Yesterday I attended another excellent event run by the SEEDA funded Higher Education Entrepreneurship Group. This particular event was at the University of Surrey in Guildford and was a conference entitled “Does It Really Make a Difference? Evaluating the Impact of Enterprise and Entrepreneurship Education”. Not the catchiest of titles, but I was really pleased to meet the brilliant Professor Mark Hart of Aston University. Mark presented his latest research for Enterprise UK, which clustered students into 6 groups, according to their enterprising beliefs and behaviours. The groups were: self starters, hesitant creatives, freedom seekers, inventors, determined novices and reluctant novices. Which type are you?
