can also test themselves at any time of the journey with multiple directions. These different directions can help one determine which is the best path to success.

VALUE: Value is an important part of your journey because one should value every step of their journey towards success and not leave anything out. If you feel at any moment that you are losing the value with which you were suppose to get to by the end of the journey, then you should make corrections and go towards the right path. Value is something that no one can hand to you on a plate and is something that must be created and earned.

DETERMINATION: Determination is perhaps the most important aspect towards gaining success. Let me give you an example; If you want to become a business man and you have no funds, it does not mean you should give up. Your determination should help you find a solution for this roadblock.

CLASSIFICATION: When you are looking at success you have to classify what type of success you want to achieve. Whether it is success in your family life, business success or education success, the only way you will feel that you are successful is when you archive your life in all of these sectors and know what you want to succeed in.

ACHIEVEMENTS: Achievement is a gift of success but one must figure out what they are trying to achieve. If you know what you are setting out to achieve this will make it easier to achieve HONESTY: If one does not remain honest with themselves and the ones they work with they are bound to come across roadblocks on their journey towards success.

By being honest and righteous, your journey will surely be smoother. Honesty is also important once one has achieved success in order to maintain in the long run.

5. TRANSPARENCY IS THE KEY TO COMMUNICATION. Creating an environment of transparency, where you speak openly about your business to your employees and they feel comfortable coming to you with anything that's on their minds can do wonders for the collective motivation of your workplace. That's because transparency builds trust; when people understand that you aren't hiding anything, and that you'll listen to anybody, they're far more likely to respect you as an authority and appreciate you as a leader. It also opens inter-departmental channels, giving employees and supervisor’s greater clarity and more opportunities to openly communicate.

PROFILE MICHAEL MCCAIN MAPLE LEAF FOODS CEO

MBE BUSINESS MAGAZINE APRIL / MAY 2020

W W W. M B E F O RYOU. C O M

Michael Harrison McCain (born 13 November 1958) is a Canadian business executive, currently serving as the President and Chief Executive Officer of Maple Leaf Foods since January 1, 1999.

Born in Florenceville-Bristol, New Brunswick, McCain is the son of Wallace McCain, the co-founder of McCain Foods and Margaret McCain, a Canadian philanthropist.

McCain is listed on Canadian Business Magazine’s 100 richest Canadians with a net worth of CA $4.15 billion as of August 2019.

McCain studied at the Mount Allison University and then Ivey School of Business at the University of Western Ontario. He graduated in 1979 with a Bachelor of Arts in business administration. In 2014, McCain received an honorary doctorate from Carleton University in recognition of his leadership in economic development.

In 1979, he joined McCain Foods sales department and worked up into management. By 1986, he became the President of McCain Citrus Incorporated and in 1990, was appointed as the President and Chief Executive Officer of McCain Foods USA Incorporated. In the 1990s, a prolonged legal dispute between McCain co-founders and brothers Wallace and Harrison McCain over succession to the company leadership ended with the departure of Wallace and Michael from McCain Foods.

As CEO of Maple Leaf Foods, McCain was lauded for his handling of the outbreak. The Globe and Mail hailed McCain as "a role model for crisis management" for his contributions toward containing the incident. Writing in The Conversation, Deborah de Lange praised McCain's transparency, ethics, and leadership skills during the outbreak, referring to his "track record of leadership", and Hill+Knowlton Strategies's Jane Shapiro referred to it as "a textbook example of how to handle a crisis."

McCain was named the Business Newsmaker of 2008 by the Canadian press. Writing a 2013 case study in the Financial Times, business theorist Morgen Witzel noted that in addition to accepting responsibility, McCain's recovery strategy included a hiring freeze but open hiring in the food safety department, which was to hire at any cost.

In January 2020, McCain attracted attention by lambasting Trump, calling him "a narcissist in Washington" and holding him responsible for the events that led to the Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752 being shot down by Iran, in which a colleague at the company lost his wife and 11-year-old son.

Following his comments, McCain, well-known for his philanthropic endeavors, has been complimented by some for his humanity, and criticized by others, for neglecting shareholder interests, as reactionary calls for a boycott of the company after his comments made their way into mainstream news impacted stock prices.

McCain joined Maple Leaf Foods as President and Chief Operating Officer in April 1995, and is currently President and Chief Executive Officer of the firm. McCain is also the director of Maple Leaf Foods, McCain Capital Corporation and McCain Foods Group Inc. McCain is also a board member for several Canadian firms including Royal Bank of Canada, the American Meat Institute, and also serves on the board of trustees of the Hospital for Sick Children. He was also director of the American Frozen Food Institute and Bombardier, the Canadian multinational manufacturer of commercial jets.

Maple Leaf Foods employs roughly 12,000 people across Canada, the U.S. and Asia with 75% of their business in Canada. Maple Leaf is also the first large-scale manufacturing food company in the world to make an effort to become carbon neutral.

The 2008 Canadian listeria outbreak in Canada was linked to cold cuts from a Maple Leaf Foods plant in Toronto, Ontario.

There were 57 total confirmed cases, resulting in 22 deaths.

MOST RETAIL EXPERIENCES SUCK Just think about it. Think of a time when you went to go buy shoes in the mall. First, you need to spend time getting to the mall and finding parking if you drone. Then, when you first walk in, you’ll have to walk half a kilometer to find the shoe store you are looking for. And finally, when you reach the store to buy shoes, you’re bombarded with sales tactics to get you to buy everything in the store.

IT’S NOT AS A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE AS ORDERING SOMETHING ONLINE IN THE COMFORT OF YOUR HOME. There are usually more deals found when doing online shopping as well. For example, flash discounts through email marketing that you usually won’t get in store, and you can see from all these growing retail industries that they create value for their customer.

There are usually more deals found when doing online shopping as well. For example, flash discounts through email marketing that you usually won’t get in store.

THIS PRESENTS TWO OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOUR BUSINESS IDEAS 1: Follow the trends and don’t start a retail storefront in the declining industries, and stock within the growing industries if you want a retail-based business. If you need help finding trends, you can use these 12 tools for discovering business idea trends.

2: Design more engaging, fun and value-added aspects to a declining retail industry, and see how you can substantially stand out from the competition and take market share from the current competitors.

Next time you sit down with your list of retail-based business ideas, ask yourself those questions I put in above, and see if the company you want to start will actually provide an amazing experience and add value to someone’s life.

Since the death of Prince Albert i.e. the husband of Queen Victoria in Dec 1861, the Queen has been portrayed by many actresses in films and theatre as wearing black outfits which displays the state of mourning and shock she had been into after Prince Albert’s death.

ASSASINATION ATTEMPTS ON THE LIFE OF QUEEN VICTORIA: A personality who witnessed 6 assassination attempts. The first attempt happened in the year 1840 by an 18 year old whose name was Edward Oxford and happened in London.

Two years later another attempt on the life of Queen, when a man named John Francis fired a gun at the carriage but missed. Just about after two months another attempt happened i.e. the third attempt. John William Bean actually fired an ammo that was made from tobacco and paper and was fired on Queen Victoria, however she survived.

The fourth attempt happened in 1849 when William Hamilton, an angry Irishman fired a pistol at her carriage.

Victoria was living close and living proof of the fact that if you stay around in politics long enough, you are bound to make many enemies.

In 1850, happened for the fifth time i.e. the Fifth attempt when an ex-army officer hit her with his cane, his name in history books is Robert Pate. Lastly, and incredibly the 6th attempt happened in 1882, the name was Robert Mclean who tried to kill her but his bullet missed her fortunately.

FROM QUEEN TO MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER: Everything happened at a fast pace in the life of Queen Victoria similarly she became grandmother at a very young age i.e. 39 years old and a great grandmother 20 years later i.e. at the age of 59. She was not only the Queen of England and British monarchies, she was also a mother of 9 children. She suffered a major drawback of living a long life, and it was tragic of her to have outlived three of her children.

A FAMOUS PERSONALITY IN BRITISH HISTORY: According to a BBC Poll, Queen Victoria was named the 18th Briton in a BBC Poll in 2002. Winston Churchill former Prime Minister of Britain during World War II took the number 1 position. Princess Diana was number 3, William Shakespeare #5, John Lennon #8 and Queen Victoria was followed on the list by Paul McCartney. She also became the only British Monarch in the modern music history whose name was honored.
