Entrepreneurship:
The essential skill to either advance your career or to create a new one!
Accelerating change driven by technology and immediate global communication has redefined the meaning of innovation and how we design new ventures (Entrepreneurship), as well as how we refresh and reinvigorate existing ones (Intrapreneurship).
An entrepreneurial mindset is essential to creating new ventures and advancing and refreshing existing ventures.
