One of the objectives of the Leadership and Management Development Council is to serve as a catalyst in developing projects that will enhance the leadership and management capabilities of British Columbia’s small and medium sized businesses.

Over the years, we have worked with private and public sector organizations, including the governments of British Columbia and Canada, on a variety of initiatives, including:

• Research into the challenges and issues facing business owners in developing the management skills they need to become more competitive
  
  
• Identification of best practices and innovative approaches to skill development
  
  
• Coordination of the establishment of eBusiness Connection, making it easier for businesses to take advantage of e-business opportunities
  
  
• Development of a provincial Youth Entrepreneurship Strategy for the design and delivery of entrepreneurial programs and services for young entrepreneurships
  
  
• Development of the Small Business Check-up, an online tool to help B.C. business owners and managers measure their abilities and see how they stack up compared with companies recognized to be the best in their class
