Uplifting midsize business economy, nation by nation
Although neglected, the revival of midsize business
economy is extremely critical, as declaration of trade-wars on others are
increasingly becoming living proofs of one’s own unskilled citizenry unable to quadruple
exports. More heroic are the real declarations of internal skills-wars to
retrain nation’s working citizenry to stand up to global-age standards of
performance, productivity and quadrupling exportability bringing in local grassroots
prosperity for better harmony. Observe the restless citizenry and the brutal decline
of small medium enterprises amongst developed nation. Critically needed, to
catch up lost decade a generational transformation is required, such challenges
demand global-age style execution and are less dependent on new funding. So who is blocking and what’s stopping all
this?
First, the driving philosophy:
So long the proof of the decimated grassroots prosperity among developed economies of the world is not required; so long the leadership accepts the calls of restless citizenry entangled on diversity and tolerance issues and growing populism. Although not be confused when cries about social justice and inequality often being bundled on ethnic and gender lines and labeled as mass populism. Very calm and very deep discussions are mandatory.
Furthermore, to explore reality, we must acknowledge that when mankind is in trouble, only mankind’s rules will solve the issues. In searching of answers, observe how the mind is limitless and hardwired like the open universe, therefore, eliminating random routes to endless journeys, a focused mind is one of the biggest achievements of life. If the mind is a miracle of the universe, the body its natural temple, self-discovery, self-optimization and lifelong learning is where we need to start once again on a new blank page. We need focus and we need harmonious progress.
To deploy technology in right directions and create highly productive national working citizenry compatible with global-age demands we have to fall back on mind. Civilization has always survived on these humanistic challenges with common-sense advancement principles.
Therefore, now enters an entrepreneurial mind; a product of lifelong learning, a cognizant and very capable element to handle such local, national or global tasks. Being added to the world are currently some billion new entrepreneurs in Asia, after all, it were some 100,000 entrepreneurs whom carved out the entrepreneurial supremacy of America that lasted well over a century. On productivity, performance, and supremacy of excellence our new world is zipping by the hour with no mercy for crawling nations. New speed of critical thinking and global age execution style must emerge across the nation or it will simply grind economy to halt. A lot of proof is out there
Especially, if the above national uplifting deployments and mobilizations are not new funding dependent but are rather combinations of technologically advanced global-age styles of execution dependent so now the main issue of what’s stopping all this should become the core issue.
Hidden in the differentiation with deeper understanding of “extreme-value-creation’ grassroots economies” and the “domination of ‘hologramic-debt-based economies” and this is where the future challenges are buried.
What can nations do?
During recent decades, developed economies were too slow to understand ‘soft-power-asset-management’
the art of imagining things over ‘hard-asset-centricity’ where staying deeply stuck
to old routines on old factory floors is rewarded. This is like when forbidden
are the bicycle makers to dream of ‘drones’ or flying cars. Some 100 millions
small and large plants around the world are badly stuck in old groves of decades
old mentality, unable to transform to the meaning of global-age, unable to rapidly
optimize to grow to new heights with new global age thinking and execution.
Imagine all that wasted potential, talent and machinery, infrastructure under
dead weight of old mentality still logged into hard-assets… deeper studies are
critical.
Next: A Global Revolution of Mind
Self-discovery poised to find all hidden potentials,
Self-optimization to deploy all new skills and potentials
Realization of producing extreme-value.
Realization of producing extreme-image-positioning.
Market navigation to reach global corners.
Understanding value of creating local grassroots prosperity.
Learning to live in harmony, diversity and tolerance
Rest is fakery
As new measurements of success; nations are now required to prove their mastery of transforming their own working-citizenry capable of global age skills with lifelong learning? To ensure a nation ending up with soft-power-assets and to become globally agile on trade and claim their global image supremacy of innovative excellence, leaving far behind hard-asset-centric traditionally structured economies based on short-term profit results.
New models of creating national wealth and identity; If investing only on selected lower hanging fruits is considered a good strategy, now investing more into hidden jungles and new trees while they grow into new fruitful heights will become an even smarter strategy. Building a soft-power-asset-centric society is much better over maintaining large industrial age complexes. Economies will increasingly face restless youth and anxious citizenry and there is nothing more critical than creating nationwide grassroots prosperity, all via lifelong learning and uplifting fear of automation, because displaced citizenry needs protection. As the cycle of laborious-work are getting replaced by smart-work while smart-work getting replaced by smarter machines, the ‘Masters of Robots’ will be the new smart unlearners, the ‘Slaves of Robots’ will be the deniers of change.
Critical Observations: Why immediate replacement of old education system around the world with new global-age transformation has become so necessary? It’s a liability on national productivity, it’s a burden of debt on the emerging youth of any nation and it’s rotten from the inside damaging economic philosophies in silence of the day.
This can be a wake-up call for economies of the world; rethinking,
reprioritizing, reinvesting and reinventing investable all over. Is it is easy
to transform people?
No, it’s almost impossible most of the
times.
Here are some global-age options and new style thinking.
Calling mass transformation and mobilization of working-citizenry
Four Enlightenments:
Self-Discovery; close your eyes and discover your hidden talents, create supreme performance and become a global age thinker. This will open entrepreneurial thinking.
Enterprising Journeys; open your eyes and study the global age and indulge at the enterprise level, build and create massive growth. Do something phenomenal. This will open new business ideas.
Grassroots Prosperity; open your mind and lead by example, deploy and create grassroots prosperity, improve surroundings, help teams, share knowledge and create extreme value. This will open collaborative thinking and leadership roles.
National Mobilization; open your heart and share your authoritative command and knowledge, mobilize and help your own nation and make sure it is moving in the right direction, assist in boosting the national economy.
Mankind demands straight answers, seeks new alternatives, strives for grassroots prosperity and ready to lift the weight via power of entrepreneurialism
New Challenges:
Can a nation declare top priority to discover its hidden and untapped talents
of their citizenry?
Can it demonstrate superior skills to mobilize small and medium businesses
across the nation?
Can it adopt continuous self-learning to foster occupational superiority for
the nation?
Can national leadership demonstrate refined understanding of entrepreneurial
skills?
Fact: The world can
easily absorb unlimited exportable ideas in unlimited vertical markets.
Fact: The well-designed innovative ideas are worthy of such quadrupled volumes.
Fact: The entrepreneurial and dormant talents of a nation are capable of such
tasks.
Fact: The new global age skills, knowledge and execution are now the missing
links
The Five Pillars of Global-Age
Transformation:
Global Age Exportability:
What’s really stopping a high potential enterprise from expanding to 100
countries?
Global Age Thinking:
What will it take to re-organize and operate as a multinational organization
with little or no extra costs?
Global Age Modeling:
How to optimize and integrate soft power assets against sluggish hard asset
centricity.
Global Age Execution:
How to get trained to achieve what normally takes 365 normal days to do it in
only 365 dramatic hours.
Global Age Presence:
How to bring the image supremacy of innovative excellence into global space and
profit.
Global Age Prosperity:
How to become a magnet of prosperity with new revenues, new funding, and new
alliances
Cold Facts and Warm Realities: Success at times is failure management; failure is often a lost battle, but not a lost war, as ultimate success is not necessarily winning the war, success is far more about understanding the battlefield, as the real victory is hidden outside the war. Soon, economic leadership will be less about raw commodities and infrastructures and more about mental endurance and global age skills of its citizenry. Imagination and entrepreneurialism is far more important over commodities and infrastructures
Three steps for Midsize Economy to advance on grassroots prosperity:
Identify 1000 to 10,000 or 1,000,000 small and midsize entrepreneurs within a nation, and create a national agenda to quadruple their performance on innovative excellence and exportability. Caution–this is not to be confused with old out-dated-dysfunctional-government-data rather it requires the assembly of ultra-modern-digital and current-profiles of midsize enterprises within a nation. Deploy digitization of top national trade associations and chambers of commences to upgrade to world-class digital platforms so that their entire membership can skate nationally and globally showcasing their goods and services. Caution–this is not to be confused with already broken and disconnected websites from the last decade; this is more like LinkedIn format with colorful and highly interactive platforms. Study Expothon Strategy and how over a decade it has perfected the model; observe how Worldbank also adopted similar approach with their well executed Econothon project. Expect some serious deployments in this arena. It is time to engage the national entrepreneurial talent, 1000-10,000- or 1,000,000 small and midsize businesses in ongoing discussions and high quality entrepreneurial debates and to create global bounce that will unveil unlimited growth. Caution– this is not to be confused with a single plastic award night; this is about outstanding performance of the remaining 364 days of the year each filled with active and daily engagements.
Timelines: Once tackled the mobilization agenda starts progress within a year or less.
Serious Questions:
Why is there a critical lack of knowledge?
Was there ever a senior level debate and authoritative discussion on such
deep integrations? Some 10,000 Chambers
of Commerce of the world are sorting out trade wars and trade disputes, but
there is little or no concentration on new global age demands of the global
marketplace for their memberships. In
the meantime there are some 100,000 National Trade Associations of the world
stuck in last century thinking when it comes to advanced level digital
platforms and are afraid about their future roles and return on investment on
membership fees. They all will shine under new flags of creating new global
bounce and prosperity. Caution—what’s already on the floor of these
organizations is just dead weight, in needs of a scale-up to measure the
opportunity loss. Public Sectors of the world are grossly under-optimized and
have little or no knowledge of their own hidden talents. They are seriously afraid of
entrepreneurialism and without global-age skills or innovative ideas they know
nothing about taming the elephant of global survival. It is time for the Public
Sector to become confident, highly optimized and fearless, and will contribute
freely to new ideas and prosper.
By all means, such transformations are no easy task; but however, they are less dependent on new-funding but are heavily dependent on global-age-execution and strategic agenda
In the meanwhile, the small and mid-size economies of the world though in critical need of global age expertise, are already drowning in hot soup and do not have the time, finances or the luxury to intellectualizing such issues. They have already lost faith in their local support but once rejuvenated they will become the number one source of new job creation within the nation and once they wake up to the fact that prosperity is easily in their reach. Lifelong learning and systematic training and coaching is where the missing links are as individually it cannot but in a massive mobilization mode it games a game changer for all small and medium enterprises. So what’s stopping this?
The overflow of free technologies, progressive local, national and global solutions are grossly misunderstood and the least optimized areas. This is an ocean in need swimmers and scuba-divers.
Such programs also improve current status of the national issues, like:
Nations are already flooded with massive innovations, but lack
massive commercialization.
Nations have over certifications and degrees but seriously lack business
directions.
Nations have empty incubators and exhausted accelerators like real estate
projects.
Nations have economic development programs but often without mega punch.
A Round-table or Senior Cabinet Level discussions is always good starting point.
