S’inspirer : comment chacun peut devenir entrepreneur du changement

L’objectif de ce chapitre sera de vous montrer que changer le monde, c’est possible ! Si, si, c’est vraiment possible. Et surtout, on essaiera de vous montrer, qu’en plus, c’est possible de plein de manières différentes. Vous allez voir !

Comprendre les grands enjeux : comment identifier des opportunités dans les problèmes du monde

Ce chapitre va vous permettre d’aborder, sous un autre angle, un sujet qui n’est pas toujours évident. En effet, nous allons parler des grands enjeux actuels, non pas dans le but de vous accabler mais afin de vous donner envie d’agir à votre échelle ! Vous vous rendrez compte que tous les défis majeurs auxquels nous faisons face peuvent être vus comme des opportunités formidables d’agir comme entrepreneur du changement, chacun à son échelle.

Découvrir son potentiel : comment trouver sa propre voie d'entrepreneur du changement

Nous sommes dans la partie centrale du processus en U : l’introspection. C’est un moment essentiel pour prendre du recul, trouver un moment pour soi, apprendre à mieux se connaître et identifier sa place dans le monde, ce qui permettra de mieux définir sa mission, avant de se replonger dans l’action.

Générer des idées : comment construire son projet à partir de sa mission sociale

Le but de cette semaine est de commencer à vous saisir de votre mission sociale, de la définir et de générer vos premières idées de projet. Pas d’inquiétude, on ne parle pas ici d’un “eurêka !”, mais de méthodes pour développer ou re-formuler vos premières idées.

Agir dans la durée : comment développer un modèle économique pérenne

Vous apprendrez à connaître et apprivoiser le Social Business Model de votre projet. Vous serez guidé tout au long du chapitre pour poser les fondations de votre modèle économique et ainsi commencer à définir comment pérenniser votre projet social.

Gagner en impact : comment s'outiller pour implémenter son projet

A ce stade, vous avez commencé à définir votre projet, sa mission sociale, et son modèle économique. Dans ce chapitre, vous découvrirez des outils indispensables pour lancer votre projet et faire les premiers pas pour passer à l’ACTION.

Se lancer !

Nous sommes à la fin du processus en U et du passage à l’action. Depuis le lancement de ce MOOC nous avons été impressionnés par l'intensité avec laquelle vous avez tous travaillé ! Nous sommes fiers de voir que des projets ont pu éclore de ces 7 chapitres, ou que vous avez pu faire un sacré bout de chemin sur votre parcours d’entrepreneurs du changement ! Dans ce chapitre, nous allons vous donner les derniers éléments essentiels pour vous lancer et surtout vous booster avant la fin de ce MOOC avec de très très nombreux conseils précieux que l’ensemble des pionniers nous ont transmis pour vous !
