Opportunity Seeking In Entrepreneurship, Spotting Business OpportunitiesJorge Saguinsin
This is a lecture for entrepreneurship elective in Ateneo Graduate School in the Philippines, a leading school in MBA education. The presentation has been uploaded at slideshare for the convenience and ease of access of present and former students for the said elective. Since the presentation has been updated, the students get the newest and latest.
The most difficult part in any entrepreneurial venture is determine which business to get into. This is often stymied mostly, by seeming overcrowding and lack of opportunity in the market place. The presentation says that there are many ways to seek for those opportunities.
"Motivation: A different perspective" is written based on various literature review on sustainability of performance - organisational culture/behaviour/creativity/ people processes, motivation etc. It brings two specific perspectives: "SPLITS & CARE". My recent interaction with Balaji Prof C who has developed an interesting process known as "Causing Incredible Performance" with remarkable impact on people and organisations - mainly focusing on rewiring their internal voices has further validated my perspectives. Kindly provide your insights on it.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
