Align entrepreneurial business modelling with the organisation's workforce plan rather than treating it in isolation.
Building the Entrepreneurial Business Model and Initial Feasibility Analysis
Turn entrepreneurial business modelling from a stated policy into a practice your organisation can evidence.
Course Overview
The organisation's reputation as an employer is built or lost through entrepreneurial business modelling. Policy on the wider people management and development agenda is judged by how it is applied in the difficult cases, not the easy ones. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the people management and development capability under scrutiny. Across sectors, teams that rehearse entrepreneurial business modelling outperform teams that only plan it. The course gives participants a defensible structure for the wider people management and development agenda and the judgement to adapt it. Participants who influence this strand of people management and development without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Moving entrepreneurial business modelling from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. Cases are chosen to expose the trade-offs in the practice within people management and development rather than to illustrate ideal conditions. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of people management and development that each participant writes for their own organisation.
