Okotoks, Alberta – Integrity Post Structures Ltd. is pleased to announce today that Jerry Myer, Owner/CEO has been selected to participate in the 2017 QuantumShift program.
QuantumShift is an exclusive invitation-only leadership development program for 40 of Canada’s most promising entrepreneurs. Founded by KPMG Enterprise and the Ivey Business School at The University of Western Ontario, QuantumShift uses Ivey’s highly regarded case study method and award-winning faculty to help take the skills and talents of these entrepreneurs to the next level.
QuantumShift is designed to help Canadian business owners accelerate their companies. It’s for entrepreneurs who are past the start-up stage and who are ready to innovate. The week-long program focuses on how to lead an enterprise through exponential growth; how to attract and retain the best employees; how to uncover obstacles that may be limiting growth; how to value a venture and use strategies for moving from business plan to financial proposition; and how to build a strong network of entrepreneurial peers to share best-practices. For more information about QuantumShift, please visit www.quantumshift.ca Nearly 540 successful entrepreneurs have attended QuantumShift over the past 14 years, including Cameron Heaps, co-founder of Steam Whistle Brewery. Heaps is passionate about growing the craft brewing industry in Canada and says QuantumShift provided him with a unique opportunity to rethink his company’s operating structure. “When you’re a young company in a high growth phase, often the structures aren’t keeping up. This was an opportunity to step back and start identifying where the cracks are and how to set up your business to sustain growth,” said Heaps. “Surrounding myself with like-minded entrepreneurs would give me the opportunity to join and build relationships with people that could potentially help me to run my business better through their experience. The one thing I am not afraid of is surrounding myself with people that know more than me. When I was younger and training horses, my parents would always say “If you want to become a better horse trainer, you need to surround yourself with better horse trainers.” It is something I live by, and have never forgotten.” – Jerry Myer.
