Award to Trizza for winning last week's debate

AGSB, H de la Costa Campus, Makati City Philippines | December 16, 2013

It is nine days before Christmas, start of simbang gabi. We still had classes for the Sentrep in H de la Costa campus. of the 9 students only 4 attended and this included the new enrolee, Grace Agustin. Those who came were Carlo, Rocky and Trizza. We merely discussed the hand out for strategic planning and I lectured on my background as entrepreneur and professor, and on business planning.

Grace Agustin correctly guessed why Trizza singlehandedly won he debate. It was because 3 siya...

Our Spentrep Class Last December 9, 2013

AGSB, H de la Costa campus, December 16, 2013

Tonight, we will have our 2nd session for Spentrep Class in H de la Costa. There were only 8 and is in danger of being scrapped because 8 is the Break Even number I have been told that there was one additional enrolee. And is just one short of being considered sustainable.

There were 8 enrolees and only 6 attended.

We walked through the syllabus and we went through some lectures at the slideshare. And we had a debate: Entrepreneurs Born Made or product of serendipity or opporutnity. Trizzia, the lone defender for the made won the debate as per Rocky, the class leader for the debate. It is unfortunate that I was not able to post at once. I could not find the pictures I took (the camera has senior moments!)

Why did Trizzia win because "3 siya" Hahaha

Who enrolled in the class: Zordialine, Francis, Trizza, Rocky, Cristhel, Pamela Ann (a) Carlo Senica and Jennifer (a) Thanks for enrolling; it is going to be hard

Teaching Assignment for MBA AGSB-University of Iloilo Program

Iloilo City, Philippines December 14, 2013

                                    Terence was the masterful Presiding Officer of the debate

I was given a teaching assignment for MBA Regis Program at University of Iloilo by Ms. Bigette Vinuya. Our academic coordinator there was Ms. Carmen Dabao, and the student for entrepreneuship there would be the first batch for MBA: Terence, Pam, Christian, Joevic, Ramey and Jan.

I said that they need MBA only for the certification. Joevic is a NSM of Jardine Davies, Christian family's AM Builders have several (dozens of stores all ready) Terence business include sugar central, importation of soya, livestock, sustainable livestock, and flour, Ramey if Coke plant manager, and the family of Jan is into pharmaceutical. We just need to facilitate the sharing

And so I flew in from Manila and the plane was delayed for two hours last Friday December 13, 2013. Since I could not find the hotel booked for me, Circle Inn, I stayed at Riverside Inn, where I usually stay for my Iloilo visit. It is cheap (only P500.00 per night after senior citizen discount,) and very accessible.

I taught the following day. The assignments were explained we would catch up next session. We only have 3 remaining days session:   Jan 15, February 1 and 8

I found out that three of the students business were hard hit by Yolanda: AM builders of Christian, the sugar central of Terrence, and the cock farms of Joevic. They welcome donations

The classroom did not have a PC or computer: only a projector. We were used to the support given to the faculty at AGSB

We had a lunch though at Chicken Inasal.

Our major activities were:   the walk through of the syllabus, the debate and the group presentation of Illegal Activities. We had fun in the debate and the illegal activity and practiced a lot of critical thinking.    Terence though deftly handled Joevic who constantly asked questions; he was entitled to only one question.
