Issue 1: Jun 2013

Welcome to the Inaugural Edition!

This is already taking on a frightening direction of its own. It is therefore critical to name it appropriately and give it a sense of its own importance as well as a modicum of dignity (should this be considered absolutely necessary).  So instead of WCoMC News, how about: Worshipful Bulletin, Proclamation, Hue and Cry, Emission, Bugle, Clarion OR Company News Organ .....

Romance is truly alive and in the air

Fostered in the nurturing atmosphere of Worshipful Company circles [we cannot actually claim any of this] against a backdrop of Cape Town’s iconic Table mountain, the South Atlantic Ocean boiling below, Noorzaman and Kulbir were married in February.  See photo in the left hand column.  Our warmest congratulations!

 

Is the business press right in saying that WCoMC is one of the better kept industry secrets?

“The Worshipful Company of Management Consultants can help consultancy firms maximise the effectiveness - and professional benefits - of their philanthropic endeavours”  says Top-Consultant.com management consultancy columnist, Mick James

Hard Core mingling and shop talk... Introduce your business and current project...

Cel ...ebrate good times....c'mon!

For those who missed our Master's Blog article, catch up on his report from The Company Celebration dinner held in the magnificence of the Honourable Artillery Company quarters: 180 diners, National Youth Orchestra, Sea Cadets on guard.

Lyrical write-up by management consultancy columnist, Mick James, in Top-Consultant.com …… Put something back
