Experiences

Thanks to MINN I believe that close collaboration and intrapreneurial attitude will transform our businesses and ways of working. MINN taught me the impor- tance of researching and asking why: taking time to find real problems to come uo with the right answers. Both in Service Design as well as cultural change projects. Is a learning field where you can share ideas, experiment and develop with the hep of feedback. Then you can transfer best practices to your team and organisation

MINN is a learning journey where you will find an organic growth from the experience. Theories, lessons and experiences will be mixed in a natural way. There, you will find a new way to understand yourself and others, in order to lead yourself and others. Always helped by the power of a team.

For me MINN has been a journey to find my secret “super power”, all of us have at least one. It’s simple but not easy. I’ve cried. I’ve laughed. I’ve felt alive each sec- ond of my life, my only life. Now, together with you, I’m ready to transform my real- ity creating value and being the change we want to see in the world.

MINN is the opportunity to make real projects you believe on. It’s the oppor- tunity to acquire a knowledge available in all aspects of your life; professional, social, personal... It’s the platform to make your projects grow to another level. Through MINN you are able to spread the seeds of change to make real the world you want to live in. And to do that, it’s not necessary to be an extraor- dinary guy, just a person belonging to a team with the same dream.

MINN has been for me an incredible learning journey that transforms completely the way I see the world and how I interact with others. MINN is always taking be out of my comfort zone, always challenging me to create new things, to impact in my organization by intrapreneurial actions. Taking risks to obtain results, because in MINN “we want results!”. MINN transformed my view of theam performing and boosted my social innovation hidden interest. MINN inspired me to inspire others to act.

MINN/ Team Academy is a radical team learning process to change the organizations from the action.

MINN helped us to develop a new product concept understanding better the environment and the new market trends. Going through a Collaborative Design open process with different agents we had a wider view and insights to design taking into account the real user needs and aspirations.

MINN is a hard kick in the ass to get you moving! More than just learning is a life changing experience.

Further Information

Finnish Model Our leaning method has been imported from Tiimiakatemia, the Entrepreneurship Centre of Excellence of the JAMK University of Applied Sciences in Jyväskylä, Finland. They have more than 20 years of experience promoting team entrepreneurship.

Working in teams we learn by doing the skills and abilities we need to create and develop new projects and for being entrepreneurs. You work, share goals, ideas, thoughts, experiences and learning with your teammates, developing together yourselves and the whole company.The outcome of the process is that your future learning won’t be conditioned to contact expert teacher and you will learn mainly from your teammates.

Team learning

The key to personal development and entrepreneurship is constant interaction with the real world: creating a real company and working with real clients on real projects. In Mondragon Team Academy any of the learners is part of a real company. Being part of a real company is an important instrument for entrepreneurs because it allows you to do real projects and being in a real world.The learners take the lead creating team companies, meanwhile the team coach primarily supports and promotes the process rather than managing it.

Real companies

The best way for being entrepreneur is to develop your ideas and skills in those topics close to your passion. When you are working to become true your passion you will be able not to give up and fulfill your dreams.

As a learner when you are focused on your passion you will be happy to read as much as possible about it, to attend as much events related to the topic as possible, to contact as much companies as possible and being able to contact easily with new customers. Your courage will increase and your self-confidence will rise with each business project.

Passion- learner

Being part of Mondragon Team Academy means to be global citizen and to understand we are living in a connected world which we belong to. The companies need professional innovators with a global vision. All learners in Mondragon Team Academy experience some kind of learning journeys in any of their programs, so we undertake three international learning journeys. In all the learning journeys the learners develop big understanding of different business realities and models that are working in those environments, strengthen their international network and skills as well as learn from the different cultural reality as a whole.
