Entrepreneurial Essentials
A self contained online programme that teaches a Fast Strategy™ Methodology and lets users assess and improve their own business. It is designed to provide participants with the starting knowledge needed to launch or develop their business.
Programme Need
Aspiring entrepreneurs often rush into launching their business without fully thinking through a business plan. This leads to a high level of failure within the first 18 months. This programme offers an introduction to the knowledge and skills needed to launch a business.
The programme contains a framework and process to analyse their own business and spot gaps for improvement. Entrepreneurship Essentials was designed to help fill knowledge and skill gaps for entrepreneurs.
