Bill Roche shares stories of students who have started their own businesses with
PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs in this talk. He demonstrates the value of allowing
students to be in charge of their own learning and allowing them to make mistakes while
also challenging them to develop entrepreneurial skills. Bill also highlights the
accomplishments of individual students and discusses how one student's transformative
experience has served as a source of inspiration for him over the years. Bill Roche
specializes in developing entrepreneurship, financial literacy, and social responsibility
curriculum-based resource packages. Bill spent over ten years working in Langley
schools and now helps teachers all throughout the country create real-world learning
experiences for their kids. His PowerPlay Young Entrepreneurs program has enrolled
over 40,000 students.
I understood upon seeing his TedTalk that being an entrepreneur is a great way to
maximize one's potential. It will allow you to make your own decisions and will teach
you how to turn your dreams into reality. Entrepreneurship isn't just about having the
right abilities; it's also about having the right mindset. If you lose your enthusiasm and
appropriate perspective, your skills will fade away. Because they lack the mentality to
genuinely put in more effort and do their utmost for their concepts or judgments, not
everybody with talents wins. Something that our country desperately needs is to
introduce young children to the entrepreneurial attitude at an early age since it will help
them grow and develop their conviction, inventiveness, critical reasoning, challenge, and
communication skills.
