aware of a disturbing and troubling incident involving the use of the N-word by a guest speaker who is not employed by the college during a classroom case study presentation yesterday," reads a letter published by the college's president, Dr. Gervan Fearon, on Thursday, March 16.

"We acknowledge that giving embodied voice and life to the N-word and other racial slurs is completely unacceptable, inhumane and undermines efforts to create a safe and broadly supportive and inclusive learning environment. We condemn this behaviour in the strongest terms and are taking this matter extremely seriously." [...]
