CASE STUDY – Part 2
Pick the idea on your list that you like best. Using Professor Osborne’s look-listen-think-act model, evaluate its potential. Your goal is to be rigorous in your thinking to decide if you really might have an actionable idea here – one that funders might be interested in supporting, one that you think could actually succeed.
Template for Part 2
SELECTED IDEA FROM ABOVE:
LOOK: What evidence can you SEE that supports this idea’s potential?
LISTEN: What evidence can you HEAR that supports this idea’s potential?
THINK: What evidence do you have through LOGIC/REASONING that supports this idea’s potential?
ACT: What ACTION/S will you take next to try to validate that this idea can actually succeed?
Part 3 So now you have the start of an idea and you think it might even work! Are you prepared to make this entrepreneurial vision a reality? Can you actually become an entrepreneur? Using the checklist of characteristics – some mentioned by Professor Osborne, some added – indicate where you feel you stand on each one. Rubric for Part 3
Using the list of 16 characteristics below, check the number on each continuum line to indicate where you stand on each one. (Note: There is no “middle number” to encourage you to lean low or high.)
