MC Organization and teaming up

Uitgebreide vaknaam	Master Class Teaming up for opportunity creation
Leerdoelen	By the end of this course, students will be able to identify how their network both constrains and enables them in developing opportunities, and will be able to identify how to approach their network to enhance the opportunity creation process. More specifically, students will: ·Organize themselves in teams so they are capable to meet the requirements of such possibilities as they arise so that these become business opportunities ·Understand how exploiting business opportunities is the result of both deliberate efforts and attention to surprising possibilities that arise as a consequence of these efforts ·Develop their network so that their entrepreneurial efforts meet the interests of their larger context ·Experience firsthand the possibility of creating opportunities out of a seemingly unpromising situation, thereby understanding their own styles and available resources
Omschrijving	In this course, we will explore leadership in society by emulating the ways teams of entrepreneurs create opportunities by engaging with their surroundings. The assumption of this course is that opportunities emerge as entrepreneurs interact with people around them and prepare themselves for the possibility of exploiting opportunities as they emerge in this process. Finally, we look at how the exploitation of an opportunity can, in turn, trigger a new process of opportunity creation, and explore how different entrepreneurs navigate these possibilities. At the end of the course, one team will be selected for the “Falling Walls” Leadership Lab, an elite group that will work as a local student association for generating and showcasing entrepreneurial ideas. This is connected to an international endeavour that connects groundbreaking innovation ideas to investors and mentors.
