MMU Enterprise Academy - Tomorrows Leaders

The third MMU Enterprise Academy workshop took place on Wednesday 11th January. The Enterprising skill covered this month was Leadership and was led by subject expert Linda Matthews.
This extra curricular session focussed on three types of leader – Traditional, Transactional and Transformational. The students threw themselves into activities identifying the leadership style of celebrities and well known figures as well as identifying their own leadership style accompanied by a t-shire strap line that encompassed all that they had learnt about themselves.


The MMU Enterprise Academy has attracted in excess of 20 students wishing to learn more about enterprise and starting their own business.
Claire Giddens, Project Officer within the Centre for Enterprise said: ‘the overwhelming success of enterprise academy has shown that there is a strong demand for enterprise support within the University. This is the first time we have run the academy and based on the enthusiasm and engagement of the attendees we hope to make this an annual programme of workshops’.
