  • Planning for Age-Friendly Cities: Towards a New Model
    Planning For Age-Friendly Cities: Towards a New Model by John A. Colangeli A thesis presented to the University of Waterloo in fulfillment of the thesis requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Planning Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, 2010 John A. Colangeli 2010 I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this thesis. This is a true copy of the thesis, including any required final revisions, as accepted by my examiners. I understand that my thesis may be made electronically available to the public. John Angelo Colangeli ii Abstract This dissertation examines the potential for professional/community planning to respond pro- actively and strategically to the impending demographic changes which will be brought about by the aging of the baby boom generation. This multi-phased investigation was designed to explore whether professional planning could uncover models and concepts which can be used to make cities and communities more age-friendly. Several conclusions can be drawn from the study. It was found that planners are not ready for demographic change nor are they prepared for helping create age-friendly cities. This is due to several reasons, including a lack of resources forcing them to concentrate on short-term, immediate issues; lack of power and credibility; and a perception that the elderly are a lower priority in society. For planners to become proactive and strategic in planning for age-friendly cities, they will need to re-examine their tendency to focus mainly on land use planning; focus on the long-term agenda; establish credibility with politicians; develop visionary skills; and become educators and facilitators, engaging key stakeholders and community groups.

  • Press Release Contains "Forward-Looking Statements"
    Tuesday, August 18, 2020 ZoomerMedia Limited Announces Close of Sale of Assets of Darwin CX Inc. (Toronto, Canada – August 18, 2020) Further to its media release dated May 18, 2020, ZoomerMedia Limited (“ZoomerMedia”) (TSXV: ZUM) is pleased to announce that it has closed the agreement (“Purchase Agreement”) for the sale of substantially all of the assets (“Darwin Assets”) of ZoomerMedia’s wholly-owned subsidiary Darwin CX Inc. (“Darwin”), ZoomerMedia’s proprietary subscription and membership management platform, to New York–based Irish Studio LLC (“Irish Studio”). The purchase price was $7,465,000 (CAD), consisting of $700,000 (CAD) received concurrently on signing of the Purchase Agreement, and $5,386,000 (CAD) in cash and a $1,280,000 promissory note of Irish Studio, subject to customary post-closing adjustments, which were received by ZoomerMedia on the closing date. “ZoomerMedia committed significant resources to creating Darwin in a space that hasn’t seen innovation in decades, so it’s not surprising that it developed into a competitive software platform in a short period of time. Darwin naturally complements Irish Studio's core business and they are better positioned to invest the additional resources necessary for long-term growth. The sale price is in line with our expectations, fetches good value for ZML shareholders, strengthens ZML's financial position, and allows us to focus our energy on growing our core media businesses focused on Canada’s 45plus demographic,” said ZoomerMedia Founder and CEO Moses Znaimer. The Special Relationship between ZoomerMedia and Darwin will not end with the sale. ZoomerMedia Chief Digital Officer and Darwin co-founder Omri Tintpulver will sit on Darwin’s Advisory Board, and the company’s operations will continue to be based at ZoomerMedia’s headquarters in Toronto’s Liberty Village for now.

    Moldoveanu and Martin: Designing the Thinker of the Future page 1 Designing the Thinker of the Future: An Educational Opportunity in Post-Modern High-Capitalism Mihnea Moldoveanu Associate Professor and Director, Marcel Desautels Centre for Integrative Thinking Rotman School of Management University of Toronto Roger Martin Dean and Professor of Strategic Management Rotman School of Management University of Toronto Abstract We argue that contemporary approaches to developing MBA’s face a fundamental challenge arising from (a) a crisis of legitimation of conventional knowledge and authority associated with ‘normal science’-based expertise, (b) a quickly growing dependence of successful managerial action on recognizing and resolving tensions and conflicts among alternative and radically different views of the world and (c) a renewed importance of turning useful knowledge into intelligent action in the face of uncertainty, ambiguity, anomie and moral ambivalence. We describe an approach to managerial skill development based on the recognition of a new and disruptive opportunity in the market for managers: the growing need for the high-value decision maker who successfully manages interactions across multiple, potentially incommensurable conceptual, epistemological and behavioral domains. We propose to address this opportunity via the integrative development of cognitive-behavioral modules that are both useful and important to successful management in post-modern high capitalism and that can be developed from the resource base of existing MBA faculty and on the background of existing communities of practice in business academia. 2 1. Post-Modern High Capitalism: The ‘Interactions revolution’, Tacit Skills, the ‘Ingenuity Gap’ and the New Educational Opportunity Set. Future-looking analyses of the MBA face the difficult task of attempting to do what markets for MBA-educated managerial talent do not easily do.
