September 26, 2018 (Vancouver, BC): MacKay CEO Forums, Canada’s highest impact peer learning organization for CEOs and top executives, announced today that it has officially achieved B Corporation Certification, becoming the first peer learning organization in Canada to do so.

Corp Certified.” She adds, “This certification exemplifies our dream of populating the world with inspiring leaders and will serve as a road map as we strive to have a continued positive impact for our employees, communities and environment.”
