  • Company History
    company History The history of Boston Pizza is as diverse as the menu items it serves up. Started in Edmonton, Alberta in 1964 when Greek immigrant Gus Agioritis opened Boston Pizza and Spaghetti House, the concept quickly grew in popularity and a franchise was born. One of the first franchisees was former R.C.M.P. officer, Jim Treliving, who opened the doors to his first restaurant in Penticton, British Columbia in 1968. It was through this franchise that he met chartered accountant George Melville, who assumed the position of Treliving’s business consultant and eventual business partner. Within a decade, the two men built a chain of 16 restaurants in B.C. giving them the hands-on experience that would eventually lead to their future roles as the franchisors of Boston Pizza International. In 1983, Treliving and Melville purchased Boston Pizza International Inc. (BPI) and its chain of 44 restaurants from then owner Ron Coyle. The pair immediately divested their restaurants to franchisees, and established systems and operating standards that would set the stage for sustainable growth across the country. An expansion in to Eastern Canada was always on Treliving and Melville’s radar and was brought to life in September 1998 when the first location opened in Ottawa, Ontario. Today there are more than 110 restaurants in Ontario, 25 locations in Quebec and 18 in Atlantic Canada. As the company continued to grow in Canada, Treliving and Melville set their sights south of the border and in 2000 began expansion of the brand to the United States. Originating in Dallas, Texas, and operating under the banner “Boston’s The Gourmet Pizza”, the brand continues to grow in the United States and Mexico.

  • Organizational Psychology
    ORGANIZATIONAL PSYCHOLOGY TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT - MA 204-1 GENERAL OBJECTIVES OF THE SUBJECT At the end of the course, Individuals will examine the principles of organizational psychology; apply them within companies; critically reflect emotional behavior within companies and their impact on the development of this. 7. EMPLOYEE TRAINING & DEVELOPMENT 7.1 What is Training & Development? 7.2 Designing Effective Training 7.3 The Need for Leadership and Coaching 7.4 Customer Service and Quality Emphasis 7.1 What is Training & Development? Training refers to a planned effort by a company to facilitate employees’ learning of job-related competencies. These competencies include knowledge, skills, or behaviours that are critical for successful job performance in the immediate term or near future. This is in contrast with development, which is training that provides employees with competencies for anticipated future jobs and roles. The goal of training is for employees to master the knowledge, skill, and behaviours emphasized in training programs and to apply them to their day-to-day activities. Recently it has been acknowledged that to impart a competitive advantage, training has to involve more than just basic skill development and training to gain a competitive advantage. Companies should view training broadly as a way to create intellectual capital. Intellectual capital includes basic skills (skills needed to perform one’s job), advanced skills (such as how to use technology to share information with other employees), an understanding of the customer or manufacturing system, and self-motivated creativity. Keep in mind that traditionally most of the emphasis on training has been at the basic and advanced skill levels.

Box 30 Fax: 819-363-5155 Kingsey Falls, Quebec J0A 1B0 Canada www.cascades.com CASCADES ACQUIRES CONTAINERBOARD PACKAGING PLANTS IN ONTARIO AND INCREASES ITS OWNERSHIP IN GREENPAC Kinsey Falls, QC, December 4, 2017 – Cascades Inc. (TSX: CAS) announces the acquisition of four plants in Ontario to strengthen its position in the containerboard packaging sector, and the purchase of an ownership position in Tencorr Holdings Corporation (“Tencorr”). The company also announces an increase in its equity holding of the Greenpac Mill LLC (“Greenpac”). “We are very pleased to expand our presence in Ontario and increase our stake in Greenpac for the second time this year. These transactions align perfectly with our vision and strategy for our containerboard activities,” stated Cascades President and CEO Mario Plourde. The four following plants were acquired from the Coyle family, and specialize in the manufacturing of boxes and speciality products offering strong growth potential: - McLeish Corr-a-Box Packaging & Design – Etobicoke, Ontario - Brown Packaging – Burlington, Ontario - Coyle Corrugated Containers Inc. – Scarborough, Ontario - Coyle Packaging (Peterborough) Ltd. – Peterborough, Ontario This transaction will allow Cascades to expand its presence in Ontario, to increase its production capacity by 500 million square feet per year, and to strengthen its ability to serve customers in this region. These plants already have procurement agreements with Greenpac, and as such the transaction will have little impact on Cascades’ integration rate. Cascades has also acquired the Coyle family’s 33% stake in Tencorr, a company specialized in manufacturing sheet stock for box producers.
