In the second part of the conversation with Julian Hall from Ultra Education, the focus is on young entrepreneurs who are combining education and running a business. Irene and Julian discuss how both parents and kids can navigate this complex area not become overwhelmed as they pursue new things,  listen in now to hear this invaluable advice. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 

• We see kids who have a business and are in school, they are passionate about their business and then we see others who are overwhelmed by it. 
• Young entrepreneurs are doing something different, something the ordinary person would not do.   
• If you continually remind the school that your child is also running a business they will come to a point of understanding. 
• If they are trying at lots of new things they need time to reflect, to internalise, to digest, to work out what to do next. 

• Give them the tools and capability to respond to change and to keep themselves focused on the things they enjoy most. 
• If they enjoy it they’ll do it better and that will have enough value to give them remuneration. 
• The fourth industrial revolution requires kids to have ideas and navigate new ways of thinking and feeling about things. 
• Our job is to give them a new set of skills that will enable them to do new things to be creative, innovate and think about the things they really want to do and believe that it's possible. 
• This new era is ushering in opportunity and the belief it is possible. 

• Entrepreneurs solve problems so when it's solved we either build on that or move to something new. 
• There is support for the Arts there should be support for kids wanting to learn about entrepreneurship and business.
