The Book
In a rapidly changing world there is no doubt that business opportunities are bountiful for those who are prepared to look at existing landscapes with fresh eyes. But are we recognising the entrepreneurs in our communities and giving them the encouragement they need?
Entrepreneurship: It's everybody's business shares practical ideas to help strengthen rural businesses and communities.
Businesswoman, Kerry Anderson, shares her observations and case studies of successful rural entrepreneurs and communities from a five year journey that took her across rural Australia and to Nebraska in the United States.
Kerry encourages us all to look at the big picture and understand that there is no quick fix but much can be achieved if we embrace change, work collaboratively and invest in future generations.
Discover why it’s everybody’s business to be in interested in entrepreneurship and what proactive leaders and communities can do to encourage it. Quite simply, our future depends on it!
