When we come to value principles, we can create unstoppable momentum in our lives. This begins when we accept that we must balance our production with our production capacity, what Stephen Covey calls the P/PC balance and this requires taking stock of where we are in key areas of our life: spiritual, intellectual, financial, relational, vocational, physical. When we determine where we are in these areas and contrast it to where we want to be, it will lead to a clear plan that we can them implement alongside these three principles:
1) comfort and growth cannot co-exist
2) vision is essential
3) sharpen the saw (another Covey principle)

Creativity in the Business Space : The Power of Entrepreneurship Education with Charleigh Wright 38:14

hace 15 días38:14

When you bring a creative, artistic person and put them into a business setting, things don't always work out. But if that business setting is a space where the entrepreneurial mindset flourishes, good things are bound to happen: you will be forced out of your comfort zone, you'll be drawn into real-world problem solving, and you'll encounter ongoing critique and feedback on your way to develop empathy and a growth mindset. Charleigh Wright, 2024 graduate from Cincinnati Hills Christian Academy, exemplifies the entrepreneurial mindset in all that she does--she explains, in this podcast, how failure is a maze and how leadership, team building, and goal setting contributed to her overall success both in high school and now in college.…

What if We Are All Called to be Entrepreneurs? Embracing a New Definition 18:45

hace 21 días18:45

18:45

The word "entrepreneur" is not just hard to spell--it is loaded with meanings both literal and suggested, to the point that we need clarity around what the term actual means and represents. In this episode, we explore Jordan Raynor's definition from his book, Called to Create, where he explains that an entrepreneur is "anyone who takes a risk to create something new for the good of others." In this sense, he has three primary components: 1) Takes a risk 2) Creates something new 3) Serves others When we consider this three-fold definition, it becomes clear that we are all actually entrepreneurs in how we think about and interact with the world.…

Go Out and Sell Something: A Powerful Opportunity for Our Students 13:19

hace 27 días13:19

13:19

As part of the foundations of entrepreneurship program as we work to instill the entrepreneurial mindset in our students, we give them a project where they go out and sell something. And the real kicker is it has to be to someone they do not already know. This involves identifying a product or service and cutting to the heart of the TRUE value and creating a UVP or Unique Value Proposition. The true power comes as students identify the WHY behind what they are selling and it adds power to the entire experience. In the end, teaching the entrepreneurial mindset is about arming our students with real-world skills that will set them up for success in every area of life.…

Is It Really Collaboration or Is It Just Cooperation? 12:31

hace 7 weeks12:31

Understanding the true difference between cooperation and collaboration is key to getting to the heart of the transformative power of working together toward a shared goal. When we embrace true collaboration, we bring about critical thinking, adaptability, and innovation--skills that are essential for an entrepreneurial mindset. Cooperation is often about individuals working side by side, independently, toward a shared goal, while collaboration is about individuals or groups working together in a deeply integrated way, co-creating solutions. Let's move FROM cooperation TO collaboration!…

The Ideal Environment for Entrepreneurial Flourishing 10:17

We wouldn't plant seeds in a garden without ensuring the proper nutrients, water, and sun, so why would we attempt to plant the seeds of the entrepreneurial mindset in our students (and ourselves) without first ensuring we have the three necessary components? We need to make sure that we have proper FREEDOM, AUTONOMY, and RESOURCES (but not to much of any of these) in order to bring about true flourishing for the entrepreneurial mindset.…

Conducting a Failure Audit: Four Key Questions for Growth 14:14

hace 11 weeks14:14

14:14

When we take the time to really dig into "failure" we discover that it really isn't failure at all--if anything, it's a key to unlock greater learning and exponential impact. The best tool to do this is a failure audit. In this podcast, I walk through the three primary components of a failure audit to bring about the biggest impact in our lives and those around us. Key takeaways include the four questions for a failure audit: 1. What happened? 2. Why did it happen? 3. What did you learn? 4. What will you do differently next time? Failure audits begin with examining a failure we have experienced ourselves, and then move to key interviews with other people, before resulting in patterns and insights. Redefining failure is one of the key steps in increasing our entrepreneurial mindset.…

We Must Redefine Failure: Moving from Perfection to Progress 21:22

hace 12 weeks21:22

21:22

In this episode of the Entrepreneurial Mindset for Transformative Education podcast, Stephen Carter discusses the transformative power of redefining failure and its essential role in growth and education. He emphasizes that failure should not be viewed negatively, but rather as a necessary component of learning and improvement. By adopting a growth mindset and embracing the concept of continuous improvement, individuals can foster resilience and progress. Carter also explores practical strategies for rethinking assessments and feedback in educational settings, ultimately advocating for a shift in mindset that prioritizes action and reflection over perfection. Key Takeaways Failure has been identified as something bad, something to avoid. Failure is an element necessary for growth. Comfort and growth can't coexist. True failure is if we never tried in the first place. The entrepreneurial mindset can be taught. Failure is necessary for learning and growing. Continuous improvement means we're never going to fully arrive. Redefining failure means moving away from perfection as the goal. Wisdom comes from evaluated experience, not just experience. Using growth mindset language creates a culture for redefining failure.…

Entrepreneurship is often seen as a solo endeavor, but true success often hinges on collaboration. In this episode, we explore why teamwork and synergy are essential entrepreneurial skills, challenging the myth of the "lone wolf" entrepreneur.

We also connect these lessons to schools, showcasing practical ways educators can teach collaboration through project-based learning, student-run businesses, and more.
