The
10 reasons for the Department was a very neat concept to rack our
brains and really show what our purpose of NPAAMB is. Also the
financial information was phenonemal. It was put in to the
simplest terms and really easy to understand. I also liked the 6
Hats concept and the diseaces of the mind will be good info to share
with others! Rolf was very enthusiastic. He had a lot of
energy and made the whole entrepreneurial concept easy to understand
and simple to reiterate to others. Thank you very much for giving
us this useful information. Not only will I apply this newly
learnt knowledge for NAAMB's entrepreneurship program but laso for my
own venture into business in the near future. Thank you and we
will definitly be in contact again. Amy Frank - Summer Student Entrepreneurship Coordinator - Niagara Peninsula Aboriginal Area Management Board
