1. Reading through all of my posts from the semester brought back a lot of memories of the course, specifically what my life was like at each point in time when I was completing the assignments. It is exciting to see how far we've come this semester and crazy to think about how much things have changed.
2. I would say the most formative experience was simply having the opportunity to develop an entrepreneurial idea from conception and go through so many stages in the process of what any successful entrepreneur would do to bring their idea to life. I will remember doing my elevator pitches and getting better at presenting an idea. I am proud of myself for reading the three books that I did and learning from them as I had been slacking in doing reading recently.
3. While I don't see myself as an entrepreneur per se as I haven't had any technical experience with bringing an idea to life, I do believe this class has definitely helped to grow my entrepreneurial mindset so that when the time comes for me to actually put entrepreneurial skills to work I will be able to do so.
4. I would recommend to future students taking this class that they keep a very open mind and be open to new ideas throughout the entire duration of the course. Entrepreneurs need to be able to see things in a different way from other people and practicing that in everyday life will help to foster those skills. In order to perform well in this course I recommend that they stay on top of all assignments so they never accidentally forget an assignment due to poor planning like myself.
Francis,
ReplyDeleteGreat reflection. I agree that it was a very formative experience having to go through the steps of creating a business, whether it be giving the initial elevator pitch to figuring out how my business was going to be run.
