Speaking, Workshops, Seminars

Dawn Donahue has been in the hospitality and meeting industry close to 40 years. Some say longer – she planned fundraisers, campaigns and educational seminars starting at the age of 4 according to teachers and family.

She has a hospitality background, is European trained in the food and beverage world, and is a speaker, educator, and a conference and meeting producer. Some highlights of her career: get 600+ chefs on sky train (public transport), to and from a lunch, as part of their conference, without losing one; produce a conference with attendees from 26 countries, with 16 languages, and have staff that spoke all 16 languages for the duration of the conference; plan and produce 11 sold out golf tournaments held over 5.5 days, raising over one million for charities; produce 230 meetings, across Canada, in 90 days.
