On 28-29 June 2024, we invited you to Stacja Kultury in Pyskowice for a unique training on developing entrepreneurial competences based on building a social network and developing skills for raising funding through civic crowdfunding.
The entire training was divided into three modules.
Module 1 focused on self-reflection and understanding the entrepreneurial mindset, covering topics such as leadership (control, following the entrepreneurial mindset concept), the definition of being an entrepreneur – self-concept and self-efficacy, and dealing with imposter syndrome.
Module 2 focused on storytelling and branding competencies and covered areas such as creativity and the ability to tell one’s own story, and identified creative tools to develop these issues and innovate in one’s actions and ideas.
Module 3, on the other hand, dealt with positive psychology tools for increasing motivation, the ability to set SMART goals, and introduced the flow model.
GrowthFundMe is an international project in which partners from 4 countries (Poland, Belgium, Bulgaria and the Netherlands) work to increase social inclusion, employability and develop entrepreneurial competences of people and communities with fewer opportunities by promoting new forms of self-organisation, solidarity and citizenship. The tools, including communication and participation, used to develop social networks are ‘crowdbuilding’, ‘crowdfunding’ and ‘crowdsourcing’. GrowthFundMe combines crowdfunding and business training, with all the pluses of mobilising local resources and developing networking skills.
The training was led by Wenancjusz Ochmann and Ewa Grynicka.
