THINKING CREATIVELY
CREATIVE THINKING is the process by which individuals come up with new ideas or new approaches to business
NEW IDEAS could result in a new product - a games console for example - or they could result in a NEW PROCESS that cuts costs or improves quality - for example, a bagless vacuum cleaner
Fresh ideas give businesses a COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE and help make their goods or services stand out in the market place

LEGAL PROTECTIONENTREPRENEURS can use the LAW to protect their business ideas…
REGISTER OWNERSHIP of an invention or new process and be given a PATENT - this can stop rivals from copying the idea for a set number of years
COPYRIGHT automatically arises for people creating books, films, music or games so that they can claim damages if someone copies their work
REGISTER A TRADEMARK - a symbol or phrase that a company can register with the government to make their company distinctive
A patent, copyright or trademark grants LEGAL OWNERSHIP and is only given for original work

Being your own boss - setting up and running your own business or being self-employed - isn’t easy, it requires a great deal of motivation and particular personal qualities and skills
You can take a simple test to see if you are someone who might be successful at running their own business or being self-employed
Ask your teacher to give you access to the Enterprise Toolkit activity COULD YOU BE YOUR OWN BOSS?

SETTING UP YOUR OWN ENTERPRISE
Probably the best way to develop your ENTERPRISE skills is to set up your own business!
Why not talk to your teachers and friends and start planning your own business?
You might find you’ll get lots of support (especially if your enterprise has a social purpose or will benefit the school).
