“…Most past measures quantifying innovation capability and output have looked at hard financial metrics that have proved to have little to no correlation to innovation output. E.g., the numbers of patents filed within a year or the amount R&D spending have not shown any significant relationship with an organization's ability to be innovative nor to make profits [11].…”

“…BMoE has identified ten behavioral patterns of successful entrepreneurs and, by using inductive and game-based teaching, the mindset behind the behaviors can be explored. The ten behaviors are; Pay It Forward, Story Telling, Friend or Foe, Seek Fairness, Plan to Fail, Diversify, Role Model, Believe, Good Enough, and Collaboration [11], [7]. BMoE also presents a teaching and learning method used to get engineers to explore their own mindset in comparison to these ten behaviors [8].…”

“…The BII is based on a combination of entrepreneurial mindset characteristics and research findings from the fields of psychology, business, and mathematical statistics. The BII deconstructs six of the ten traits identified with an entrepreneurial mindset in the Berkeley Method of Entrepreneruship [11]. It is these six personality traits that form the basis of the BII.…”

“…It has been applied to the leadership curriculum Technology Management, with positive outcome (Johnsson, Nilsson, Erlingsdottir, Nilsson, & Alsén, 2013). A similar approach has also been applied to education in Entrepreneurship (Sidhu, Singer, Suoranta, & Johnsson, 2014). Like leadership, entrepreneurship is a community with its own culture, and understanding the mindset of successful entrepreneurs is vital.…”

Leadership is important. Management is important. There are good reasons to conceptually and pedagogically separate the two in order to see some fundamental differences. In a cross disciplinary master program named Technology Management at Lund University, Sweden, the students are given opportunities to study and learn management, and however, what makes the program unique is its profound focus on leadership. The Technology Management program includes six courses, Teamwork and Leadership being one of them. In this course, theories and knowledge in leadership is learnt and discussed, this is then intertwined into the other courses in which it is practiced, and finally the outcome is brought back to the Teamwork and Leadership course for further discussions. In addition to this the students are writing daily reflections in a so called Learning Journal, over a one-year period, making it possible for the students to reflect over and thereby shape their own leadership style and mindset. Course evaluations and placement reports indicates that the students learning about theories, practice and mindset related to leadership is ranked as the most valuable learning from their entire educational curricula/period.
