Faculty for the Building an Entrepreneurship Education Ecosystem program have deep expertise in building and growing robust entrepreneurship education ecosystems, all backed by Babson’s 28-year track record as the No. 1 College for entrepreneurship education in the United States.
Candida Brush served as Babson’s Entrepreneurship Division chair for a decade before eventually becoming vice provost. In that role, she oversaw five of Babson’s academic centers, each focusing on different aspects of entrepreneurship, from family businesses to social enterprises.
Patti Greene explains how teaching an entrepreneurship method rather than a process is the best way to combat unpredictability. There are four complementary techniques for teaching entrepreneurship as a method and each requires students to reach beyond their prediction-focused ways of knowing, analyzing, and talking.
According to Professor Candida Brush’s Global Entrepreneurship Monitor report, “the research highlights areas where women entrepreneurs have made significant progress, how ecosystems influence and are influenced by women entrepreneurs, and where there are still gaps, challenges, and opportunities.”
