Conference panels on reconciliation are common. Speakers who bring both lived Indigenous experience and practical business acumen are not. Houston Barnaby is a Mi'kmaw lawyer from Listuguj First Nation who has spent his career at the intersection of Indigenous rights, governance, and industry. He does not speak in generalities. He speaks from direct experience advising organizations across corporate, government, and nonprofit sectors on what reconciliation requires in practice.
Every speaking engagement is tailored to your audience and event objectives. Whether it is a keynote, a panel contribution, or a facilitated discussion, the goal is the same: leave your audience with context they did not have before and clarity on what their role is.
• Provide historical and contemporary context specific to your audience's sector
• Connect reconciliation principles to real organizational decisions
• Create space for honest dialogue, not just passive listening
• Leave participants with practical next steps, not just awareness
Houston has presented to audiences across energy, healthcare, education, financial services, and government. He brings structure and substance to conversations that too often stay at the surface.
