Entrepreneurship 101: Know your customer

If you’re looking to develop any kind of project, understanding how to talk and empathize with your audience is an essential ability. This session will give you the opportunity to practice asking good questions and harnessing your curiosity to bring the highest quality information to your interviews and conversations. Not only will it directly improve your decision-making abilities, but it also will help you form meaningful relationships, deeper understandings, validate hypotheses and make good use of your limited time.

The entrepreneurial skill of interviews – both formal and informal – is key to many aspects of both start-up and professional life. By learning how to ask questions and truly listen for answers, you will learn how to extract powerful insights that can propel your ideas forward and bring them to life.
