"How to do it" Initiatives
Enterprise Facilitation Economic Development Use "Enterprise Facilitators" to help individuals succeed with their own small business ideas. This is done through consultations to help them develop sound business management products, distribution, finances, and marketing. Enterprise facilitation helps motivated individuals but does not initiate, plan, finance, or subsidize projects. Scenario Thinking Event This is a catalyst for implementing new business ideas. Big ideas are explored. People are encouraged to enjoy the process and be an advocate. Jay Ogilvy, well known scenario expert will help us with this event. |
