3Pilot your purpose

A slide titled "Pilot Your Purpose" with instructions to read before proceeding. It defines entrepreneurship as helping yourself by helping others. A Venn diagram shows Passion at the intersection of Interests, Skills, and Impact, placing Purpose at the center

One of the most popular exercises in entrepreneurship education, this exercise makes classes relevant for every student. Many students don’t picture themselves becoming entrepreneurs.

What’s unique about this exercise is it is a way for every student to work through their skills, interests and desired impact. This path leads them to identify their purpose, so they can apply the rest of the course to something meaningful to them.


Don’t Reinvent the Wheel

The new syllabus above is a great entrepreneurship outline, but if you want 30+ engaging, interactive lesson plans, slide decks, rubrics, LMS integration, and everything else you need to create an engaging class, check out the Experiential Entrepreneurship Curriculum (ExEC):
