Can entrepreneurship be taught?

WorklifeIndia

Available for over a year

A good college degree has long been considered a reliable path to professional success. But if you’re an aspiring entrepreneur looking to build a business from scratch, you need a special set of skills. Can this business acumen be taught in college? Do you need a degree to become an entrepreneur? In this edition of WorklifeIndia, we hear from two entrepreneurs with very different educational backgrounds and a business school professor. We ask them whether a college education is all it’s cracked up to be. Is it time to learn from the school of life instead? Presenter: Rahul Tandon Contributors: Suchita Salwan, Founder & CEO at Little Black Book; Ankit Oberoi, co-founder at Adpushup; Dr. Pavitra Mishra, professor at Indian Institute of Management Rohtak.
