preliminary program

• Session 1: Find ideas and get them out 
  
  Together, we will get familiar with various methods for generating ideas, taking into account the  current social and economic context. We will play a game that considers  both our individual interests and e.g. the needs in the city.
  
• Session 2: How transformative is your idea?
  
  Opening a jewelry studio or leading a mobility company, the range of existing businesses is broad. In any case, understanding the impact of your business activity is crucial. In this session we take the generated ideas and try to understand what they mean in a new planetary era.
  
• Session 3: What do you really need to make it work?
  
  Is there a formula for building a business or starting a project? We will have a look into different business models, examine which ones require significant capital and which don’t and discuss why breaking the cycle of dominance in both business and life is essential. 
  
• Session 4: Making the first step
  
  Why do some people start up and others not? What could be a strategy to start? Is it a specific routine or just the right point in time? Risk-taking is the usual buzz word. But how about you make a quick plan and take the first step today.
  
• Session 5: Evaluation of the first step
  
  In this workshop we’ll discuss  the first step(s) you’ve taken and explore  ways to turn those actions into lasting habits  as well as identify the common obstacles that usually block our  progress.
