ENTREPRENEURIAL PARADIGM PROGRAM FOR RURAL BANKS |
|
Unlocking Entrepreneurship Skills of Bank Directors and Officers
Rationale “Without entrepreneurs, there can be no development.” So said Dr. David McClelland, the Harvard professor and researcher on entrepreneurship. Even if a company or country has all the necessary resources for growth and development - manpower, capital, materials, assets - but if there is no one with the entrepreneurial acumen, there will still be no innovation, no enthusiastic business strategy, and no actual venturing into new fields of profitable business endeavors. This is because it is the entrepreneurial person who has the paradigm to identify opportunities, take risks and build enterprises. The good news is that the entrepreneurship paradigm can be developed through the experiential or "learning by doing method". The competencies of opportunity seeking, goal setting, networking, persistence and others are trainable skills. This training program for rural bankers seeks to provide the participants with meaningful, exciting, realistic experiences to discover their latent entrepreneurial qualities, generate innovative business ideas, projects, products and services, select the most appropriate business project as well as develop the n-ach (need for achievement) drive needed to sustain enterprising behaviors. Specific Objectives By the end of this two-day training program, the participants will be able to: 1. Analyze the unique motivation and drive of entrepreneurial bankers and their employees. 2.
