Explore the fundamentals of entrepreneurship and the behaviour and skills required to 'think out of the box' to identify and pursue opportunities. We’ll establish what the behaviours and skills are of an entrepreneur, define creativity and innovation, as well as ask why they are so important to entrepreneurs. We will explore idea generation and evaluation techniques and learn how to recognise enterprise opportunities. With case studies of entrepreneurs, self-assessment models, peer assessment exercises and group and individual project work focusing on entrepreneurial skills and behaviours, the module will introduce relevant entrepreneurial management concepts and theories, as well as give participants an opportunity to realise their own entrepreneurial potential.
