How Genesis Works in Your Organization
Genesis will dispel myths related to entrepreneurship and offer essential knowledge that entrepreneurs can apply immediately. Here’s how it works:
Online Sessions
Participants have access to 30+ sessions with training videos, worksheets, and reading material spread out over the course of nine weeks.
Weekly Workshops
Each week, participants gather for a workshop facilitated by your organization where they learn together and give each other feedback.
Fieldwork
Worksheets and resources with each session, to keep you on track and ensure participants are applying Genesis directly to their business.
Customer Conversations
Participants identify their ideal customer and learn to engage with them regularly and create a customer-focused marketing plan.
Launch Readiness
Guide participants through a process of discovery and collection of assumptions to complete the OCEAN Business Model Canvas. They will know whether or not their business idea is viable.
Biblical Principles
With everything anchored in biblical principles that provide valuable faith tools for both life and business, participants from your organization will keep growing as leaders and individuals.
