Description

Explore how entrepreneurial thinking can dramatically improve your work, your life and your relationshipsHaving the drive, ambition and inspiration to start a new business takes a particular mindset - no wonder we regard successful entrepreneurs as modern-day magic-makers. But what if that spirit and drive were applied outside the world of business startups?An entrepreneur seeks to build something from nothing; to take an inspired idea and make it a reality. How to Think Like An Entrepreneur will explore what it takes to be a successful entrepreneur - the ability to disrupt the status quo, use design thinking to generate fresh perspectives, build resilience and leap forward from failure - and ultimately lead us to the heart of great entrepreneurial thinking; an understanding of our deepest human needs. By harnessing the passion, verve and blue-sky thinking of an entrepreneur, we'll consider how you can improve your business and also your life and relationships beyond.
