Skyline University Nigeria (SUN) has yesterday, October 31st 2024, hosted Zayyad Academy for an inspiring changing gear seminar aimed at empowering the students with the latest information on entrepreneurship careers and opportunities. The seminar, titled ‘Unleashing Your Potential: A Journey into Entrepreneurship for Future Leaders,’ was led by Mr. Aliyu Muhammed, a lecturer in the Department of Management at SUN.
Mr. Muhammed explained that “today, an entrepreneur is an innovator or developer who recognizes and seizes opportunities; converts those opportunities into workable or marketable ideas; adds value through time, effort, money or skills; assumes the risks of the competitive marketplace to implement these ideas; and realizes the rewards from the efforts.”
He said entrepreneurship is the most sought-after skill in the world today. He listed some of the qualities of an entrepreneur to include being innovative, having the willingness to take risks, the ability to learn from experience, motivation and self-confidence.
Through engaging discussions, practical examples, and interactive sessions, Mr. Muhammed encouraged students to explore their strengths, overcome challenges, and harness their potential to achieve entrepreneurial success.
The students who attended the session appreciated the university for organizing the event. They said they are now informed about making good career choices that will enable them to have an impact in their communities.
