Into action

Sobre

A great idea without execution has no value! Entrepreneurship is when you act upon opportunities and ideas and transform them into value for others. To transform ideas into value requires concrete action. This means you have to move, go for it and take action to make things happen, to realize your dream, to feel success, to create value for yourself, your surroundings, your community or even for the world. 
﻿
This Into Action Playlist is one of the 3 learning playlist we developed to help you create awareness, activate, train and develop a entrepreneurial mind, attitude and skills. 
﻿
This playlist includes activities to support you to understand what it takes to go into action or realize things and the skills/steps you need to know about and go through to make sure you succeed. 
﻿

Transversal competences are competences that applies to all spheres of life: from nurturing personal development, to actively participating in society, to (re)entering the job market as an employee or as a self-employed person, and also to starting up ventures (cultural, social or commercial). This competence model is used to define the Open Badges that you can earn during this learning playlist.

Taking the initiative
When you show initiative, you do things without being told; you find out what you need to know; you keep going when things get tough and you spot and take advantage of opportunities that others pass by. You act, instead of reacting, at home, at school, at work or at an organization you’re involved with.
Taking Initiative has become increasingly important as a skill/competence. Most organizations want employees who can think for themselves and take action without waiting for someone to tell them what to do. 
Taking Initiative means that you’re using your head and that you have the flexibility, drive and determination to achieve things. This is needed to push teams and organizations to innovate and to overcome competition. “Without initiative you will just basically sit back and let the world happen to you as opposed to making the world your oyster.”
