Filling the Rapidly Growing Need for Entrepreneurial Leaders
Leadership Capabilities as a Source of
Sustainable Competitive Advantage.
In today’s rapidly changing
innovation-driven world, sustainable
competitive advantage of a firm
is defined not by their reproducible capabilities such as finance,
technologies or explicit knowledge, but by their
distinctive
difficult-to-reproduce capabilities, such as entrepreneurial
leadership, teamwork and tacit knowledge.
Venture Strategies as a Key Source of Top-line Growth
Durable corporate
venture strategies
include internal investment in innovation, new product/service
development, and in-company ventures, new business creation though
spinouts, and external venture investing in new technologies and
emerging markets. The most successful companies are those that have
developed aggressive venture strategies and have made ventures
critical components of their strategic and operating success. For
today's corporations, traditional internal expansions, efficiency
improvements and "synergistic" acquisitions are no longer sufficient
sources of growth in most industry segments that had grown crowded
and hypercompetitive. The new challenge is to search for emerging
"white space" opportunities, new-business creations that would meet
the unmet, unserved needs of customers in emerging markets.
Growing
Need for Entrepreneurial Leaders.
New
ventures and
radical innovation projects are characterized by high level of
uncertainties related to technology, market, organization, and resources.
Management of new ventures and radical innovation projects requires a lot of
experimentation, adaptation,
entrepreneurial creativity and
entrepreneurial
leadership arts and skills. It is fundamentally different from managing
business operations and incremental innovation projects. As
corporate
venturing is expanding rapidly, the need entrepreneurial leaders
for managing new ventures will grow at the same speed.
Innovative Sandwich Event: Training – Practice – Training
“I
hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.”

Confucius
Before training: Trainees are given an outside-the-box
product idea and are requested to draft venture strategies and a
business model

Venture Management,

Training
With a Difference
Traditionally, the end of a training course is the end of the guidance
by the trainer.
Our Ten3 courses are different!
The end of
our training course is just the beginning of our guidance and your exciting journey.
Better learning
Trainees are more receptive to new knowledge and ideas during the
training as they've applied their mind to the subject while preparing the draft
venture plans before training and know that they must improve relevant chapters
of these plans after each training session.
Better understanding
“I
hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand,”
said
Confucius. The best kind of quality oriented learning is
just-in-time-style learning,
that is, learning that happens on the job and knowledge which is applied
immediately as needed. The sooner you can apply the material you learned, the
better you will understand it and the longer it will be retained. We achieve
this by asking trainees improve relevant sections of their venture plans and
business models after each training session.
Better Outside-the-box Thinking
Thinking outside the box is a vital skill of a venture leader in
today's complex and rapidly changing world.
Trainees are encouraged to challenge assumptions and stretch their imagination
while preparing venture strategies and business models for outside-the-box new
product ideas before and during the event.
Winning innovative solutions are
further inspired in the process of cross-pollination of ideas
during the last session of the training course.
Better implementation
The training provides the necessary bridge between
Strategizing to Design and Implementation.
Trainees will gain a better understanding of the total competitive arena and
learn to anticipate competitive developments and moves.
Building "prepared minds" is
necessary to make sure that decision makers have a solid understanding of the
venture, its strategy, and the assumptions behind that strategy to be able to respond swiftly to
challenges and opportunities as they occur in real time.
Post-training support
The
participants will be given a CD with the latest version of Ten3 Business
e-Coach,
your 360º achievement catalyst,
and Ten3 SMART screen savers that will provide them with continuous 24/7
inspirational e-coaching. |

Training without forgetting
The problem with conventional training.
Research shows:
-
By Day 2, we forget 50% of what
we've learned
-
By Day 30, we retain 2%-3% of
the original knowledge and need to be re-trained.
What a waste of our precious
resources!
