Entrepreneurial Mindset

Service Description

Small businesses have become the engines driving our economy, with new businesses accounting for nearly all net new job creation. Yet the concept of entrepreneurship is not well understood, and many lack the necessary mindset and the skills that will enable them to succeed. The Ice House Entrepreneurship Program (Small Business Edition) is designed to inspire and engage participants in the fundamental aspects of entrepreneurial thinking while immersing them in the process that will enable them to develop entrepreneurial skills. The Ice House Entrepreneurship Program (Small Business Edition) is an experiential, problem-based learning program designed to expose participants to the fundamental aspects of an entrepreneurial mindset and the limitless opportunities it can provide. Inspired by the life story of Pulitzer nominee Clifton Taulbert in the companion text, Who Owns the Ice House? Eight Life Lessons from an Unlikely Entrepreneur, the program combines more than ten years of research with the firsthand experience drawn from a wide variety of successful “unlikely” entrepreneurs. Drawing on eight fundamental concepts, the course exposes participants to the underlying thought and process that enables entrepreneurs with limited resources to identify, evaluate, and transform new ideas into successful endeavors. Each lesson contains video case studies featuring a variety of “unlikely” entrepreneurs who share their knowledge and experience, thus reinforcing the practical application of the core concepts. Participants are then immersed in real-world entrepreneurial experiences that enable them to develop and hone entrepreneurial attitudes and skills. Upon completion of the Ice House, students will be able to: -Understand and experience the process that enables entrepreneurs with limited resources to identify, evaluate, and transform a simple idea into a sustainable success -Develop and hone entrepreneurial attitudes, behaviors, and skills -Identify and overcome the self-limiting beliefs that may keep them tethered to ineffective ways of thinking and acting -Identify and interact with local entrepreneurs who can provide critical guidance and ongoing support
