Entrepreneurship Program Founder Wins NC Board of Governors Teaching Award-Highest Teaching Award At UNCG!
Why Everyone Needs to be an Entrepreneur?
Are you Competitive by nature? Do you have what it takes to be your boss? Do you think out of the box?
If yes, then Entrepreneurship is the right choice for you. Entrepreneurship is a lifestyle for those unique, goal-oriented, anti-routine future dreamers. It is simply for those extroverts, risk-takers, who are always open to learning from other people, experiences, and even failure. Watch the Galala University panel with our Dr. Dianne H.B. Welsh below, or linked on their Facebook page here.
