Stanley Remple brings more than fifty-five years of different levels of business leadership involvement in both small and large businesses; public sector, and non-profit organizations; and academic institutions in various countries, including Canada, the US, Russia, Belarus, Kenya, and China. His experience in China includes consulting, training, mentoring of business leaders, and leadership program development. Remple served as a founder and director of a Mandarin graduate program in business leadership for over a decade. Remple believes deeply in practical value-based leadership and wrote the Leadership Wisdom for Businesses in China series to share with others what he has learned over his lifetime and as part of his continuing journey to develop his own self-leadership skills. Remple's commitment to lifetime learning with a focus on religion, philosophy, psychology, social work, health care, aboriginal services, services to seniors, mental health education, and community development, have had major wholistic learning impacts. Remple has a BA, MSW, MPH, Ph.D., and Post-Graduate Dip MHA. This important inter-disciplinary background has contributed to his wholistic and humanistic approach to creating profitable business organizations that work as a community while serving customers, local communities, and the nation. Remple views a business as necessarily a responsible and accountable citizen. Remple has been awarded a Governor General's medal for his contribution to Canadian citizens and in his "retirement" continues to guest lecture at universities, consult within the Chinese community, being a board member, and mentor international business executives. He lives on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia, Canada with his wife of sixty years. Together they enjoy a busy social life that includes wine and book clubs, golfing, playing bridge, and international travel.
