On December 8, 2013, we celebrate the Mama Mary's Immaculate Conceptcion; last November 25, we forgot the last and a very important part of the celebration of night with the entrepreneurs: the playing of the Ateneno hymn graduation song. I am posting a you tube video of the song: (for make up purposes and to remind our Sentrep students to: 1. strive to be graduates 2. to be aware that they stand between the earth and sky: reality of a cruel and lying world and idealism taught by the Lord and the Jesuits) And that will our struggle in the world, as we manage the world of power and wealth, as MBA:

Night wtih Entrepreneurs last night November 25, 2013 - a night to remember
AGSB | H de la Costa Campus, Salcedo Village, Makati City | November 25, 2013
Today is the last day of the Sentrep Class. The last activity/event is the group work - Entrep Guest which is gets hefty number of points for the group work grade and they get a 4.0 for bringing the entrepreneur. I found this to be an important event because the real authority on the subject are not the case analyses or the group creative activity but the real entrepreneurs story - their journey, their blood sweat and tears as they built up their enterprises.
The class aptly called it the Entrepreneur's Night. (so they made sure that we started at 6:30) And we were honored to have as our guest last night: Mr. Peter Paul Cauton, an HR man, a blogger,; Ms. Caroline Cua (fresh graduate with her preservative less calamansi - dont ask me how she does it, it is probably a trade secret) who supports this professor on the importance of business planning (so guys are you beginning to have your business concept and model, objectives); Mr Chris Angeles and his advocacy for a shorter work week (4 hours as per Tim Ferris - my daughters told me earlier about this about a year ago) and Mr. Dennis (Dencio) a divemaster, serial entrepreneur, mountaineer, and tourism guy from Dive Planet.
Peter Paul posted this event at his blog: Juan Great Leap. (Thanks for the blog post sir)
Most of them mentioned what has been mentioned in the class:
1. Whole brain Hermann 4 brain thinking - from Dennis
2. Business models (from Dennis and Peter)
3. Business planning by Caroline
4. Opportunities and find out what sucks in the business or in the market (Peter Paul)
5. Writing your personal strategic plan (the learning agreement)
6. The importance of personal mastery (especially Caroline) everybody
7. Opportunities within your business (as laundry, hardware, real estate) from Dennis
8. Opportunity scanning (from Dennis) PESTEL - worldwide outlook on tourism, the Cape Verde triangle.
9. Now (everybody says that the time to start being an entrepreneur is not later when you are old but now) Listen to the cat on the rooftop. Now
