EconSurvivor2012 is a cross between Survivor Man and Scout Camp. Or better yet, it’s what you get when you mix Stephen R Covey with Chuck Norris… it’s ninjapreneurship in excellence. Thomas Edison said, “Genius is 1% inspiration, and 99% perspiration – Thomas Edison”. Young entrepreneurs and leaders will spend 5-7 monitored days out in the wilderness learning to survive the cold, heat, danger, or fearful surroundings. After a few days of just surviving, mentors and parents will shadow their progress as they start moving into a state of thriving, and then begin to learn how a real business man or woman thrives in the economic wilderness, whether through government, communities, education, and other institutions that will play a critical role in their communications in the real world. Away from the massive influx of distractions that a youth face on an hourly basis, we will tap into the vein of genius and epiphany, and begin what many call the visioneering process. Warning: Campfires will not be the only thing ignited during this experience.
