Entrepreneur for a Day is an E-Club project that gives young people a closer look at an entrepreneur’s working life. It connects the idea of entrepreneurship with the experience of people who run businesses.
Entrepreneur for a Day: a look at working life
Ever wondered what a day in the life of an entrepreneur looks like? This might be a project for you. An entrepreneur is a person who organizes and operates a business or businesses, taking on greater than normal financial risks to do so.
Being your own boss and making your own rules is the dream of the entrepreneur, but sometimes that freedom can be a little overwhelming. Having the freedom to create your own day will test your skills of self-discipline in ways that having a day-job – and therefore a boss to answer to – never will, but it does give you the ability to live a life you choose.
Through this project, young people can visit real entrepreneurs and can have the opportunity to see what a day in the life of real entrepreneurs look like. Huge thanks to all the SMEs and their owners and CEOs who participated in the project.
