                                                    “We are recognizing that being entrepreneurial does not just apply to
                  INDUSTRY                          start-ups or traditional business majors. Entrepreneurship is about
                  INTERACTION                       opportunity creation and exploitation, which cuts across all disciplines
                  Connecting students &               and businesses, whether they are just starting or well established.”

                                                 You have them in your organization. Creative thinkers. Passionate, driven,
                                                 risk takers—these employees are similar to entrepreneurs, but they are
                                                 actually intrepreneurs. They have the ability to grow companies from
                                                 within. Intrepreneurs engage with the internal and external environment,
                                                 commit to a vision, challenge the status quo, lead cross-functional teams,
                                                 and persevere to salvage options even in times of uncertainty.

                                                 Aware of the need for both entrepreneurs and intrepreneurs in the global
                                                 marketplace, LSBE is expanding its current entrepreneurship program.
