What It's All About 

How QuantumShift Benefits You and Your Organization

Experience learning specifically designed for entrepreneurs
QuantumShift is a unique leadership program designed for entrepreneurs. You'll be equipped with the tools and skills you'll need to take on the specific challenges facing rapidly growing enterprises and take your organization to a new level. The learning experience is a blend of leading-edge concepts and best practices that you can put into practice immediately for your benefit and that of your organization.

Become a member of a powerful peer network

QuantumShift is more than an Executive Development program. It’s entry into an exclusive peer network designed to share ideas and challenges. Following completion of the program, you become a Fellow of QuantumShift. Long after the program is completed, you will continue to connect with this exceptional business support network through biannual videoconferences and our annual Fellows conference.

Exclusivity, prestige and profile
The QuantumShift designation is a recognizable stamp of excellence. Only graduates can use this elite symbol to exhibit their best in class leadership and entrepreneurial success. QuantumShift graduates gain coast-to-coast exposure as entrepreneurial and successful business leaders in a special report in the Globe & Mail.
