Leadership is an action, not a position. Research indicates that leaders are “mostly made.” This means that while some aspects of leadership come more naturally to some people than others, most leadership qualities can be developed. 

The Banff Management Course provides expert training on the most important duties and responsibilities of today's manager.

To be a highly effective, trusted and respected leader, you need a broad range of skills across a wide range of disciplines. At the Banff Management Course, you'll get all the essential skills you need to handle a diverse range of responsibilities.

The course is structured in an "MBA-style" format, focusing on the core skills & tools needed for success. It provides an ideal synergy between theoretical concepts and proven real-world applications.

Whether you are a newer manager seeking to take control of your job, a senior administrative professional with management responsibilities, or a seasoned manager wanting to update and refresh your skills; at this remarkable seminar, you will gain the confidence and the tools, tips and strategies to excel.

At the Banff Management Course, you will foster the skills needed to drive performance and develop your team. You will learn how to manage conflict successfully and improve your ability to deal effectively with different and sometimes difficult people. 

Designed for those who want to develop effective strategies for influencing others, this powerful course will improve workplace relationships with colleagues, staff and other stakeholders. In short, you will enhance your leadership skills and learn to better manage people, resources and self!

Structured in a way that combines contemporary theoretical insights with proven real-world techniques, the Banff Management Course will help you confidently make the shift from managing to leading.

One of the greatest benefits of attending a truly limited enrollment residential program comes from networking and camaraderie outside the formal educational sessions. This is why, unlike other senior-level courses, where participants must find their own accommodations, arrange their meals etc., at the Banff Management Course, everyone is under the same roof. We have found that this facilitates networking and the formation of friendships with fellow participants. 

Your course fee includes tuition, accommodation (room & taxes), breakfast each day, luncheon on day two, refreshments and a comprehensive courseware package. 

We have chosen one of Canada's finest hotels to host this event - The Fairmont Banff Springs is the perfect place to expand your management and leadership skills and renew your spirit and organizational commitment. With summer room rates at the 'Springs,' approaching $1,500 per night this course also provides a unique opportunity to experience a part of our Canadian heritage.
