Learn how to lower the risk of Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship Through Acquisition for Executives, will give mid and late career professionals frameworks and real-world solutions to pursue the acquisition and leadership of a company. The class will walk through the life cycle of a typical path to finding and running a business, including information on financing, searching for an opportunity, closing, leading that business and then positioning it for sale. Approximately half of the course will go through critical points leading up to buying a business, while the other half will address some of the key issues executives face while running a company (identifying metrics, communicating with a team, interviewing, handling HR issues, etc.). The class will utilize cases, assignments and / or readings along with speakers who will give real life techniques that they use to excel in the particular area that the class is structured around. The class will be capped to allow for ample interaction and personal attention.
