Learninng the Business of Horses

“Learning faster than your competitors is the only sustainable competitive advantage in an environment of rapid change and innovation” – Arie De Geus

I jumped into a new job last week.  Well, I didn’t exactly jump. I contemplated a
job for many months; filling out the required information on applications,
writing and rewriting resumes, and interviewing with prospective employers. One
thing about it all, I talked with folks who were dedicated and knowledgeable.

To minimize a potentially long story, I met Natalie and “The Rocky Mountain Rider Magazine.” I fell in love with the idea of working and learning about the business of horses.  Needless to say, I am working for Natalie and my learning curve has trudged uphill for more than two weeks. I feel confident that the learning curve will continue for the full length of my employment. I look forward to it.

For the next few weeks, I will explore the equine law and economy.
Everything I know or don’t know will be flagrantly on display for any curious reader.

With the economic crisis effecting businesses of the world, it’s easy to get discouraged. Equine hobbyists and specialists have already cut back expenses, diversified income, and creatively rearranged lives to keep the horse businesses afloat.

This is where I begin, sharing my research and my thoughts.
