This volume presents some of the most important 'debates' that exist in the field of Entrepreneurship today. It brings together leading scholars, deriving contributions from special sessions designed by the Global Consortium of Entrepreneurship Centers (GCEC) to discuss both sides of these 'great debates'. Topics include: “Is the Business Plan Really Dead and Should It Be,” “Does the Lean Start up Deserve all the Hype?” “Entrepreneurial Ecosystem - Weak Metaphor or Genuine Concept?” “Teaching vs. Doing – Is there a Role for Lecture and Content in Entrepreneurship Education?” “Should Centers Be Controlled Centrally?” and “Is a Bachelor’s Degree in Entrepreneurship Worth It?”.
This volume collects selected formal debates on entrepreneurship education that participants at various conferences engaged in. Among the topics are keeping it real: the benefits of experiential teaching methods in meeting the objectives of entrepreneurship education, whether the business plan is really dead and whether it should be: a case for the lean start-up approach, why aspiring entrepreneurs should not major in entrepreneurship, and whether university entrepreneurship centers should be controlled centrally: lessons learned in transitioning from a business school to a centralized center. -- Annotation ©2017 * (protoview.com) *
