More About The Workshop
In this two-hour session, we will:
• Consider how to use the insights of entrepreneurship to take our creative work to the next level.
• Consider myths about what it takes to think like an entrepreneur.
• Practise using empathy to uncover what our potential customers would really love.
• Consider the role of higher needs in the development of new ideas and products.
What characterises mastery of this skill?
Employees with high levels of entrepreneurship usually work with an open mindset. This enables them to actively spot and assess their customers’ and colleagues’ needs. Adept at finding new ideas to improve their business, they use introspection as a technique to evaluate the physical and emotional needs that can improve the overall customer experience.
What characterises a lack of this skill?
An employee with a lack of entrepreneurship often does not take the time or finds it difficult to ‘zoom out’ and reflect at a meta-level about products and services they offer. They often hold back from thinking or sharing new ideas, convinced that there cannot be anything new in a certain field.
