Okanagan College offers leadership training series

Okanagan College in Revelstoke is offering a leadership training that helps you excel at issues most leaders encounter.

Program graduate Scott Duke from Revelstoke recommends the series:

“The leadership workshop series is a fantastic program that I would highly recommend to anyone. Carolyn is an incredibly knowledgeable industry professional. A strategy that I learned out of the workshop was a more effective way to place and train new staff and a better process to help bring them up to speed on how the business is run.”
