Quiz Info & Slides from Class

I am going to quiz you on Week 1 and Week 2 assigned readings and videos. There will probably be 10-12 questions in a variety of formats (multiple choice, fill in the blank, matching and short answer). In terms of the Guy K. book I know there is a lot, just focus on the main lessons he made them very clear.

Click here to download the PPTs I showed in class. If you download the slides, you can watch the entire Guy K. video (just click on his name).

Week 1 - Topics and Homework

Over the next two classes we will cover the syllabus, structure of the course, goals and entrepreneurial foundation for this course. The main goal for Week 1 is making sure we all fully understand Peter Drucker's Seven Sources of Opportunity. We will tap in to the mind of a digital commerce legend and savvy businessman, Guy Kawasaki. We'll spend some time with Guy as we read his book Rules For Revolutionaries: The Capitalist Manifesto for Creating and Marketing New Products and Services.This book will put us in the perfect mindset for this course.
