Sobre

A great idea without execution has no value! Entrepreneurship is when you act upon opportunities and ideas and transform them into value for others. To transform ideas into value requires concrete action. This means you have to move, go for it and take action to make things happen, to realize your dream, to feel success, to create value for yourself, your surroundings, your community or even for the world. 

This Into Action Playlist is one of the 3 learning playlist we developed to help you create awareness, activate, train and develop a entrepreneurial mind, attitude and skills.

This playlist includes activities to support you to understand what it takes to go into action or realize things and the skills/steps you need to know about and go through to make sure you succeed. 

The activities on this playlist are based on Entrecomp (The Entrepreneurship Competence Framework) The  Entrecomp framework identifies entrepreneurial competences which are seen as transversal competence. Transversal competences are competences that applies to all spheres of life: from nurturing personal development, to actively participating in society, to (re)entering the job market as an employee or as a self-employed person, and also to starting up ventures (cultural, social or commercial). This competence model is used to define the Open Badges that you can earn during this learning playlist.

You can get aware and capitalize on the following skills
  • Initiate processes that create value
  • Take up challenges
  • Act and work independently to achieve goals, stick to intentions and carry out planned tasks
Following the learning activities which target the above skills will lead to your
gaining of the “Taking the initiative” Badge

Taking the initiative
When you show initiative, you do things without being told; you find out what you need to know; you keep going when things get tough and you spot and take advantage of opportunities that others pass by. You act, instead of reacting, at home, at school, at work or at an organization you’re involved with.
Taking Initiative has become increasingly important as a skill/competence. Most organizations want employees who can think for themselves and take action without waiting for someone to tell them what to do.
Taking Initiative means that you’re using your head and that you have the flexibility, drive and determination to achieve things. This is needed to push teams and organizations to innovate and to overcome competition. “Without initiative you will just basically sit back and let the world happen to you as opposed to making the world your oyster.”

Taking the Leap
Start Small: Taking action doesn't mean you have to do everything at once. Begin with small steps and gradually build momentum. Starting small allows you to learn and adapt as you go, and it reduces the risk of overwhelming yourself.
Take Initiative: Taking action often involves facing challenges and setbacks. Take the initiative and keep going, even when things get tough. Learn from failures and use them as opportunities to improve your approach. Embrace the responsibility to drive your idea forward and turn it into reality.
Embrace Adaptability: Flexibility is key when bringing an idea into reality. Be open to adjusting your plans based on new information, changing circumstances, or feedback. Adaptability allows you to stay agile and responsive to challenges.
Celebrate Progress: Acknowledge and celebrate your achievements, no matter how small. Recognize the effort and dedication you put into making your idea a reality. Celebrating milestones will keep you motivated and focused on the journey.
