Our Program

The LEADER program is delivered through a combination of interactive activities that include lectures, cases, and individual coaching to help entrepreneurs launch or scale their business:

Lectures

Introduce a core concept of managing a business (marketing, finance, strategy, and others) 

Combination of lecturing and student participation with group discussions, role-playing activities, games, and competitions

Cases

Give students a chance to analyze and act out real-world business scenarios using cases selected from Ivey Publishing’s renowned library of more than 8,000 cases

Case discussions are largely participant-led, promoting thoughtful discussion and debate of different perspectives

Coaching

Participants meet individually with LEADER Instructors outside of class sessions to discuss their business ideas and challenges with direct 1-on-1 coaching

LEADER Instructors have received coaching training to provide better support for participants and act as thought partners
