Financier, Economist
Creating a business from an idea is an amazing accomplishment,
a combination of air and a little bit of capital;
but then that’s what an entrepreneur does. An entrepreneur
can also be a lemonade stand owner, a paperboy with his own
route, a baseball card collector who trades up until he or she
has the “perfect” deck, or it can be the junior high school girl
who creates a summer day camp for the local kids in her
backyard.
Enterprising kids are often overlooked until adulthood.
Finding programs that tap into their entrepreneurial spirit
will help build resilience and instill self-reliance. These programs
start in your own community and are usually implemented
in junior high and high school. The Wharton Business
School Leadership in Business Program is an example of a
program that offers high school seniors the opportunity to
attend a camp in which they can explore the field of business
and leadership and have fun at the same time.
