- using enterprise skills and values to enhance an approach to research
- developing and handling effective relationships with stakeholders
- opportunity identification
- idea generation
- creative problem-solving

- selling your concept to others
Enterprising people are equipped to fulfil their potential and to create their own futures. During the workshop you will be given opportunities to develop or enhance your range of skills, through practice and application, and will be encouraged to unleash your inner entrepreneur!
