I have been speaking about business monkey, macaws, and mimics over the past days. If you are yet to figure out your business monkey and don’t know what the crap I am talking about, I invite you to take the survey at the following link, http://magatewildhorse.ca/planning-risk-and-entrepreneurship-survey/.

This survey is not a customer feedback or customer satisfaction instrument; it is designed to give to you and your business as much as it is designed to share your thoughts and viewpoints with us.

We received your calls and texted messages for an extension; we will therefore extend the deadline for completing the survey to midnight April 29, 2016.

You will find that a segment of the survey will force you into a bit of strategic thinking for your business, career in management or human resource management. You are bound to walk away with a few ideas or viewpoints that you would have come up with yourself.

Tell us about the point in the Survey when you got that “Bing” regarding your business monkey if you have not yet found it. It might also be your “monkey” regarding hiring and adding human talent to your business. Perhaps a seed will be planted and you will find your monkey tomorrow, next week, or even next month.

20 something minutes is a worthy investment in strategic thinking for career or business. Many thanks to those of you who have already completed the survey.

Thanks also for the feedback regarding your experience.

We thank the respondents who texted, called or Email to indicate that they have completed the Survey.

We look forward to the views of those who will share during the next couple of hours!

Have a great day!
