Entrepreneurial Mindset Interim

Entrepreneurial thinking has less to do with starting your own business and more to do with igniting the mind through learning and development. We explore attitudes and behaviors that encapsulate how entrepreneurs tend to think and act and identify ways to make the most of opportunities, overcome and learn from setbacks, and succeed in a variety of settings.  

Students will delve into the mysteries of experience and powerful moments, visit and closely observe local small businesses and startups, and have direct access to gain insightful expertise from a Wofford alumnus entrepreneur in residence. Ultimately, students will cultivate the characteristics of an entrepreneur, whether looking to start a new venture or distinguish themselves as an intrapreneur within an organization.
