Partners

The Leadership and Management Development Council is proud to work closely with its lead corporate sponsors.

BC Chamber of Commerce
The BC Chamber of Commerce is a not-for-profit organization that represents the interests and concerns of local Chambers of Commerce and corporate members from across British Columbia. Established in 1867 and formally incorporated in 1951, the BC Chamber provides a range of programs and services to its members, and routinely advocates to Provincial and Federal governments on behalf of its members to ensure that their concerns are being heard. As “The Voice of B.C. Business,” the BC Chamber of Commerce represents over 32,000 businesses belonging to 128 Chambers of Commerce and 450 corporate members located in communities throughout British Columbia.

Certified Management Accountants of B.C.
The Certified Management Accountants (CMA) Society of British Columbia is proud to have been a sponsor of the Leadership and Management Development Council of B.C. for more than seven years. There are 4,000 CMAs in British Columbia holding mid to senior level positions in all industries throughout the province. Many of our members are entrepreneurs who are either employed in or contract their expertise to small businesses. With over 950,000 jobs being supported by small business, the CMA Society is very mindful of the significant role they play in our overall B.C. economy. We support the continuing efforts of LMDCC to assist these businesses to grow and prosper.

Our support for the Leadership and Management Development Council provides CMABC the opportunity to contribute to the development of business and leadership skills amongst entrepreneurs in BC. We value the role this Council plays as a catalyst in the community, and look forward to a continuing relationship with them.

Fasken Martineau
When our founder, Joe Russell, first practiced law in Vancouver 107 years ago, his clients were largely the independent business owners whose enterpreneurship and tenacity helped create the City of Vancouver and contribute to the growth of British Columbia. Our firm continues to admire and nurture the spirit of small and medium-sized businesses in B.C., most recently through our proud participation as a lead corporate sponsor of the Leadership and Management Development Council of British Columbia (LMDC).
Fasken Martineau is the merged firm of Russell & DuMoulin in Vancouver, Fasken Campbell Godfrey in Toronto, and Martineau Walker in Montreal and Quebec City. It is one of the world’s leading international business law and litigation firms with more than 650 lawyers with offices in Canada, the United Kingdom and South Africa.

Our approach is built on relationships; our success stems from the understanding that today's entrepreneur is tomorrow's business leader. Helping to ensure that business leaders of tomorrow have the skills and support they will require is a community responsibility we are honored to accept through our partnership with the LMDC.

Telus
TELUS' success and survival in a highly competitive marketplace has been accomplished with a knowledge and vision that people are our greatest asset. It is the quality, knowledge and combined skills of our employees that will determine our success in a global marketplace. The Leadership and Management Development Council of B.C. holds as its fundamental principles those same beliefs for the success of business and future business leaders in the province of British Columbia.
