<i>‘This book’s global reach, with contributions from 48 educators across 14 countries, is a rarity. Too often teaching exercise collections stem from a singular context, imitating their generalizability to a wider array of classrooms. This volume, masterfully curated, is poised to transcend cultural boundaries and foster a deep, practical understanding of entrepreneurial concepts.’</i>

- Eric Liguori, Florida State University, USA,

<i>‘Faced with unprecedented societal challenges, professors seek to enable learners to develop the entrepreneurial skills and posture they will need for any career. This book, the fruit of a collective effort by “Babson Collaborative” members, offers a variety of activities that can be adapted to all contexts and cultures. It provides a great source of inspiration for professors who are constantly renewing and enriching their entrepreneurial teaching!’</i>

- Servane Delanoë Gueguen, TBS Business School, France,

<i>‘Entrepreneurship begins with an idea, curiosity, and a creative approach—competencies that can be learned. Gather the world’s best entrepreneurship educators and ask them to share their top experiential practices for teaching these skills. The outcome is this book, an inspirational collection of exercises to help educators instill an entrepreneurial mindset.’</i>

- Luke Pittaway, Ohio University, USA,

Presenting experiential and rigorously tested methodologies developed by over 40 global entrepreneurship educators, this timely guide helps educators add dynamic, interactive, immersive, fun, and practice-based experiences to their courses. It skilfully covers the three most important areas of entrepreneurship education: entrepreneurial mindsets, idea generation, and opportunity evaluation.Educators can choose from among 35 exercises that engage learners at the edge of their comfort zone to develop the courage and willingness to embrace and excel in uncertain, entrepreneurial environments. Entrepreneurship education can change the world if educators help learners think and act more entrepreneurially regardless of what they choose to do in life. As a result, entrepreneurship is now a necessary life skill – a way of living, doing, and thinking that helps everyone navigate and embrace uncertainty to create a more sustainable and responsible future.Entrepreneurship educators of all kinds and across all business disciplines will benefit from this invaluable guide. It is additionally useful for educators in higher education from other disciplines trying to inculcate entrepreneurship into their curriculum.
