Event Details:

Join us for an author afternoon talk with debut author and community leader, Alethia O’Hara‑Stephenson. Drawing on her personal experiences, insights from industry leaders, and real-world corporate case studies (from standout strategies to cautionary tales) Alethia shares practical, inspiring guidance for anyone looking to lead with clarity, courage, and purpose.

Her book explores the realities of building a career and a life at the same time: navigating workplace relationships, overcoming self-doubt, balancing motherhood, marriage and education, and fostering strong, engaged teams. Alethia’s approach is grounded, and her wide-ranging advice speaks not only to young Black or racialized women, but to anyone who aspires to lead effectively by empowering those around them.

Held on March 7, this program is a timely way to recognize female leadership as we head into International Women’s Day (March 8) by celebrating an empowered local voice and leader. In addition to her business experience and author debut, Alethia serves as the President and Founder of the Dufferin County Canadian Black Association and was awarded the prestigious King Charles III Coronation Medal in 2025 for outstanding services to community and country.
