As entrepreneurship educators, our own personal preferences for one or more of these approaches is likely to emanate from our own beliefs concerning the purpose of Higher Education. It’s important to be conscious of our own educational philosophy as entrepreneurship educators, as regardless of our approach and how we promote our programmes, it will affect the role we adopt and consequently the congruency of our initiatives. If we believe that the purpose of higher education is…. Then we a likely to believe the purpose of entrepreneurship education is… And the role of the educator is … Liberalist – to convert information into knowledge and knowledge into wisdom Is to develop understanding of and insights into the world of entrepreneurship The Guru: providing access to leading experts and successful entrepreneurs for transmitting knowledge and insight Behaviourist – to meet the of society or industry – to define the desired behaviours and produce people who behave in these ways Is to acquire a predetermined set of entrepreneurial capabilities at a specified standard of application The Controller: monitoring and directing learners towards achieving intended entrepreneurial capabilities Progressive – to focus on practical knowledge and skills that enhance individual effectiveness in society, promoting life-long learning, focusing on the needs of the learner Is to fulfil individual potential within an entrepreneurial society and economy The Guide: creating entrepreneurial, experiential learning environments and processes Humanistic – personal growth and self-actualisation Is to develop and achieve personal growth and development The Helper: facilitating a process with peers and entrepreneurs Radical – catalyst for fundamental change in society Is to exploit entrepreneurship as a tool for socio economic and political change The Coordinator: Learning through collective action: equality between the learner and the educator Adapted from Hannon’s (2005) Inventory I think one can map the about, through, and for approaches to the frameworks of philosophies of adult education. Liberalist and Behaviourist might be said to map onto the About approach; Progressive and Humanist might map onto the Through approach; and a Radical philosophy might map onto the For approach. Each have their utility but require the educator to be aligned with the approach and the curriculum design. We may find responsible for an entrepreneurship initiative designed to enable students to achieve a predetermined set of competencies – but if we believe that the purpose of HE is about personal growth and self-actualisation we might feel frustrated and conflicted.
Forms of Organization Band A band is a unique legal structure in Canada that derives power and authority from inherent aboriginal rights, through the Indian Act, and through delegated authority by agreement operate as self-governing corporations. Law recognizes most aboriginal communities as which consist of members and reserve lands. A chief and council govern a band. Beyond this legal recognition, Bands will often create corporations or societies to conduct certain business and deals with land. Sole Proprietorship Unincorporated: No compliance mechanism to force a sole proprietorship to incorporate and subject themselves to legislation Sole Proprietorships that engage in manufacturing, trading or mining must register their business name (In Ontario?) Ontario forces sole proprietors to register names, prevents confusion in marketplace The most simple form of business organization 1 Owner Normally executed by small scale service providers that don’t need to worry about pensions, shares, leases, overhead, payroll etc. Pros Start-up cost is limited to what you inject into the business No need to dissolve business formally, no formal legislative compliance requirements Technically no limit to how many employees you have, informal structure No duty or imposition of any form of Corporate Social Responsibility Cons No separation between the business owner and his business. No separate legal personality. This exposes the owner to full liability and affords no protection through the corporate entity. May be wise to incorporate a one man business to get this protection Partnership A partnership is defined as a relationship (S.2 BC Partnership Act) Between two or more persons Carrying on business In common (consensually) With a view to profit Note: Profit need not be attained, it need only be sought Note: Person includes Corporation under S.29 of the Interpretations Act, ergo, partnerships can exist between two corporations. It may be economically efficient for these companies to do so, such as for sharing debts and liabilities or profits. Key Legislation
