ENTREPRENEURIAL MINDSET

Make initiative
more intentional.

In changing markets, organisations need people who can recognise possibilities and act with judgement. Entrepreneurial capability can be explored, discussed and developed.

THE METHOD

Meet the EMP®.

The Entrepreneurial Mindset Profile® is an evidence-based assessment developed by the Leadership Development Institute at Eckerd College in the United States. It examines 14 personality traits and skills associated with entrepreneurial thinking and action.

Through our relationship with ILD Germany, we use the profile as a starting point for reflection and development, not a label or a promise of future performance.
