In a situation of reintegration, reorientation or ‘between jobs’, more and more people are coming to the realisation that self-employment actually suits their personality, talents, competences, interests and motives best. In order to facilitate this group of people in taking control of their employability, we offer a contemporary, practice-oriented training course entitled ‘Entrepreneurship’.
Unique to the multi-day training course ‘Entrepreneurship’ is its connection to the current spirit of the age. Practice-oriented education in essential entrepreneurial knowledge and skills is combined with the widely felt need for ‘work that matters’ and the awareness of the importance of health in all our actions. More traditional basic subjects such as strategy, sales and account management, marketing and financial management are reinforced with contemporary modules such as personal leadership and social health entrepreneurship. Effective personal leadership is about acquiring a sharp, integrated picture of the question ‘who am I, what do I want, what can I do’ and the scientifically substantiated importance of mindfulness and compassionate action. In the Social Health Entrepreneurship module, students learn to view their entrepreneurial activities from the perspective of health value, social impact and sustainable circular thinking. Because of the link with their own practice, upon completion of the programme students will be able to successfully start working as independent entrepreneurs with a solid business plan and new skills.
