CANJAC
incorporates many of the same principles established in the JA Company
Program. The interaction
between the Achievers and business community is further enhanced through
the relationship of the CANJAC delegates and the Corporate Sponsor
Resources.
Throughout
the conference week, the delegates will research a business-related
issue, with the assistance of volunteer staff resources from across
Canada. Each working group of 20 - 30 delegates will interact with
guest resources from a corporate sponsor to investigate the sponsor’s
business with respect to marketing, human resources and technology. The provision of guest speakers allows the groups to enter
into dialogue about the topic and explore the effects of both internal
and external factors on the activities and operations of Canadian
businesses. Delegates will
also have an opportunity to explore career opportunities and develop a
personal plan to assist them in reaching personal goals.
Based
on the knowledge obtained throughout the week, the delegates will
prepare a ten-minute House Presentation that addresses the conference
question. Presentations
will be made at the final General Meeting
and will involve representatives of each of the working groups
(Houses) in a dialogue with business guests and fellow delegate
participants attending the meeting.
