Global SME Strategies & National Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism

As a new world emerges, the global economic challenges, focusing on grassroots prosperity and the revival of national SME sectors, are now challenging economic thinking. They offer us a chance to revisit century-old wisdom on growth development strategies, presenting critical global SME solutions and mandatory steps on the National Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism. It's time to relax and listen.

The global facts: Superpower economies of the world only emerged with the national mobilization of entrepreneurialism. No growing nation today lacks the highly focused mobilization of national SMEs, youth, women, and entrepreneurial talents.

No super-victory of the highest order was ever acquired on the battlefields without the mobilization of the forces. No commander ever climbed the highest ranks without special skills to lead, train, and mobilize all forces combined.

No nation can survive without mobilizing its citizenry capable of standing up to the global age of competitiveness. No other power except 'Entrepreneurial mysticism', a term that encapsulates the innovative, risk-taking, and growth-oriented spirit of entrepreneurship, provides the topsoil where the largest enterprises in the world grow.

Fact: Over a million entrepreneurs have already created over a million original small and medium businesses and grown them into each, creating over a million jobs. Why the lingering fear of identifying at least one Nobel Prize Winner in Economics, whoever built one such enterprise?

Fact: As LinkedIn has already shown during the last decade, 99% of all economic development teams have yet to gain direct or personal experience in the creation, building, and management of any SMEs in their lifetime. Frequent flyers are fun, but fully trained pilots are needed to fly an airline. Do not blame capitalism; do not point to global challenges, and only focus on internal skills in creating, developing, and managing SME sectors, categorically not as an academic exercise but foot-loose, out-of-the-box at times incomprehensible entrepreneurial mysticism.

Fact: Silicon Valley's recent global play did not originate from an economic study or academic idea but a global-scale expression of entrepreneurial mysticism. Untrained, unskilled dropouts emerged from garages with wires and buttons, initially laughed at and rejected by all institutions and governments as 'techies' before they changed the entire world forever. This is just one of many examples that demonstrate the transformative power of entrepreneurialism.

Hence, Urgently Needed Corrective Measures

Needed is a calculator: A calculator from the local dollar store to place the right amounts in all the right columns. No longer attributes the economic wizardry as visible value manipulation must be replaced with entrepreneurialism to bring real value creation. Totaled must be the grand opportunity losses over decades, significant numbers discouraged in the prime of youth, the volumes of energies of entrepreneurial men and women, and the untapped wealth, year after year. For so long, such losses have been untotaled, undefined, and invisible but still need to be accounted for across national budgets and economic evaluations spanning decades for their shock values. Recognizing entrepreneurialism as the most critical key to economic success is not just a theory but the only potential pathway to unlocking these hidden opportunities and driving economies forward.

Needed is an atlas: Throughout history, the success of nations has been like an open book, with only those countries that genuinely embraced entrepreneurialism as the lifeblood of grassroots prosperity able to rise to the status of super-economic powers. The potential of entrepreneurial mysticism to transform a simple lemonade stand into a thriving experience with a global enterprise like Coca-Cola, a legendary example like a beacon of hope for a bright economic future in every region. Study how superpower economies became superpowers not by economic intellectualism or discovery of mountains of gold and diamonds but exclusively by national mobilization of entrepreneurialism. Today, economics is just a numbering game, like sketching a skyscraper with precise measurement, but entrepreneurialism is like delivering an adequately constructed building to alter the city skyline. If a city were ever built only with such sketches, it would only collapse in the first storm. Today's economic houses of cards are on display, ready to crumble at the slightest disturbance of winds. On the other hand, entrepreneurialism is the sturdy foundation that ensures the resilience of business models and structures and real-value creation and growth.

Needed is a clock: The centuries old 9-5 working model has been almost dead since last decade. Study the performances of the super economic power nations. The 24-hour working model does not require each person to work 24 hours but requires the enterprise to be alive and breathing 24 hours on each day of the year. What is needed is the national mobilization of entrepreneurship. Only entrepreneurialism can outperform the numbering games of economic schools by real hardcore deliveries of ideas that are transformed into mammoth enterprises. The response is not about next week but the next minute. The message is not about thumbs-ups but an articulated dialogue leading to immediate action plans.

Needed is a calendar: Every day of the year, there is a holiday somewhere across the world. Since the lands before times, the sun, every second of the day, is constantly rising somewhere around the world. Forget the previous lost decade; find your sunrise. Find the fulcrum, balance the lever, apply human intelligence, create a dynamic economy, mobilize national citizenry on entrepreneurship to uplift all high-opportunity SME sectors, and find the best team to turn around the economic powers. Like yesterday. If meetings and planning take months or when email takes weeks and responses are only cordial emojis, for lack of content, the rate of progress in any department could be better. From the computer age of the last decades to the current 'global age, speed' can be compared to what was once 'milking-cow speed' to 'high-speed bottling' plants. Prepare seriously for an "instant response' world, like an on-and-off switch. Test your departments on this desk-by-desk and floor-by-floor and get shocked by your potential swimming abilities in such rivers. The human mind is limitless and instant. Get off the push-cart; re-learn to drive it like a formula car.

Needed is self-discovery: An urgent agenda for self-discovery is needed to establish a comparative analysis of performance and productivity results at all internal economic development groups. All national agencies critically need individual testing, group evaluations, and deployments to boost new knowledge, sharpen skills, and rebuild on fast tracks to catch lost decades. Poverty is not the absence of wealth but productivity. Economic struggle is not a lack of foreign exchange but poor exportability. SME abandonment is not access to finance but a need for specific skills in real-value creation. Economic failures are not about bad governments but the critical absence of entrepreneurialism.

Needed is an honest study: Already, there exists a world of too many SME studies; check out the last major 100 SME studies in the previous decade. Mainly conducted by purely academics, it critically needs to reference entrepreneurial job creator mindsets, and hence, such studies are highly disconnected from real challenges. Imagine watching a movie on Tarzan, where the filming is all about precise measurements of his bow, arrow, knife, and underwear, but nothing about who he is, where he came from, how he became Tarzan, why animals love him, and why is Jane chasing him and why he is called, the King of the Jungle? Just like entrepreneurs cannot write a scientific thesis, academic studies are only academic studies, not for tactical battle but safely housed in libraries.

Needed is a bicycle: Each SME is the grand puzzle of grand success; something only mystically blossoms in the hands of the entrepreneurial founder. This art as it is, "Tacit Knowledge," is something that cannot be written, like riding a bike or swimming. Study 100 entrepreneurs, then walk into a global accounting or law firm and observe the replicated armies of successful professionals. Accounting or law is "Explicit Knowledge," something written, explained with all the right and wrong steps in sequence, ready for memorizing and replicating. The most significant error of the economic intelligentsia is trapped in their glorification of 'explicit ' knowledge as a final cure to all and ignoring the hidden powers of the invisible 'tacit' knowledge as entrepreneurial mysticism, the mother of all commerce of the world.

Needed is an elephant: Are you calling baby elephants small? Each small and medium enterprise is primarily a large operation disguised as small but mysteriously growing. To decipher such narratives, one must recognize the most significant error of global economic thinking, where the small size of the business is never seen as a big business due to a lack of job creators' mindsets. Calling Baby Elephant small is a need for more knowledge of zoology. Calling small businesses small is the greatest error of economics. It demands big and open minds to see a box with few wires coming out of the garage becoming Apple, the world's most significant game changer. Why studies of some 1,000 other examples are mandatory to rationalize such thinking fully?

Needed is a lesson in basic Economy. Observe the rise of debt, like the flight of the Valkyries, the coyest declaration of debt as mighty success, and moist currency as the only joy-rides; all such issues demand clinical evaluation of mindsets. The overly glorified terminologies of twisted climatico-taxation and pharmacology intertwined with Eugenics and the banking cadre's march on new instruments to create access to finance. Ivy tubes dripping with adulations juxtaposed to New Industrial Complexes creating happy-go-lucky illusions of AI-rendered global success models, with fearful faces trying the best laughter poses for postings to appear alive. The cries of the worldwide populace, still inaudible inside the political rotundas, are a testament to the impact of political systems on our lives as the thumping of the march is slowly shaking down the pillars of celestial domes.

Needed are fast-track orientations: Instead of dwelling on the reasons behind the struggles of some 100 free economies, let's focus on the practical and feasible solutions that can be immediately implemented. These solutions address the lack of productivity and the growing populism, providing a clear path toward economic stability.

Needed now is a ringside seat: Visible on LinkedIn are the skills gaps, experiences, activities, posts, departmental performances, productivity, and profitability. The economic intellectualism of 100 free economies must explain the skills gaps. It must emerge with bold and candid narratives, while the visible damage to grassroots economies in most countries is a stark reminder. Needed are the collaborative debates backed by fast-track authoritative narratives on 'entrepreneurial mysticism' with deep orientations and global age training of all frontline teams

Facts: Economic development without entrepreneurialism is only economic destruction. Any political power without economic power is no power. Any economic power without entrepreneurial power is no growth. Any entrepreneurial power without a balanced mindset hypothesis is no power. The mindset hypothesis creates a balance between the job seeker's and job creator's mindsets. Increasing the debt ceiling is not an economic success but a grand failure. Abandoning a national citizenry that cannot stand up to global age competitiveness is a political failure. Inabilities to identify, categorize, and digitize high-potential SMEs is an economic development failure.

What needs to be fixed?
The National Grassroots Prosperity turned into National Grassroots Fires.

The Elections are only selections as cyclical makeovers.

The University education is an unproductive loss and a liability.

The Economy is broken from the outside, inside, and all around.

The governments are silent and scared to open any candid debates.

The Bureaucracies are afraid of and waiting for the wrath of AI.

What is stopping?
The absence of entrepreneurial mysticism in corner offices

The unbalanced mindsets on economic development floors

The wrong definitions of SMEs and mismatched information

The absence of digitization of national vertical economic sectors

The absence of national mobilization of entrepreneurialism

The absence of orientation and training on such topics

Needed is a Checklist: Ten Steps of Recommended Recoveries

One: It takes ten days to design, develop, and customize a digitalization program with particular entrepreneurialism-based training guidelines to uplift all high-potential SMEs nationwide.

Two: It takes another 30 days to custom-design deployment strategy for a National Administration and Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism (NAME Protocols).

Three: It takes another 30 days of customized developments to implement well-planned, sleek operations to uplift the entire high-potential SME economy.

Four: It takes an additional ten days to test and assess the true potential and identify existing talents of all current national economic development teams.

Five: It takes another ten days to orient, train, and align the various local and national economic development teams, achieve clarity, and reach consensus on procedures.

Six: It takes another 100 days to identify, categorize, and digitize 5000 to 50000 potential SMEs.

Seven: It takes another 100 days to place them on customized digital platforms to expand them nationally and globally for exports and trade.

Eight: It takes 365 days of intense up-skilling and re-skilling to help them scale up and quadruple their productivity, performance, and profitability.

Nine: It takes about 500 days to quadruple exportability and uplift the national SME economy sectors.

Ten: A Cabinet-level meeting must make the "National Administration and Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism (NAME Protocols)" a national reality.

Summary: Identify mastery; it takes a day to check, test, and measure entire national economic development teams and calculate the mindset balances, entrepreneurial gaps, and critical needs of authoritative expertise to start the economic development engines. Cabinet-level meetings and workshops are the best way to bring national mobilization thinking to a nation.

The Five Critical Keys to Success:
The Customization Key: what works out in one country is totally different in action and results in another. A highly focused special series of skilled discussions is essential under the master plan.

The Personalization Key: Each entrepreneur is unique; each small enterprise is only a large enterprise in the making. Mobilization is massive, large deployments where cross-fertilization becomes a natural process.

The Sectorization Key: Each small and medium enterprise landscape sector is a unique tactical battlefield. Therefore, a deep understanding of the global age is crucial to help these enterprises grow in national or international markets.

The Digitization Key: Each enterprise must be able to dance and skate on digital platforms. National mobilization of entrepreneurialism only creates oceans of SMEs, but only applying digitization creates deserts. With entrepreneurial mobilization centrality, little happens in the long run.

The Categorization Key: Unless minds are balanced and the right ideas match the right trajectory, 99% of SME programs worldwide do not advance because smaller SMEs are never permanently too small, and one-size-shoe planning never fits anyone. Earn mastery.

The Transformational Key: Amongst the economic development teams of 100-plus countries, some are yet to be exposed to the Expothon narratives, the new global trends, and critical analysis. The current global landscape demands that we face the realities and test our value offerings on the essential needs of the day. Economic failures and global civil unrest have become a test of skills and competency across all economies. Even if the above assertions are incorrect, they should not deter us from engaging in open debates. Silence now indicates fear of exposing levels of competencies. In search of immediate solutions, the times call for action; we are now opening the doors to new global debates crucial for our collective future.

The Internationalization Key: As more nations strive for internal investments, the need for a global image based on the 'Ease of Doing Business' ranking becomes crucial. Are they leading, lagging, or struggling at the bottom, and why? Where are the untapped potentials of SMEs, brimming with hopeful aspirations for the future? How well-prepared and articulate are their economic development teams to navigate the global age of competitiveness? This is not about global travel but about understanding power play of entrepreneurialism at global stage.

What needs to be added to the action on economic development today?

Across 100 free economies, how many economic development agencies, ministries, and departments, after a decade of opportunity of losses, are ready to realign and uplift their understanding of the global age and deploy national mobilization of entrepreneurialism?

How many universities are boldly engaged on such topics and ready to test out some constructive solutions? National leaders must find a better system to revive their national mobilization of entrepreneurialism or be ready to have an authoritative analysis of such affairs.

How many global institutions already claiming some entrepreneurialism and SME economic understanding are ready to present their top intelligentsia with proven experiences and highly pertinent skills to mobilize 1000 to 1000000 SMEs to stand up to the global age of competition?

What percentage of economic development teams can articulate such affairs? If this is a reality, what new measures are on the horizon to uplift the national economies? Once the potential of entrepreneurial skills, often seen as a mystical art, is illuminated in the debate, economics, typically viewed as a mathematical forensic science, takes on a new dimension. It's not just a strategic game but a transformative force that can turn a lemonade stand into a global Coca-Cola-type organization if the right strategies are applied at each growth stage.

Economic development, in reality, is a numbering game. The actual execution and creation of factories or manufacturing of new products are all entrepreneurial games. When architects draw skyscrapers, they are outstanding renderings, as it takes a team of experts on skyscraper building to deliver a new city skyline. If we allow only architects to play around with construction, 50% of skyscrapers will collapse. Jumbos will fall off the sky if they are in the hands of frequent flyers. Sumo wrestlers will be doing Swan Lake if trained by ballerinas.

Bureaucratic Adjustments: The most prominent gift of modern technology, aside from the push-button fixing of national digital elections, is the new capability to eliminate millions of bureaucrats responsible for the largest money-consuming overheads in each country. AI-centric programming can eliminate 90% of the redundancies in bureaucracies of the free world. Combined, this will be the largest money-saving seen worldwide, possibly declared a global holiday in the name of the better education of the children of tomorrow.

The transformative power of digitization and AI-centricity harnessed through advanced human-made software has the potential to revolutionize governance. It can strip naked governments and lingering bureaucracies, showcasing their daily progress and actual results on the global social media stage like a live show. Rapid and hyper-transformation, driven by technology, can also save and protect all the geniuses, great thinkers, and staff members often crushed inside the bureaucracies. It's not about replacing humans with robots but empowering them to thrive in a more efficient and streamlined environment.

Across Western economies, the four greatest errors of economic intellectualism of today:

One: Calling an SME small, like declaring a baby elephant small, proves a lack of zoology. Laughing at a caterpillar dreaming of flying proves not knowing metamorphosis.

Two: Failing to provide alternate options, a 'potion, magic lamp or AI' to create new SMEs but still not adjusting their mindsets to the fact that during last millennia, only entrepreneurial minds created SMEs around the world and therefore it should be the top agenda item on all national economic development affairs

Three: Silencing and not allowing detailed explanations on how and why 99% of frontline economic development teams from top to bottom ended up with only job-seeker mindsets, as it is globally visible on LinkedIn. With no SME creation or development experiences, what progress level is expected in the nation's largest economic sectors?

Four: Missing, ignoring, and not balancing with the entrepreneurial job-creator mindsets and failing to recognize SMEs as the only topsoil where gigantic global enterprises are born and raised.

It is imperative to remember why entrepreneurs do not become 'chief economists' as it is a different mindset. At the same time, chief economists do not start with lemonade stands and dream of creating something like the size of Coca-Cola for the same selection of mindsets.

If proof is requested: When over a million entrepreneurs have already created over a million original small and medium businesses, each of which has grown into creating over a million jobs, why is the lingering fear of identifying at least one Nobel Prize Winner in Economics, whoever built one such creation?

A decade in the making, this narrative is not a war but an open invitation to economic thinking to renegotiate the terms, rules, and proper definitions of economic progress, not the current chaotic rules of SME management and disconnected debt-based economies.

Even if all the above assertions are incorrect, they should not close the doors to open debates. Silence now indicates a fear of exposing levels of competencies. In search of immediate solutions, no matter what, the times call for action; the Expothon narratives are now opening new global debates. Urgency and action are paramount. Study more on Google.

For many years, Expothon Worldwide, a global initiative from this Canadian think tank, has been the trusted source of exclusive narratives on the 'national mobilization of entrepreneurialism protocols.' developed during the last decade. These insights, shared on a weekly basis, now reach some 2000 selected VIP recipients from the national cabinet-level government officials across 100 free economies.

This track record of expertise and trust is the foundation of our proposed strategies. The step-by-step application of well-defined and proven methodologies helped create a grand-scale national agenda of up-skilling exporters and re-skilling manufacturers and mobilizing high-potential SMEs of the nation.

Global Hub: Currently, Expothon is developing a global hub to provide large-scale senior-level guidance to selected 100 free economies and blocs like GCC, OIC, European Union, African Union, ASEAN Commonwealth, and BRICS. This initiative aims to enhance the 'National mobilization Entrepreneurship' by offering nation-specific, customized deployment solutions. The Global Hub, fully equipped and prepared, will deploy 1000 experts with global digital accessibility to guide some 50-100 countries on managing their national SME base, upskilling exporters, and re-skilling manufacturers.

The potential benefits to the selected economies and blocs are immense, including quadrupling productivity, performance, and profitability and becoming a power play on the 10K to 100K high-potential SMEs within any nation, a game changer with the massive global activity of micro-trade, micro-exports, and micro-manufacturing.

The Summary: Warnings & Action Plans:

Immediately applicable pragmatic solutions to uplift national economies: There are only two types of mindsets in global commerce. It takes a day to test and verify nationwide and to bring 100 to 1000 economic development teams to orient, adjust, and land on the same page for 100 days. There is only one topsoil where gigantic enterprises grow. Study deeply, as all bodies fostering the SME economy, like chambers, trade groups, and associations, must demonstrate their advanced skills in understanding entrepreneurial mysticism. It only takes a day to test, verify, and audit national economic development workforces from the top to frontlines. More on Google

Prepare for shocks, as the large-scale SME economy has three critical stages:

ONE: Create an ocean of SMEs, digitize, categorize, and globalize, and target micro-trade, micro-exports, and micro-manufacturing.

TWO: Advance to a Midsize SME Economy and prepare for a Global Export Economy.

THREE: Declare 'National Mobilization of Entrepreneurialism' as a national mandate, up-skill exporters and re-skill manufacturers, and bring all trade groups under one umbrella. Keep repeating, keep learning, and keep advancing.

Cabinet level briefings and national virtual meetings are a good start

The rest is easy
