  2. Who was there with you when sat down to put the idea together ? Include the year you started.
  3. Would you say that you are a stormerpreneur? Tell us why you answered yes or no.
  4. What is the mission of your organization?
  5. What is the vision?
  6. How does the mission and vision fit or help you to fulfil your personal purpose and ambitions?
  7. What were the top 5-10 activities you completed in 2020?
  8. Which played the greatest role in advancing the delivery of your Mission?
  9. When you add it all up— would you say your drift was positive? Or was it mostly negative?
  10. Which product or service do you currently offer— that is a must have for readers of this publication or people who could use your solution?
  11. What can we expect from your business over the next two years?
  12. Where can they learn more or purchase your service? Web site or social media link, calendar or email link

Call for Papers The Noësis: MWildhorse Strategy and Performance Magazine 2019

Deadline: April 26, 2019

Visibility and simplicity―do you know an entrepreneur, a consultant, or business that could do without one or the other?

We didn’t think so.  So, we strive to give organizations and entrepreneurs the best of both.

In today’s world where the language of business expands almost daily and growth-related concepts can be tough to understand, The Noësis aims to bring understanding and simplicity —disambiguation.

Its content will facilitate understanding of tough business and development concepts― while accelerating the learning of industry language and how-to.

And by so doing help organizations and entrepreneurs get more out of their investment in consulting solutions. Practitioners and consultants can expect content that will help them to improve their craft.

The power of visibility as that first step towards building trust is one the worst kept secrets of today.

Still not all visibility carries the same weight. For that reason, this magazine is designed to provide opportunities for accelerating solid trust in your expertise and business.

It does this by highlighting successful Caribbean and Canadian entrepreneurs, business related educational content, research findings, issues, trends, companies, stories, commentaries, book reviews and entertainment pieces.  In the mix will be articles and stories focused on growth related topics such as strategy, marketing, trade, performance management and measurement, intellectual property, and the creative industries.

While the focus is on Canada and the Caribbean we embrace and look forward to sharing with the global community.  This publication welcomes guest contributors from all continents, cultures, and ethnicities.  We look forward to presenting a rich blend of content by and about ambitious startups, gazelles in the making, the ordinary, the extra-ordinary and mainstream businesses, business ecosystems, consultants, and professional service providers.

The publication is a hybrid Magazine/Professional Journal geared towards C-level executives, entrepreneurs, researchers, practitioners, and consultants with an interest in strategy, marketing, evaluation, organizational assessments, international trade, FDI, entrepreneurship and international development.  It will be circulated to senior executives, business owners, and libraries.

The new Canadian-Caribbean Magazine is the only business magazine designed to promote the culture of Caribbean entrepreneurship; and entrepreneurship as a desirable, feasible and viable economic activity for Caribbean immigrants in Canada and other diasporic markets of the Region.

We want to see the growth of high performing Caribbean businesses in all major diaspora markets. We want to see the Caribbean culture of entrepreneurship and its entrepreneurial DNA deliver significant impact to entrepreneurs and the markets in which the businesses call home— as well as those they serve.  But we also want to hear the voice of others with no Caribbean roots who would love to meet and collaborate with Caribbeans through this publication.

To ensure simplicity and visibility we provide information, stimulate debate, share research, cases, and stories for ensuring organizational leaders and team have the necessary information for strategy success in starting and growing their businesses.  We want to see greater impact from international development initiatives especially in ACP Countries; therefore, we will address those issues and explore solutions.

The Noësis: MWildhorse Strategy and Performance Magazine

Posted on by

In 2016, we decided to take our client learning digest to you in the form of a hybrid Magazine/Professional Journal— The Noësis: MWildhorse Strategy and Performance Magazine.

Some of you are familiar with The Noësis, the brainchild of Meegan Scott. A publication first released in 2013 as a learning aide for ensuring our clients fully understand, appreciate and leverage their consulting solutions.

springcover2018sampleIn 2018, we present to you a magazine with the same themes and two additional objectives.  The publication maintains its purpose to simplify and facilitate understanding of tough business and development concepts while accelerating the learning of industry language and how-to.

It does this through its content—showcasing of successful Caribbean and Canadian entrepreneurs, research findings, issues, trends, companies, stories, commentaries, book reviews and entertainment pieces.  Articles and stories focus on growth related topics such as strategy, marketing, trade, performance management and measurement, intellectual property and the creative industries.

The new Magazine is the only business magazine designed to promote the culture of Caribbean entrepreneurship and entrepreneurship as a desirable, feasible and viable economic activity for Caribbean immigrants in Canada and other diasporic markets of the Caribbean.

Providing a forum for awakening desire, driving aspiration and moving significantly more Caribbean immigrants to answer the call of entrepreneurship— is a new objective for the publication.  We want to see the growth of high performing Caribbean businesses in all major Diaspora markets. We want to see the Caribbean culture of entrepreneurship and its entrepreneurial DNA deliver significant impact to entrepreneurs and the markets in which the businesses call home— as well as those they serve.

Hence, we will provide information, stimulate debate, share research and stories for ensuring you have the necessary information for strategy success in starting and growing your businesses.  We want to see greater impact from international development initiatives especially in ACP Countries; therefore, we will address those issues and explore solutions.

Towards that end we are providing a forum through which emerging and seasoned researchers, consultants and practitioners in Canada, ACP Countries, the Caribbean and its Diaspora can share the findings of their research, connect with entrepreneurs and issues facing organizational leaders and their teams both within and external to the Caribbean community. That commitment unveiled the second of your new objectives.

What motivated me to upgrade and expand “The Noësis: MWildhorse Strategy and Learning Digest” to the current The Noësis: MWildhorse Strategy and Performance Magazine?

Learnings from our consulting engagements, discussions with entrepreneurs, lived experience as a Caribbean-Canadian entrepreneur and research into our performance as entrepreneurs in Canada and other Diaspora markets.

I take this opportunity to invite you to submit original research notes, opinions, technical reports, articles, anecdotes,cartoons, and stories (Both of triumph and failures).

The Magazine is sponsored by Magate Wildhorse Ltd., but will allow for limited advertising by one or two brands per issue.

The success of this publication and its objective depends on your response and actions.  We are committed to updating The Noësis based on your needs and feedback.

Thank you for your feedback and subscriptions.
