A new major is being launched at the University of Economics: Startup Leadership Program
Startups are a form of business often chosen by young people. It is usually accompanied by high growth dynamics and a rapidly growing team. It is a big challenge for a young leader, so it is important that he/she has the right competences.
Wroclaw University of Economics - together with the "inQUBE" Business Incubator operating at the university, has prepared postgraduate studies, whose main objective is to increase the chances of business success.
The Startup Leadership Program is designed for people just starting their adventure with business, but also for professionals aspiring to start their own startup after years of other professional experience.
We bet on practitioners
The curriculum was divided into two large thematic blocks developed together with the study partners. The first includes the development of managerial competencies and personal skills, such as public speaking and building a personal brand. Workshops on these topics will be conducted, among others, by trainers from Inżynieria Personalna, a consulting and training company specialising in building teams and developing individual competences of leaders.
The second thematic block concerned the skills necessary to run a fast-growing business in three key areas. Young leaders learn about the ICT industry from the marketing, financing and technology side.
Technology and finance
Technological issues as well as financing will be dealt with by, among others: Google for Startups - Google's global department supporting the development of startups and Dentons - the world's largest law firm also supporting technological entities, as part of its venture technology practice.
The studies will be conducted in Polish on the campus of Wrocław University of Economics and are an interesting proposal for every young entrepreneur who wants to achieve success in business.
