Business without Borders- Workshop Opportunity

It is not too late to arrange a workshop for your business.  Business Without Borders, a Welcoming Communities Project funded by the Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia, is offering workshops at no cost until March 31st 2014.

Every business owner or manager knows that competitive pricing is only part of what encourages customer loyalty. The entire shopping experience and working environment created by employers and staff can establish your business as the top choice for consumers.

College of the Rockies  partnered with the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce and the Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy for a free Business Without Borders Workshop for local business owners and managers, which was held on Wednesday, February 5th.

The Benefits of a Diverse Workforce and the BFOR Criteria, which helps to reduce employee turnover, are only two of the topics discussed and explored through group activities. Other topics include improving staff communication, developing loyalty and commitment as well as considering new Canadians in your succession plan.

Those interested in broadening business strategies to include finding and learning new ways to increase clientele and staff communication must register  to participate by calling the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce at (250) 426-5914 or by email to businesswithoutborders@cranbrookchamber.com
