About Peerspectives

Culture

Our values-driven, holistic approach to management and leadership development in a safe environment help management professionals focus on the essential elements of success in: Business, Health, Wealth, Enduring Relationships and Personal and Professional Development.

We are more than the typical “over-rated”, “exclusive” and very expensive C-Suite, professional, or sector-specific cluster of managers coming together once a month to learn from and support each other. Our Peerspectives program offers much, much more value at a fraction of the price of similar organizations.

Mission

As a diverse and inclusive management community spanning our great nation, we can and will do good for ourselves, our businesses, and our communities across Canada.

Our power and impact come through a strong, inclusive, and connected peer network advancing individual competence, character and confidence through structured learning, problem solving and peer support.

Vision

Advance Canada’s Social and Economic Footprint through a powerful network of management professionals striving for positive impact.

Best Managers – we aspire to creating a generation, and future generations, of great managers and leaders to create a better society and economic platform for sustainability.

Authentic Leadership – we value and promote authenticity in personal and team leadership and management.

Honest Feedback – we don’t tip-toe around the hard truth, as we see or hear it. We respectfully share insights that help others realize their own truth with greater clarity and certainty.

Respectful Dialogue – we encourage respectful dialogue and constructive feedback when confronted with challenges or opportunities. We ask all our participants to sign and support our Peerspectives Code of Conduct.

Long-Haul Focus – we focus on your longer-term success, not just that of the here and now.
