Introduction to the mindset and entrepreneurship


Ideation techniques
Building effective teams
Market, industry, and competitive assessment
Defining your value proposition
Business model development
Building your brand
The importance of capital efficiency
Harnessing resources through financing
Customer acquisition

When we teach entrepreneurship, the emphasis is on developing skills, not starting businesses. Of
course we support and encourage those students who are passionate about launching the next
Facebook, and there are many resources at MSU to help them. Rather the goal is about developing
the inter-disciplinary skills that lead to the development of an entrepreneurial mindset.

The Network for Teaching Entrepreneurship defines the entrepreneurial mindset as the set of
attitudes, skills and behaviors that students need to succeed academically, personally and
professionally. These include: initiative and self-direction, risk-taking, flexibility and adaptability,
creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem solving. Other definitions include the ability to
see opportunities, marshal resources and create value.

flexibility and adaptability, creativity and innovation, critical thinking and problem
solving. Other definitions include the ability to see opportunities, marshal resources
and create value.

To me the term embodies a set of cross-functional life and professional skills that describe someone
who is innovative, resourceful and creates value. The entrepreneurial mindset can be applied in many
contexts. It applies to employees in large, hierarchical entities, and it applies to community organizers,
academics, inventors, doctors, lawyers, politicians, musicians and public servants. In no way is it
unique to startup companies, and the skills that are developed are relevant to everyone.

Our premise is that learning the entrepreneurial mindset is a critically valuable 21st century skill.
Those who learn it well will have outsized success in their careers no matter what they choose to
do because by definition they become resourceful and adaptable.

Entrepreneurism must be practiced to be learned. It is experiential. Just as you cant learn to swim at
the library, you cant learn what entrepreneurship is about unless you have experienced it. We are
putting programs in place now to add an experiential dimension to our entrepreneurship and
innovation curriculum.

And for those students who aspire to start their own business, there is no better time to do it than
while they are in college since the cost of doing so goes up an order of magnitude the minute they
lose their full-time student status. On campus students have access to facilities (like our ideation
center, The Hive), an incubator (The Hatch), mentors, support and funding.

When one talks to young alumni who have started businesses, as I have done a lot, you consistently
hear that even if their business failed, they wouldnt trade the experience for anything. Theres nothing
quite like the personal growth that comes from building a business or pursuing ones passion (which
could be to make a movie, produce music, start a news site or launch a new mobile app). I learned
the same thing with my barbecue sauce business. Even though the business never flourished, I
learned enough so that my next company, which made synthetic diamond, was able to raise more
than $18 million from public and private sources. And young alumni tell me similar versions of this
story over and over.

Building a business is hard and most fail. But thats not the point. The point is that in the trying,
students develop skills that pay handsome dividends long into their careers decades in my case.
The justification is in the experience, not in the outcome.
