BEFORE YOU START:
a) Watch Did You Know?
b) What is Entrepreneurship?
c) What is Intrapreneurship? Search for a definition online and check out examples of Intrapreneurship.
e) Complete this form and see if you are suited to be an entrepreneur with the skills you currently have. Don't worry if you score low. Many of us do not have the skills needed to run our own businesses at a young age. Skills can be developed with time. Not everyone is suited to own their own business which is perfectly fine too. Many of the skills needed to run your own business are also skills that employers look for when hiring. For example, being a self-starter, good work ethic, being able to work independently, and getting along well with others. Make a copy of this handout first before you complete it. Save it in our course folder BDI3C.
