GSM 601 Entrepreneurship: Buisness Plans &_Proposals
This course is the nuts and bolts of thinking through, testing, presenting, and re-formulating an active, creative plan for launching your own venture, whether that be a new business, social enterprise, or a substantial venture in an existing organization (for-profit, non-profit, government). Students will use and add to their knowledge of finance, marketing, operations, and strategy to craft a plan that will meet the demands of investors, employers, and other significant stakeholders. They will also refine their skill in presenting a business idea in short (30 second), mid (2-3 minute) and long (12 minute) form as they explore their passion, voice and ambition to build a new venture with impact! While Business Plans and Proposals is the second course of the Certificate in Entrepreneurship sequence, it is also a general MBA elective and all MBA students and alumna are welcome to participate.
