SUMMARY:YOUTH LED: Don't Speak\, Communicate
DESCRIPTION:As the name suggests\, this workshop stresses the importance of communication\, not just speaking. While speaking simply involves delivering a speech or a lecture in front of an audience\, communication focuses on making that speech heard\, making your message understood\, be it in front of one person or hundreds. If you often avoid asking doubts in classes\, are afraid to present your views in group projects\, often get ignored in your friend circle or feel shy speaking in front of groups of people\, this workshop is for you.As a teenager\, I hope to share my journey with communication skills building and give tangible advice as to how to get the confidence to speak in front of an audience\, make your speeches meaningful and learn to convert your thoughts into words in an effective manner. I’ll also show examples of the do’s and don’t’s of communication and hold interactive exercises to better understand the concepts. Overall\, you’ll definitely return as a better communicator after the workshop.

SUMMARY:The Curious Case of Copycat Entrepreneurs: How to be Motivated in the World of Competition?
DESCRIPTION:Many entrepreneurs face competition when they succeed with their business plans especially when others copy their successful formula for their financial gains. Those entrepreneurs who copy other entrepreneurs are called “Copycat Entrepreneurs”. However\, some of these successful entrepreneurs become demotivated and disappointed after the increasing competition within the market. This cycle creates an ecosystem called Red Ocean Strategy\, where there are several competing businesses offering the same products and services.\nWhile the chance of copycat entrepreneurs to sustain their businesses diminishes over time\, they eventually could end up eating a big chunk of your market revenues. In fact\, it is a good chance for entrepreneurs to come up with new or modified products\, services\, and re-shifting their strategy to focus on keeping their loyal customers\, as well as having new customers. \nAt this workshop we will dig deeper into the definitions and meaning of being an entrepreneur and understanding the factors that keeps the business surviving on the long run.  We will go through some examples and stories of businesses on both the red and blue oceans strategies\, we will also learn about the customer and user experiences\, as well as how others copied businesses has failed\, while others had to innovate and survived.   \nAfter listening to several examples\, we will go into the Lean Method of entrepreneurship\, where participants will learn how to make their business more efficient and effective by cutting cost\, time\, and waste.  Each group will have a 3D modular cutout of retails or factories with fictional scenarios\, and they must adopt lean methods to make the production smoother or to generate more sales.  (Alt: images will be used for the activity in the case of an online session) \nTowards the end we will get the feedback from the participants on how they modified their business models\, and how they can implement the lesson learned towards their future entrepreneurial projects.

SUMMARY:Diversity Atlas: Leadership through Diversity
DESCRIPTION:What is diversity? Is it a school policy? Is it a recruitment quota? Is it rewriting policy for recruitment so if a diverse person happens to apply\, they are not discriminated against in policy? Or is it a new way of thinking\, a new way of outreach\, and the future of our global village? Diversity Atlas is a technological tool that allows users to discover language\, religion\, ethnicity\, country of birth and a range of other demographic dimensions of diversity that will help young leaders understand what a robust diversity mindset is.In this workshop participants will have the opportunity to build personal and leadership skills by exploring other cultures such as aboriginal\, refugee and migrant worker experiences. The workshop will also demonstrate how educators use Diversity Atlas to enhance learning of empathy in classrooms today.
