Thrive in a Tribe update

Dr. Monica Knight is leading business educators beyond the myth that entrepreneurs are born, not made. She says that,

“There is nothing magical about the entrepreneurial mystique; it is not mysterious, and it has nothing to do with the genes. It is a discipline and, like any discipline, it can be learned. And creative and innovative entrepreneurial thinking can be applied to any situation throughout the spectrum of life.”

A dedicated practitioner of entrepreneurship education, Dr. Knight blends knowledge, skills, and attitudes in an inspiring shift to learning in a workshop environment. 

Monica is facilitating the 3 day Thrive in a Tribe Train-the -Facilitator workshop* from May 22-24, 2018 with Regina Treaty/Status Indian Services (RTSIS) in Saskatchewan.

This FUN and INSPIRING workshop does much to nurture an enterprise culture in yourself, your organization or your community. More details are available here.

 

*THRIVE IN A TRIBE  is Module 10 in a series of 12 modules presented by DRAGON 9 Training.
