This course proposes to the students the new vision of the entrepreneur as a leader. Modern management system crucially changed from the role of entrepreneur as a formal “boss” to the role of a creator, innovator and moreover, a leader of the team, leader of community, and leader of positive changes who creates added value. During this course we will create a personal mission and develop the personal brand of an entrepreneur as a leader. We will discuss how modern entrepreneurs and their teams change whole industries and make an important impact on society. The students will develop their leadership skills in a very practical way - leading their startups with added value for their team, business products, clients and moreover the community/society.
This course contains two important for successful company parts: marketing and sales.
 
These are the parts that are linked with each other - it is very difficult to sell without marketing support and it is very difficult to achieve results with marketing efforts only.
 
Marketing part, starting from defining things like developing marketing strategy for the companies, finally offers practical tools of digital marketing. We will explore new digital reality and its impact on IT business. We will learn success stories of real businesses and how companies are adapting to the new changing landscape.
 
The second part of the course covers important things for every company's success – the sales process. Understand how to attract customers in negotiations, how to “get to yes” getting great deals, how to control the sales funnel – you will get the understanding how it works and try it in practice.
