Topic: The Blank Slate Effect: How to Use an Entrepreneurial Mindset to Win in Business

The mindset of an entrepreneur is a unique set of qualities that positions startups to be more resourceful, take more risks, and view their business and its marketing plan as a blank slate, not a set of established rules. In this session, Erin Bury will use her decade of experience working with high-profile startups to define the entrepreneurial mindset and show audiences how to implement that mindset within your own organization. Drawing on case studies of successful companies who have leveraged the entrepreneurial mindset, Bury leaves audiences with a worksheet to guide them through applying the “blank slate effect” at their next brainstorm. Bury can also structure this session as a workshop, taking attendees through a worksheet and conducting exercises that help them apply the entrepreneurial mindset to their own marketing programs.
