== Tactic #1 - Implement a University-Wide Marketing Campaign Promoting Innovation and Entrepreneurship<br/> ==

Executing an awareness campaign is the first step. Collaboration with cross-university departments we will engage their respecitve champions to create promotional materials and announcements containing names, locations, programs and contact information to wide spread the word of our collective movement. This movement will be directing traffic to the most innovative resource we have - the SIU Research Park where the majority of our resources are located included CEO Corps, the student business incubator, labratories, collaboration spaces, business counselors and more.&nbsp;

We need to inspire creative thinking in our students by surrounding them with a creative environment.

== Tactic #3 - Open Up Dialogue Between Colleges via Resource Network ==

All too often we witness the spark in a students eye when they first realize how conceivable their bright new idea really is when they consider working with other College departments. However, more times than not, without a direct connection to desired college it can be difficult and frustrating to assemble a team. Simply cold calling a department phone number or emailing a student club should not be the only option. We propose to create comprehensive database network of involved innovators across all major departments in the univeristy. Not a directory, a network. These voluntary contacts on this database will be predetermined ambassadors of their department or group who give their permission to be contacted by fellow student innovators in search of knowledge specific to their venture. Opening up dialogue between departments for reasons outside of the classroom is a great way to collaborate on ideas.&nbsp;

== Tactic #1 - Discovering Passionate Leaders Among Disciplines ==

A common quality amoung Entreprenuers, Innovators, and Engineers are they all position themselves around passionate concepts that they are enthusiastic about. &nbsp;For students to understand this passion, they must see it first hand. &nbsp;While one approach is to ask teachers that seem passionate to teach the class. Another way around choosing a proffesor is to ask the students. &nbsp;They have seen the teachers that are the most innovative along with most enthusiastic about the topics they cover.

== Tactic #2 - Module Learning Classes for &nbsp;Hands on Innovation Learning ==

In the Fall of 2014 the Saluki CEO Corps produced and executed their first Business Start Up Module which had approximately 10 graduates who recieved certificates as Business Consultant Assistance. &nbsp;This success in a small size allows the same model be applied to other discplines for similar exercies to give participants a better understanding of the need to be fully aware of the disciplines that they could work with in the future for a possible start-up. &nbsp;
