Enterprise Essentials
Open to students from all colleges
What’s the difference between people who turn their ideas into something real and those who don’t?
It’s easy to assume that some people are simply born with the confidence, creativity or drive to make things happen. But the reality is that these behaviours are learnable, and the chances are, you already use many of them.
In this hands-on two-hour workshop, you’ll uncover the behaviours that help people turn thinking into action, and explore how you can strengthen them yourself.
You’ll then learn the first practical steps for turning something you’re thinking about into something real, from understanding the problem to testing your assumptions and deciding what to do next.
Whether it’s a startup, a social enterprise or something else entirely, you’ll learn how to start building something that didn’t exist before you decided to make it happen.
