Welcome to uLead 2025.  We are thrilled you will be joining us at the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel for our annual school leadership conference hosted by the Council for School Leadership of The Alberta Teachers’ Association.

If you have any questions during the event, we will have uLead team members throughout the venue wearing red and black plaid. The registration desk will also have our team available throughout the conference. This table can be found just outside of the Van Horne Ballroom where all of our keynote presentations are taking place.

In order for our team to best determine room allocations for breakout sessions would ask that delegates log in (top right corner of this page) and select sessions that they are interested in attending.

Our brain evolved over 50000 years ago for the purpose of the survival in the Stone Age.  The brain takes thousands of years to evolve so modern humans have very much the same brain as the Paleolithic man, so your brain operates on primitive software. This has significant implications for leadership and learning in the workplace across every sector or context. Find out why we judge a leader in the first few seconds by their trustworthiness, their warmth and their credibility.
A deep understanding of how our brain thinks, will provide strategies for decision making that align with the way our brain best operatives for powerful leadership and learning insights and practices. There is limited change in thinking and behaviour, without neuroplastic changes in the brain over time. Building trust, and rapport for personal and organisational growth through the12 leadership attributes strengthens leadership influence. Build strategic leaders around you, rather than rely on accidental managers.
There is a gap between what neuroscience shows and what organisations do.  Leaders and teachers can learn how to adjust their behaviours and practices to align with the physiology, not against it, to strengthen their influence. The new research of the neuroplastician draws knowledge from the fields of neurophysiology, neurolinguistics, neuroplasticity and neurocoaching to inform evidence based practice.  Applied social neuroscience has much to offer the future of educational leadership.
