The terms enterprise and entrepreneurship are currently used in a variety of contexts and embed with a wide range of meaning. Within this range there are narrow meanings of the word specifically related to business and wider meanings indicating a way of thinking or behaving that can be applied in a variety of contexts, including business. This module will address the subject in a holistic manner, one in which the range of contexts; from entrepreneurship to intrapreneurship, and from high tech spin out to social enterprise is considered. The focus on both macro and micro dimensions, for example from government policy to individual personality traits, will allow students to understand the dynamic nature of the subject and also its interrelationship with both the UK and global economy.
