Strategic Leadership Forum (www.spots.ab.ca/~slf/welcome.htm)
The Strategic Leadership Forum is North America's leading
international business organization focused on strategic management and planning.
Our Mission is to advance the understanding and practice of strategic
management as the integrating force for improving individual and organizational
performance and achieving global competitiveness.
We are the largest professional organization in the world focused on
leading edge knowledge of strategy and its implementation. We've built our resources and
networks to focus single-mindedly on strategy and implementation. Since this is our only
mission, we track trends and issues better and go into greater depth than generalist
organizations can.

and an executive committee which is also international.
The SMS focuses its attention on the development and dissemination of
insights on the strategic management process, as well as on fostering contacts and
interchange among ABCs from around the world.
