Part 2: Entrepreneurship workshop at local high school

On Nov. 2o, I visited the senior class again at Carver HS of Engineering & Science. The teacher and I are helping to shape their senior projects. Their project does not need to be a business but I am using entrepreneurial principles to help them think through their ideas.

This morning, 4 questions were placed in front of them:

1. What is your idea?

2. Who is the target group you want to reach with your idea?

3. How can you convince this target market that your idea works and is sustainable?

4. After convincing your target group, how can you draw others into your idea?

At this point, the teacher will help them hone their ideas. I am part of the team that will critique their ideas. Once this process is completed, I will return in 3 weeks and do some creative brainstorming sessions to help them go further. Fun stuff!:)
