Provide participants with increased knowledge and understanding of sought-after business acumen on topics that will position them as industry leaders and be attractive prospects for capital investment.

Project Summary

Protein Industries Canada is working with The Ivey Academy at Western University to deliver a custom, world-class executive education and training program to boost the all-around business and leadership acumen of Protein Industries Canada members who are looking to scale.

The education program delivers interactive, participant-centred learning using case studies, workshops/simulations, interactive lectures, and action-learning. It gives participants the foundations needed in key leadership areas, including culture, strategy and communications; talent and performance development; teams and finance (including valuation and capitalization); teams and information systems (including IP ownership and strategy); and driving change.

Along with individualized assessment support and mentorship, participants have the opportunity to network with each other and amongst guest lectures and other experts involved in the program.
