Growing a team to win elections and lead a political party
What does it take to be a political leader? For Peter Milobar, it is a constant learning process, running in all different kinds of elections at the local and provincial levels, and growing his team along the way. His dream is to become leader of the Conservative Party of BC and become the premier of British Columbia, which involves listening to and recruiting personnel from all parts of the province.
Entrepreneurship and politics: it’s about the people
Being a politician isn’t easy. According to Yuri Fulmer, it means a lot of travelling and talking to people face-to-face. As a candidate for the leadership of the Conservative Party of British Columbia, it is vital for him to get to know the people he seeks to represent – no matter where in BC they live. While this is a tall task for anyone, this was not something Yuri thought he’d do, while growing up in Australia. What started as a 3-week journey in Canada ended up being 34 years – starting with a humble job at A&W, he learned how to lead through franchising a location in New Westminster and developed the entrepreneurship skills that shaped who he is today.
