Strategy #1: Perceived - Bettering Speaker Series at PSU

Following are an array of strategies that will fully address Gap #1 over a 2-3 year period:

Tactic #1: Outreach group, Logistics group, Marketing Group

• Description: Get three different groups on campus that are concentrating on promoting entrepreneurship on campus. By splitting them up into committees, it easier to mark progress. The outreach group would be responsible for reaching out to alumni and businesses, interviewing them, convincing them to speak at PSU, and knowing their availability. The logistics group would be responsible for all PSU-backend things, such as booking rooms, finding PSU availability, and confirming dates and times with speakers. The marketing group would be responsible for marketing the speakers to students to increase involvement. Each committee will have a head who is responsible for making sure that work gets done in a timely manner. 
• Team Leader:: Entrepreneurship Speaker Overall
• Milestones: 
• Find interested students 2/13
• Make committess 3/13
• Get a lineup of speakers 6/13
• Start speaker series 10/13

Tactic #2: Department Board

• Description: One faculty member and one student from each department will sit on a boad to inform the other departments regarding all entrepreneurial activities including, but not limited to, speakers. Then it can be decided whether that speaker coud also visit another department, or if they could hold a meet and greet with a few students.
