    #6: Inspiring Entrepreneurial Youth: The Story of eAcademy at Linden Pointe

    Release Date: 11/26/2019

    Duration: 3160 Mins

    Authors: Wendy Kennedy

    Description: I think we can all agree that helping people develop an entrepreneurial mindset can have its challenges.  After all, you’re trying to change attitudes and behaviours – and most of us are creatures of habit and change doesn’t come easy.  Leadership and innovative thinking play a critical role in moving mindsets.  And when your audience is a room full of teenagers, you have your work cut out for you! That’s the landscape for Lisa Evans, Founder & Director of the eAcademy at LindenPointe in Hermitage, Pennsylvania.  Lisa is one of those inspirational leaders who has a unique approach and program to help high school seniors become more entrepreneurial.  Her goal is simple but profound – to help prepare them for the world after high school as confident, creative, and thoughtful participants – maybe as a start-up founder, but equally valuable, as a contributing member of the community.
