校園霍特獎英文工作坊 打造市場需求導向的商業計畫書

【產創總中心訊】
產創總中心與商學院創新創業辦公室近日在研創中心舉辦校園霍特獎英文工作坊,邀請豐才管理顧問有限公司(Emerald Talent Consulting)創辦人Janice Lai主講「Building a Business Plan」。Janice以其豐富的創業經驗,分享如何在有限資源下打造一份商業計畫書。

首先,Janice向學生說明商業計畫書的10個核心要素,包括核心價值主張、問題與解決方案、目標市場、競爭分析、銷售與行銷管道、資金管理等。她強調,商業計畫的根基在於清晰的價值定位,並以解決市場痛點為目標。為了讓學生更易理解,她舉例介紹豐才管理顧問有限公司的核心價值主張,即成為人才與企業之間的橋樑,幫助職場人士清晰職涯規劃,同時協助企業精準找到所需人才。此外,Janice提醒學生,商業計畫書不必追求完美,而應以市場需求為導向,並在實踐中持續優化。

接著,Janice分享在創業旅程中的幾個重要里程碑。例如,她首次與全球奢侈品集團Richemont合作,為該集團在臺灣舉辦的職涯日活動提供專業諮詢服務,並邀請專家參與講座。此外,她創辦的Podcast節目截至目前已推出七期,邀請來自設計、科技及半導體等多個領域的專業人士分享職場經驗。Janice指出,這些實踐經驗不僅讓她更加了解市場需求,也為公司拓展寶貴的合作資源。

此外,Janice特別提到資金管理與團隊合作對於創業的關鍵作用。她建議學生在創業初期靈活運用資金,考慮天使投資、群眾募資或創業補助金等多元方式來支持業務發展。更重要的是,她強調團隊合作的重要性,並鼓勵學生尋找志同道合的夥伴,共同面對創業挑戰,「成功的創業來自於有效的資源整合與團隊協作」。她提醒學生,資金規劃應以謹慎為原則,確保資源分配能支持業務發展的關鍵需求。

隨後Janice以自身創業經歷為例,表示創業不僅是一種解決問題的手段,更是實現個人價值與市場需求結合的過程。她鼓勵學生在商業計畫書中融入可持續性的理念,確保業務模式能夠長期運營。此外,她還分享如何從市場回饋中不斷改進產品或服務,以適應變化中的市場需求。她強調:「創業者應專注於自己的核心價值與使命,能幫助自己在面臨挑戰時,保持熱情與動力。」

在活動的最後,Janice向學生們強調,創業不僅是一場挑戰,更是一種探索自我與實現價值的過程。她勉勵學生勇敢面對困難,結合熱情、專業知識與創新思維,持續實踐創業理念,「只有找到真正熱愛的問題,並投入心力解決,才能激發出創業的持久動力。」

“Never give up”: Gilroy Hughdonald Middleton’s Embracing Resilience and Global Impact Through NCCU

“Never give up”: Gilroy Hughdonald Middleton’s Embracing Resilience and Global Impact Through NCCU

【Article by Han Pham】
Two decades ago, Gilroy Hughdonald Middleton graduated from NCCU's IMBA class of 2002, one of only two Belizean students to pursue an education in this distant land. Today, due to his influence and advocacy, nearly 50 Belizean students arrive in Taiwan each year, eager to embrace the possibilities that international education can bring. During his recent campus visit on June 11 as the recipient of the 4th Distinguished Taiwan Alumni Award, an award by the Taiwan Ministry of Education that recognizes the outstanding achievements of foreigners who have studied in Taiwan, enhances international exchanges, and inspires international students, Dr. Middleton shared his remarkable journey and the principles guiding him throughout his multifaceted career, including planning in three key areas: academics, career, and family.

As the room started to fill with students coming to hear about the sharing, Professor Jason Tsai, IMBA Director, was honored to introduce Gilroy Hughdonald Middleton. Hailing from Belize, a country located on Central America’s northeastern coast, Dr. Middleton arrived in Taiwan as a second-generation ICDF scholarship recipient. His journey began with curiosity and courage. Rather than following the path of many seeking education in the United States, he was drawn to Taiwan, fascinated by its academic rigor, vibrant culture, reputation for excellence in health care, welcoming community, and exceptional cuisine. During his time at NCCU, despite the language barrier, as his IMBA cohort consisted of 50% Taiwanese and 50% international students, the supportive environment in Taiwan made a lasting impression on Dr.Middleton. One particularly memorable moment came during the Lunar New Year when professors gave red envelopes to international students, a gesture that helped him connect more deeply with Taiwan’s cultural traditions. Upon returning to campus, he unexpectedly had a heartfelt reunion with an employee who had worked at NCCU for the past twenty years.

At NCCU's IMBA program, Dr. Middleton gained specialized knowledge that advanced his career and inspired him to contribute to the education system in his home country. Clarifying his aspiration to educate and inspire future leaders, he has played a vital role in the University of Belize's expansion, developing the MBA program and transforming undergraduate programs into specialized business fields, including accounting, business administration, finance, marketing, economics, and entrepreneurship. Moreover, he is working on a Master of Public Sector Management program to enhance his country's educational landscape further.

However, Dr. Middleton's time in Taiwan was not just an educational experience but a transformative journey that instilled in him a mindset of "never giving up." His encounter with SARS in Taiwan highlighted the importance of preparedness and adaptability—values he later applied at the University of Belize during the COVID-19 crisis. His studies in Taiwan taught him the power of perseverance and resilience, shaping his belief that everyone, regardless of their background, has the potential to make a positive impact. As Dr. Middleton shared, "I feel like I could do anything. The Taiwanese never give up, which inspired me to believe I could change the world."

In this spirit, Dr. Middleton joined the government’s efforts to tackle corruption and reform the country’s immigration system. "We developed and introduced the electronic passport system, which significantly improved security," he explains. This work was not only technical improvement but rooted in humanitarian efforts, including helping refugees and addressing migration issues in Central America. Dr. Middleton has also been deeply involved with the Refugee Eligibility Committee, processing amnesty applications for thousands of undocumented individuals and ensuring Belize remains a safe and welcoming destination. Under his leadership, Belize served as the interim chair of the Regional Migration Conference, where he collaborated with representatives from North and Central America to address migration and refugee protection challenges. Additionally, Dr. Middleton has been pivotal in advancing government sustainability initiatives in recent years, such as introducing electric buses to Belize City. This project underscores his ability to connect innovation with environmental responsibility, a value he embraced in Taiwan, where he witnessed firsthand the effectiveness of green technologies.

Taiwan's community-oriented mindset also profoundly shaped Middleton’s service and volunteerism approach. Inspired by volunteering at a bird park in Taiwan, Dr. Middleton has been actively involved with organizations in Belize, including the World Pediatric Project and the Belize Diabetes Association. This experience taught him the importance of giving back to society and nurturing future generations. His family has also inspired his work, as he strives to provide his children with the opportunities and resources he lacked growing up. His commitment to building generational wealth through land and sustainable agriculture reflects his dedication to creating long-term opportunities for his family.

Marking the end of his speech, Dr. Middleton encouraged students to approach their study abroad journey with a clear plan and an open mind. He again emphasized the importance of long-term and meticulous planning for every aspect of life. "Make the right choices and make sure you have your plan." he shared. "It's wonderful to come back after 20 years,". When bidding farewell to NCCU President Tsai-Yen Li, Dr. Middleton expressed his hope to return and promised potential collaboration opportunities between NCCU and the University of Belize.
