Deborah Thomas Scholarship Award
Since I was young, I’ve always been fascinated by business and entrepreneurship. I’ve always believed in the power of business to create real, positive change in society. The concept of starting my own business, creating something meaningful, and positively impacting the world has always motivated me.
My passion for business and entrepreneurship grew as I went through school and pursued various jobs. I've always wanted to pursue a career in management and entrepreneurship, aiming to positively impact the world by assisting others. To achieve my objectives, I opted to advance my business management education to acquire the requisite knowledge and skills. I’m drawn to business and entrepreneurship because I believe they can be used to promote real change in the world. My goal is to utilize my abilities in order to make a positive impact and contribute towards the betterment of the world. That’s why I have set my sights on creating a more equitable and sustainable future for all.
The state of our economy is closely tied to the well-being of our planet and communities. We need businesses and entrepreneurs prioritizing sustainability, economic empowerment, and community development. My goal is to be one of those entrepreneurs.
Starting new businesses can enhance people's well-being and contribute to our planet's sustainability. I’m interested in creating sustainably made and ethically sourced products and promoting local businesses. This would ensure that the economic benefits of my ventures would be shared equitably and encourage vibrant and healthy communities.
Additionally, marketing and branding can promote positive values and behaviors among consumers. We can constructively influence consumer behavior by working with businesses to build strong, ethical brands and advertising campaigns. I aim to build brands that prioritize sustainability and social justice, creating demand for eco-friendly and socially responsible products.
Supporting entrepreneurship involves prioritizing education as a crucial component. Business education is often seen as a way to teach practical skills, and while that’s undoubtedly a part of it, I believe that business education can also teach values. As such, I’m passionate about helping others better understand the theoretical and ethical underpinnings of entrepreneurship, in addition to practical skills. I aim to become an educator in the business field and help others understand the potential for businesses and entrepreneurship to drive real social change.
I know that these goals won’t be easy to achieve. They will require dedication and an ability to navigate complex supply chains and business environments. But I feel that I’m up to the challenge. I’ve already started on a path toward achieving my goal by pursuing my education in business management. I’m gaining knowledge and experience in entrepreneurship, marketing, branding, and more through online courses and other educational resources. I’m confident that this education, combined with my passion and commitment, will enable me to succeed.
Ultimately, my goal isn’t just to create an economically viable business. It’s to make a company that uplifts people and the planet. Building businesses with a social conscience benefits society and the business's bottom line. Customers increasingly seek and reward businesses that share their values and aspire to create a better world.
My ultimate goal is to become a pioneer in sustainable and socially responsible entrepreneurship. I aim to create a world where entrepreneurship is not solely focused on generating profits but also on enhancing people's lives. By pursuing my goals, I’m following a dream, driving change, and tangibly improving the world.
