CMC-AB Virtual Happy Hour
The Alberta Virtual Happy Hour is held the first Thursday of every month. We encourage CMCs, associate members, and those interested in the profession across Alberta and Canada to join us for a discussion on different topics relevant to the management consulting profession. Typically, we start with a conversation starter where 1-2 learned colleagues share their knowledge on a particular subject and afterwards break out into discussion groups.
This an opportunity to get together with colleagues, enjoy a beverage (virtually), and share ideas on how we can move forward together through these challenging times. CMCs can claim 2 CPD credits towards your annual CPD compliance.

CMC Book Club Express
It’s official, CMC has a book club. A book club specially designed for people who want all the benefits of a book club without reading the book.
CMC Book Club Express
CMC Book Club Express is a fun and easy way to explore new books on leadership and management, get to know other CMC members, laugh and meet one of your professional development requirements.
HOW IT WORKS
Each month a book summary is selected from the Youexec.Com collection of book summaries. Youexec.com is an executive resource portal used by over 900,000 executives worldwide. Membership to the portal is one of the benefits of your CMC membership.
To participate in the CMC Book Club Express you simply read the selected book summary, register to attend, and log in to the Zoom meeting room. Don’t think you even have time to read a book summary – no worries there is a 20- minute audio summary to download. To access your YouExec account, check out your member benefits page.
THIS MONTH:
The book this month is Playing to Win: How Strategy Really Works. Bring your lunch, your coffee or your cocktail depending on your time zone.
Are you playing the game or are you playing to win? Chances are your competitors are doing the latter. Develop a winning strategy for your company, business unit, or new product launch with former Procter & Gamble CEO A.G. Lafley and co-author, Roger L. Martin’s recipe for success. Lafley and Martin lay out the simple steps of strategy in the form of five questions, the most important of which are “Where to play?” and “How to win?”
