Innovation and creativity make life worthwhile, particularly in our choices involving where we work, how
we work and what we get from our work. Exploring the innovation and passion associated with
entrepreneurship affords all actuaries an opportunity to consider how to further empower and challenge
themselves as they remain professional and focused. Consider attending two dynamic sessions with a
single goal: to make you the entrepreneurial actuary you want to be. The sessions are designed to stand
alone, or combined offer a detailed exploration of entrepreneurship within a big box corporation or on a
smaller, more intimate scale. Either session focuses your work on the passion and the innovation that
marks a strong and directed career!
Part One: So you work for a big box corporation and you wonder how you can inject new energy into the
organization? This workshop will unleash your creative and innovative side within your company's
environment. What does it mean to be an "entrepreneur" and does this word fit in your world? Come to this
session and explore the elements of creativity that influence your professional future, job performance,
work/life balance, risk and passion. Become a strategic innovator, aware of the value proposition, and
market yourself as the powerful, passionate and innovative actuary you need to be to grow in the world
that lies ahead.
All attendees will receive some critical articles on how to start and operate a business on its own or within
a corporate structure, details on entrepreneurial thinking and innovative practices and what it takes to
start a business today and in our field.
