From Toronto Fractional Executives Pub Night

4.9

# **Toronto Fractional Executives Pub Night: Round 3!** We're back for round three! After two great get-togethers earlier this year, we're excited to bring Toronto's fractional executive community together again for another evening of relaxed, in-person networking. If you're a Fractional COO, CFO, CTO, CMO, CHRO, or another senior operator working on a fractional basis, this event is for you. It's also a great opportunity for founders and investors who work with fractional leaders to connect with the people doing the work. The idea is simple: **step away from your screens, grab a drink, and connect with people who actually get the fractional life.** ## **What to expect** * **Relaxed, pub-style networking**, no presentations, no slide decks, no panels. * **Real conversations** with experienced executives and operators. * **Ideas and insights** on fractional work, finding clients, and building a successful practice. * **New connections** that could lead to referrals, collaborations, and partnerships. No formal agenda and no pressure. Come when you can, grab a drink, and mingle. ## **Who should attend?** * Practicing fractional executives (CXOs). * Independent consultants operating at the executive level. * Experienced operators considering a move into fractional work. * Founders and senior executives at SMBs looking for fractional leadership. * VC/PE executives exploring fractional leadership for their portfolio companies. Whether you're well-established in the fractional world or just exploring the idea, come out and join us. ## **The details** **Venue:** Paupers Pub, second floor **Address:** 539 Bloor St W, Toronto, ON M5S 1Y5 **Getting there:** Paupers is on the south side of Bloor, just east of Bathurst, and a short walk from Bathurst subway station. **Bar:** Cash bar, with food available for purchase. **Space may be limited, so please RSVP if you plan to attend.** **Going forward, all registrations will happen on Luma. Please don't RSVP on Meetup. Use the Luma link below:** **[https://luma.com/bmawtwxr](https://luma.com/bmawtwxr)**

More Than Mere Reliance: An Account of Corporate Trust & Distrust

Wed, Nov 11, 5:00 PM

From The Toronto Philosophy Meetup

4.7

Philosophers have studied interpersonal trust in depth but have said much less about trust in groups. Corporations, as a subset of groups, have received even less attention as objects of trust. Any account of corporate trust must first reckon with Katherine Hawley’s (2017) sceptical challenge. Hawley argues that the distinction between **morally rich trust** and mere **reliance**, though central to accounts of interpersonal trust, can be abandoned for groups at little theoretical cost. Against Hawley, I argue that abandoning the trust–reliance distinction in corporate contexts is theoretically costly. Hawley suggests that resentment towards a group can be redirected either to its members or to broader unjust social structures. But such redirection overlooks how corporations make, maintain, and break commitments through their own organizational structures. I then ask what follows from a minimalist stance on rational corporate agency, where corporations can make commitments in their own name and be answerable for keeping or breaking commitments. Given this stance, our relations with corporations would extend into moral territory beyond mere reliance. On the account of corporate trust I propose, morally significant trust is not uniquely interpersonal, but includes trust grounded in corporate commitments as a distinct form. Further, when a corporation cultivates our reliance, makes exit costly, and opportunistically breaks its commitments, betrayal and distrust (rather than mere non-reliance) are *fitting*. I end by drawing out some of the theoretical and pragmatic benefits of my account for future work on corporate trust and distrust. Sareh Pouryousefi https://www.torontomu.ca/tedrogersschool/business-management/majors/law-and-business/faculty/sareh-pouryousefi/ Associate Professor, Toronto Metropolitan University Visiting Professor, University of Toronto's Centre for Ethics **About the Speaker:** Dr. Pouryousefi's research focuses on the normative foundations of business ethics and her current work is on trust and trustworthiness. Her articles have appeared in such journals as *Business Ethics Quarterly*, *Journal of Business Ethics, Philosophical Studies*, *Utilitas*, and *Inquiry*. She was the recipient of TRSM Research Recognition Awards in 2022 and 2025. Dr. Pouryousefi serves on the Editorial Review Board of *Business Ethics Quarterly* and is a co-editor of its Special Issue on Normativity in Business Ethics and Beyond. Dr. Pouryousefi has taught courses in business ethics, critical thinking, healthcare ethics, public administration ethics, organizational behaviour, and corporate social responsibility. Her teaching was recognized with school- and university-level awards at the University of Toronto and the University of Nottingham. **\* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \* \*** This is a talk with audience Q&A presented by the University of Toronto's Centre for Ethics that is free to attend and open to the public. Free pizza and refreshments will be provided at the event. The talk will also be streamed online with live chat here [to be posted]. About the Centre for Ethics (http://ethics.utoronto.ca): The Centre for Ethics is an interdisciplinary centre aimed at advancing research and teaching in the field of ethics, broadly defined. The Centre seeks to bring together the theoretical and practical knowledge of diverse scholars, students, public servants and social leaders in order to increase understanding of the ethical dimensions of individual, social, and political life. In pursuit of its interdisciplinary mission, the Centre fosters lines of inquiry such as (1) foundations of ethics, which encompasses the history of ethics and core concepts in the philosophical study of ethics; (2) ethics in action, which relates theory to practice in key domains of social life, including bioethics, business ethics, and ethics in the public sphere; and (3) ethics in translation, which draws upon the rich multiculturalism of the City of Toronto and addresses the ethics of multicultural societies, ethical discourse across religious and cultural boundaries, and the ethics of international society. The Ethics of A.I. Lab at the Centre For Ethics recently appeared on a list of 10 organizations leading the way in ethical A.I.: https://ocean.sagepub.com/blog/10-organizations-leading-the-way-in-ethical-ai

SD walk & talk

Sat, Nov 14, 4:00 PM

From Service Design Drinks Toronto

4.7

We’re heading back into the ravine! Our Service Safari continues, and this time we’re mixing a little walking with a little collaborative thinking. Over the past few weeks, we’ve been exploring Toronto’s **Vale of Avoca Ravine** through a service design lens. We’ve walked the trails, gathered observations, shared perspectives, and started connecting the dots. Now we’re heading back outdoors to see what else we can discover together! ### **What’s the plan?** We’ll start with a short walk through the ravine, revisiting some of the places, observations, and questions that have come up along the way. Then we’ll gather around the picnic tables at David A. Balfour Park for a **mapping jam** — using flip charts, sticky notes and markers to bring our observations together, explore different perspectives and see what insights and opportunities emerge. Think of it as part nature walk, part collaborative workshop, and plenty of good conversation! ### **Who can join?** **Everyone is welcome!** You don’t need to have attended the previous Service Safari events or be an experienced service designer. Whether you’re curious about service design, urban nature, public spaces or simply enjoy exploring the city with interesting people, come along! ### **Bring:** Comfortable walking shoes, warm layers, a hot drink if you’d like, and your curiosity! We’ll bring the mapping materials. **A note on weather:** This is an outdoor event, so we’ll keep an eye on the forecast and share any changes if needed. See you on the trails!

From Agentic Development to Automated Delivery

Thu, Nov 12, 10:30 PM

From Toronto Enterprise DevOps User Group

4.5

How do you move from actively guiding AI agents to having them carry work through your team’s development process? Join us for a practical session on agentic workflows in GitHub. We’ll show how people and agents clarify requirements, plan changes, and capture project knowledge, then use those shared skills and context to automate tasks such as assessing issues and reviewing pull requests. Through demos, we’ll explore how these steps can connect into a workflow that takes a small bug from report to proposed fix, helping teams move faster and reduce bottlenecks. Along the way, we’ll show how engineers can inspect the agent’s work, step in when it needs refinement, and retain control over what merges. *Come at 5:30 PM to grab some pizza and network. The presentation kicks off at 6:00 PM!*
