| Executive Development Center: How We Can Help |
Why you need us?
There are numerous internal and external pressures that can conspire to destabilize organizational cohesion and halt innovative thinking. Limited financial resources, evolving information technologies, scarcity of qualified personnel and the demands of organizational stakeholders can distract you from reaching critical mission goals.
You want your organization to be the leading force in its marketplace. You want to innovate, constrain costs and continue to offer exceptional services. You want to foster an environment where creativity is encouraged and new ideas are implemented without unacceptable levels of risk. But you need the right personnel with the right skills and strategic mindset to successfully manage institutional pressures and grow your organization.
Where we can help?
We have targeted our programs to the business, government and not-for-profit organizations we think need us the most. Those will be: manufacturers and service firms buffeted by change in the region's mature industries, including (but certainly not limited to) natural resources, health care and financial services; rapidly growing firms with underdeveloped human resource functions in the region's emerging industries, including software consulting, bio-engineering, and technical products; state and local agencies held to increasing standards of accountability; and larger not-for-profit organizations attempting to adopt new management practices.
What sort of companies benefit from our programs?
Whether you are in business to make a profit or in business to save lives, the EDC provides management education that works. We're developing programs for:
- Banking and insurance
- Energy and mineral extractions
- Timber and wood products
- Consulting services
- Social services not-for-profit
