Today our Jackson CEO students had the privilege of visiting Silkworm, Inc. with founder Bob Chambers. He shared powerful insights on what it truly means to be an entrepreneur:

πŸ’‘ β€œEntrepreneurship is a mindset. You can work for someone and still be an entrepreneur.” – Bob Chambers

He also reminded us of the characteristics every entrepreneur should carry:
πŸ”Ή Hard worker
πŸ”Ή Learning to overcome being an introvert when you need to be an extrovert
πŸ”Ή Leading with a servant’s heart and taking the responsibility seriously

We even got a behind-the-scenes look at Silkworm’s production processβ€”a true example of passion and excellence in action.

One statement that stuck with us all:
πŸ‘‰ β€œBefore you quit, give it one more day.”

Thank you, Bob, for pouring wisdom into the next generation of leaders and entrepreneurs!
