5. Entrepreneurship Recognising, creating and acting on opportunities Applying creativity & innovation to problems Creating multiple forms of value Developing entrepreneurial mindset & identity Initiating and managing organisations Transforming social relationships & interactions A movement for individual, social and economic transformation

6. Learning can be Entrepreneurial Learning and acting in innovative, opportunistic ways Applied creativity: moving between ideas and activities: Recognising, creating and acting on opportunities Interactions for personal & social learning Imaginative use of technologies Creating multiple forms of value Initiating and managing new projects & organisations Outcome: self-efficacy to make innovative things happen

7. Get started with Micro-preneurship Micro-entrepreneurship can be used to experiment and gain basic skills, habits and confidence. Seize the moment – act on the opportunity. Connect the local and specific with the global and general. Be frugal: use free or low-cost resources. Collaborate and co-operate: social enterprise Feminine ways of working are at least as effective as masculine Practise ethical values and approaches as you’d expect to be treated Use iterative innovation – try it out to see if it works. Your story is who you are and what you can do, so use every experience to learn and develop your personal narrative.
