Youth today are excited by the prospect of self-employment and self-determination; one third of new entrepreneurs are younger than 30 and more than 60% aged 18–29 desire to own their own businesses. With these explosive numbers comes a similar interest in the field of and demand for entrepreneurship education at the K-12 level.
This book supports teachers in the classroom as they introduce entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship (cooperation and interdependence). Thrive in a Hive explores the case for experiential learning and includes a series of fun and inspiring exercises designed to nurture an enterprise culture in your students, your organization, your community, and yourself.
The exercises are designed to form an effective blend of both the science (business and management competencies) and the art (creative and innovative thinking) of entrepreneurship / intrapreneurship.
