Why
Entrepreneurship
ConfidentLee’s mission is to instill confidence in a child. Teaching them to have an entrepreneurial spirit encourages children to become tomorrow’s leaders and innovators. Learning how to develop ideas to open a business of their own teaches a child creativity and the ability to think outside the box.
As each child explores business ideas that work for them their self-esteem improves. The process of making this business viable instills critical thinking and problem solving skills. Working in groups demonstrates to the children that it is equally important to be a team player as it is to be a leader.
Financial literacy and best practices for money handling can have a positive lifelong impact on the students. Trying to sell their product or service will instill good communication and social skills. They will learn to think on their feet and the importance of being persuasive yet pleasant.
Understanding how to grow the business and create a business plan will teach them the importance of planning, resilience and grit. Being socially responsible and contributing to society encourages children to become future community leaders. Understanding that not all children will become business owners, the skills of entrepreneurship will help them develop a vision for themselves and give them the tools to create a plan to achieve their goals.
