The Power of an Entrepreneurial Mindset | Bill Roche | TEDxLangleyED

When we help youth to develop an entrepreneurial mindset, we empower them to be successful in our rapidly changing world. Whether they own a business or work for someone else, young adults need the skills and confidence to identify opportunities, solve problems and sell their ideas. This skillset can be encouraged and developed in elementary schools, with the immediate benefit of increased success in school.
In this talk, Bill Roche shares stories of students that have created their own real business ventures with PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs. He illustrates the power of enabling students to take charge of their learning with freedom to make mistakes, and challenging them to actively develop entrepreneurial skills. Bill also showcases the achievements of specific students and shares how a transformative experience for one student has been a source of inspiration for him over the years. Bill Roche specializes in designing curriculum-based resource packages related to entrepreneurship, financial literacy and social responsibility. Bill worked directly in Langley classrooms for over ten years and now supports teachers throughout the country in creating real-world learning experiences for their students. Over 40,000 students have participated in his PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs program. The program’s impact has been captured in a documentary scheduled for release early in 2018. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

The school system definitely doesn’t teach entrepreneurship. It teaches kids to be afraid of failure. Schools should encourage kids to try and fail then try again. It’s basically what allowed me to build a business, retire by 40 and spend time helping others.

Entrepreneurship from young age is the best as they can become dynamic leaders in future. We don't need managers who run their companies using old school, but a new way, a responsible way understanding the scarcity of resources and not creative ideas. It is good for all kids to try their ideas on own to learn skills by hand. It is heartening to change the ways world works.

Love this! The way schools are set up can make it hard to be creative. They're usually pretty strict and don't leave much space for trying new things or being creative.

Currently, i am doing a project similar to the Bill's but it is to assess their oral skills. I agree with Bill as that is what i notice in my children . They are very creative whereby their products are what we need. They are able to see the pitfalls in others creations. I would like to seek permission from Bill to try out his research here.

School puts everyone in a box on a conveyer belt and are told ‘to get good grades or your a failure’ then get into a good uni, then a secure job and follow the follower until you can just about retire (if your lucky enough) at 65+. There’s so much more to life than that and what you just said is exactly what I am talking about. I am only just getting started with my entrepreneurial journey but I love it and its an incredible feeling when you build a successful business, the pride and happiness is unmatched and no job or career can give you that feeling!

[@delldela6154]

Entrepreneurship = problem solving. Mindset= your attitude plus motivation towards solving a problem. Solving a problem requires being curious and creative. Entrepreneurship is creating something new that's never been done before that helps the world become a better place for all of us to live in. Gathering data from what has been done before through research such as Google is a great way to start going at the idea you have in mind for a current problem you're trying to solve. You might assume the idea you have is great and it's the next big solution to the problem, however ; learning from previous solutions that have been attempted to solve the problem you're thinking about might be of great help in terms of saving valuable time and possibly saving money for funding your great idea. More so, going out into the real world and sharing your solution or some of the hypotheses you have gathered with real people to validate your idea and to criticize it if necessary so you can think more deeply about your solution and in result build even a greater solution that is more accurate, helps create value and genuinely better people's lives without forcing the idea or wasting your valuable time as an entrepreneur.
