After 25 years at the World Exchange Plaza, our dynamic and expanding Centre for Executive Leadership (CEL) has now moved to a brand new, world-class executive learning facility at 99 Bank Street.
The new CEL facilities overlook the renovated atrium and feature bright and spacious classrooms. In addition, participants and instructors will also be able to utilize several boardrooms as well as networking areas.
The CEL is home to Telfer’s growing executive leadership programs:
The Executive MBA, which was recently ranked #1 in the Tier One Global Executive MBA Ranking by CEO Magazine, accelerates value in three distinct ways: business leadership, organizational impact and value to community. A Global, Practical and Relevant program, anchored by the Signature Series of Six Business Consulting Projects, is for professionals focusing on international market and leadership experience to excel in today’s global economy.
Our Master of Business in Complex Project Leadership, which was launched in 2016, is a specialized program designed to equip participants with advanced skills and confidence to be an effective leader and deliver successful program outcomes. Broad areas of learning can be applied to fields such as complex capital procurement projects, program development, business transformation, information technology initiatives and R&D commercialization.
Our vast array of Executive Leadership Programs—developed with our accomplished faculty members, Telfer executives-in-residence, expert industry practitioners and global thought leaders from partner institutions—enable emerging leaders to gain advanced knowledge and skills they can apply immediately and directly to their own practice of leadership.

The Telfer School of Management continues to shape the future management of mega projects with forward-looking research and thought leadership. The latest example: an eye-opening panel discussion on complex project leadership, organized by the Pearson Centre for Progressive Policy and featuring professor Stephane Tywoniak as the keynote presenter.
With a cross-section of attendees from government, companies and industry associations present, Tywoniak said there is a global consensus about the need to reset traditional approaches to contracting for mega-projects and major procurements, as they have become ever-more-complex challenges for governments at home and abroad. He went on to present a report on a series of roundtables on complex project management with some 300 government and business leaders in Australia, Canada, the U.K. and the U.S.
Tywoniak’s talk set the table for a wide-ranging panel discussion involving MPs as well as executives from CAE, Babcock Canada Inc. and Perfocus Management Inc.
Held in the parliamentary precinct on May 18, this event was part of the Pearson Centre's Economy for Tomorrow Series, which is chaired by another professor at the Telfer School, Jonathan Calof, and by Yasmin Ratansi, M.P., the Vice-Chair of the Standing Committee on Government Operations and Estimates.
