SUMMARY:Lunch & Learn - Demystifying the Business Plan - Aurora Chamber
DESCRIPTION:&ldquo;We don&rsquo;t plan to fail, ....we fail to plan !&rdquo;     Poor or absent planning is one of the leading underlying causes for failure of small-to-medium sized businesses, (&rdquo;SME&rsquo;s&rdquo;) throughout the world. Incredibly, more than 80% of SME&rsquo;s have no (formal) Business Development Plan. What planning exists is often ad hoc, and all in the owner&rsquo;s head.     &ldquo;Demystifying the Business Plan&rdquo; will provide an overview of basic strategic and developmental business planning concepts and approaches. It will present the steps and components of business planning in a simple, understandable way, and provide guidance as to how any business owner or leader might move forward with building a plan, without having to spend hours each week researching, analysing and writing, when business already takes up all their time.    Andy Hewitson is the President of Hewitson Management Solutions, Inc., (&ldquo;HMSI&rdquo;), an advisory services firm whose mission is to help owners and leaders of small-to-medium sized business throughout York Region, the GTA and the Golden Horseshoe, grow and thrive. He is an Accredited Senior Executive Associate of the Institute for Independent Business.
