What is TEC?
The challenges facing Canadian business leaders are increasingly complex. It’s easy to feel overloaded with information, stretched and alone. Leaders are looking for a safe harbour where they can receive advice and support. TEC provides deeper insights that can make a real impact in your business, your career, and your life.
Who is it for?
TEC offers six different types of peer advisory groups, each designed to meet the distinct needs of leaders at all stages of their learning and growth. We take great care to match you to the right peer group by considering your organizational size, stage of development and competitive landscape.
