Why Need of a Mentor for Entrepreneurial Success?
When you are starting a business in Vancouver, you are in dire need of a business mentor for entrepreneurial success.
Top Entrepreneurship - A career in the music industry
In this presentation Sebastiaan Hooft talks about top entrepreneurship in the music industry at 2016 Dancefair. Based in his TEDx talk on top entrepreneurship, Hooft covers his five facets every artist should think about: idea; team; planning; resources and health.
Over the past fifteen years, Sebastiaan has founded more than twenty companies, becoming one of the most successful entrepreneurs
in the Netherlands, and living a wealthy but stressful life. Slowly but steadily, music faded to the background as his career took over. Unaware that life had other plans in store for him, he lost himself in managing the empire he’d built. Inevitably, though, 2010 brought a turning point: Sebastiaan ended up in the hospital with serious health issues. That’s when he knew change was coming. And so, he sold his companies, gave his profits to charity and started travelling the globe talking to other inspiring and successful people and get to know their tactics. He talked to over five hundred of them, turned himself into a speaker and mentor for startups and managers, and created a canvas for living a healthy entrepreneurial life. One of the companies that was interested in using this canvas was a DJ school in Amsterdam. Right there, back behind the decks, Sebastiaan found what he’d lost so many years ago – and he didn’t hesitate a second. He took a deep dive and made a bold move by choosing to go for his passion: music.
Dancefair is a two day event for everyone who wants to grow as a performing professional in the electronic music industry. The event is fueled with more than 200 seminars and workshops across 18 mind blowing areas and a 1800m2 expo floor. Dancefair takes place in the Jaarbeurs Utrecht, the Netherlands.

Introduction Once your brand is created, you need to communicate it in writing and verbally. An interview is a prime example of verbally communicating your brand to the employer you are following. In this assignment, compose responses to some popular first interview questions. The effort it takes to consider and formulate responses, and then compose them, pays off in our ability to articulate them clearly in a face-to-face interview.

7 Habits of Highly Effective People.pptx
Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
