To address the themes presented in this Module a series of activities were created with the aim of developing and strengthening two types of power in young people: inter- and intra-personal power.
Intrapersonal development is basically the act of knowing oneself, one's emotions and abilities, being able to identify one's strengths and what needs to be improved. It is how you see yourself in the world, how you perceive yourself, and how you react to the most diverse situations. It is the constant search for self-knowledge, emotional self-control and self-esteem.
The interpersonal relationship, on the other hand, relates to the relationship with the people in your social environment, family members, colleagues and friends. This relationship influences the way you deal with your colleagues, bosses, superiors, customers and all those involved in the work environment.
The better your self-knowledge and the management of your emotions, the better your relationships with other people will be.
Thus, three inter-personal and three intra-personal powers were selected as the focus of the Manual's activities. Throughout the Human Development Course, the young person will have the opportunity to discover and strengthen each of these powers.
INTRAPERSONAL POWERS Emotional Ability - the ability to recognize and evaluate your own and others' emotions, as well as the ability to deal with them. Self-knowledge - the ability to know yourself better, to identify your talents, to be able to make better choices. Motivation at Work - the ability of the individual to identify what inspires him/her, and to remain motivated to perform the tasks he/she has chosen.
INTERPERSONAL POWERS Concentration - the ability to keep attention on an activity you are doing, or on an objective, leaving distractions aside. Communication - the ability to clearly receive and transmit information, experiences, feelings and ideas. Teamwork - the ability to collaborate and communicate effectively with others to accomplish planned tasks and find solutions.

Examples of Entrepreneurs
Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 1
Sazia Sousa
Born in the city of Beira, Sazia is the founder and General
Manager of Technoplus1, a company providing services and
computer solutions. She studied computer science and, in
2010, she participated as a volunteer in a project financed
by the German cooperation for installing a computer
network in a public school in Beira. This experience offered
her the opportunity for a trip to Germany where she could
deal with various areas, from technology to the environment. When she
returned home, she had no job, so she decided to work independently. She
contacted her former colleagues and progressively gained more work, from
private clients to companies. When she was 23-year-old, she registered
her company, to which she devoted herself wholeheartedly. Today she has
two offices in Maputo and Beira, an online store, represents more than 6
international brands, employs 14 people and provides services throughout
the country. Sázia believes that access to technology is important for access
to employment and therefore gives computer classes on a voluntary basis
at a Community School in Massaca, Boane District.
Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 2
Dita Mpfumo
As a child, Dita dreamed of being a business woman and working on
her own. She says that she always liked challenges and never stopped
when difficulties appeared because she likes to overcome them herself.
At the school where she studied, she began to follow her dream, selling
women's accessories to her colleagues. In 2007 she decided to take a
risk and together with a friend began to prepare Christmas baskets with
Mozambican products such as matoritori (a candy made with coconut) and
a sweet made with cassava. In the first two months they sold about 1.300
baskets. With the amount collected, she created the company "Kussema
Limitada", dedicated to the management of canteens, supply of uniforms
and protective material, office cleaning services and event management
and production4. Today, she runs a small business called “taXo Express”
that makes and distributes meals for workers at affordable prices.

Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 3
Paulino Uiaene
Born in Inhambane, having no father and raised by his
grandmother, he started attending school when he was
11-year-old. When he moved to Maputo to study, he
lived in the Maxaquene neighborhood and did a little of
everything. After the floods of 2000 the neighborhood
was full of garbage. He had the initiative to clean the
backyards and latrines of the houses, since the trucks of
the Municipalitycould not enter the neighborhood. He wanted to see
the neighborhood clean and at the same time give jobs to people and
earn some money. In 2004 he had the first contract for refuse collection
with the municipality. Today, after 16 years, the business has 30 "txovas",
31 employees and a van that removes garbage for businesses and hotels
in the center of the city.
Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 4
Ana Bela dos Reis Borges5
Mozambique's 'queen of chickens' started with two
strategically placed stands and grew her investment brick
by brick. Today she has a company with 20 thousand
poultry (chickens). Ana Bela has plans to produce 200
thousand chickens every 45 days, which may allow people
to buy local chickens at reasonable prices.
As we can see, Ana Bela has a double mission: on one hand,
of course, to be successful in her business and make profits to support
her family; on the other, she wants to ensure that people have access to
local products with more reasonable prices.

Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 5
Claudio Ferrão
Cláudio Ferrão, has a degree in Administration and
Management. He created a social enterprise called “Orèra
Moçambique”, with the main purpose of recycling waste
discarded in the environment (tires, drums and pallets),
transforming it into furniture, helping to fight against
environmental pollution.
He is an agent of change who has always created innovative
projects, and is interested in influencing young people.
Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 6
UX was created in 2011-2012 focused on the development of
online technologies.
For several years its founders have accumulated technical skills in the
field of computer technology, created a network of contacts and thus
managed to build a business that today is profitable. The focus of the
company is the creation of websites and management of social networks,
and so they have developed innovative programs with profit and social
purposes, such as the "Emprego" project and the "Biscate" project:
• Emprego Project - Largest formal job search website in Mozambique;
• BISCATE Project – Website for the recruitment of professionals in the
informal sector, for example: electricians, painters, locksmiths.

Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 7
Matateu Ubisse
He studied computer science and started developing
applications, portals, websites and vehicle trackers.
He started working on the implementation of
technologies in specific organizations in a local context, falling in love
with Marketing. Today Matateu has his own Marketing and Social Media
agency, "Signus".
Example of an Entrepreneur: Card 8
Claude Champier
Claude always had the dream of becoming an entrepreneur.
When he was 12 years old, he began to learn the programming
language. When he was 16 years old, he developed the
"FIKADIKA" project, the first Mozambican virtual tour guide
and earned his first professional internship. At 18 years old
he founded “Champier, Limitada”, a company operating in
the Information and Communication Technologies area,
offering several innovative products for the Mozambican market.
Claude created an application for a large freight and shipping company
in Africa, replacing various forms and resulting in the elimination of 100%
paper usage within the company.
* KEY POINTS *All these examples of entrepreneurs show that success does not happen
overnight. On the contrary, success is the result of a long process, of hard
work, the ability to deal with risk and failure, and acting in order to not lose
the trust of the people who encouraged and financed the project.

What do you see?
Duration Materiais
Steps
• Ask participants to form 6 groups of 4 people;
• Provide each group with a set of pictures. Ask them to look and focus on the image from a distance then answer:
What they see in each image?
Did they all see the same thing?
What did this exercise show?
Notes to the facilitator(s)Some participants will be quicker to see the additional images; others may
not see all images. So, we can see the same picture and the same situation
in different ways: some people see a business opportunity where others
do not.
Answers to pictures:
Image 1: There are 3 tigers in this picture, one on the ground, one between
the branches of the trees and another on the tree trunk.
Image 2: In this image, some people may see a skull, others a lamp, and
others see both.
Image 3: In this image, some people may see a dog, others a cloth and
others see both.

* KEY POINTS *YOU CAN ALSO BE AN ENTREPRENEUR
Being an Entrepreneur is not just about creating a business. It also
means having a set of attitudes and characteristics that makes you and
entrepreneur in all fields of life: at home, at school, in the neighborhood, in
a business or company or organization in which you work.
You can also be an entrepreneur if you observe the following aspects:
You have a plan for the future:
You have the vision for your future, personal and business goals and, most
important, you fight to implement your dreams.
You know how to make decisions:
You feel safe, you know how to make the right decisions at the right
time, especially in times of difficulty. In addition to making decisions, you
implement actions quickly.
You know how to take advantage of opportunities to the fullest:
Most people think that entrepreneurs have good ideas because they are
lucky. For you, good ideas are created from things that everyone can see, but
few can transform in opportunities. You are an identifier of opportunities,
curious, creative and attentive to what is around you, because you know
that your success increases if you get more information and knowledge.
You make the difference:
You transform an idea into a product or service that works, you think of an
innovation that does not exist in the market and attract customers.
You are determined and dynamic:
You implement your projects with commitment, you overcome obstacles
with a huge desire to "do things" and "make things happen".

You dedicate yourself to business 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You are a
hard worker and you find the energy to continue, despite the challenges.
You are optimistic and passionate about what you do:
You love your work, which gives you energy and keeps you motivated and
determined. You are the best seller of your business.
You are a leader and manager of teams:
For you, leading is normal and you feel comfortable in that position. You
are respected by your colleagues, because you know how to value them
and reward them, creating a strong team around you.
You are well-connected:
You have the ability to build a network of contacts between customers,
suppliers and partners that will help you in your business.
You Plan, you Plan, you Plan:
You know the importance of planning, to use the resources you have, and
to improve your business.
You have knowledge:
You are curious and are always learning. You know that the more
knowledge you have, the more your success.
You take risks:
It is a well-known characteristic of entrepreneurs. Some of the things
you do have risks, but they were planned by you. You know that this risk
can create new opportunities.
You help the society:
When the entrepreneur's business helps the community, for example:
it creates jobs, solves a problem and improves people's lives, we can say
that this is a Social Enterprise.

How did you feel about doing this activity?
What surprised you?
• Show the movie 'One by One' (6 min);

* KEY POINTS *The "SWOT" analysis is a tool that helps to make a diagnosis of a company
or a business: it indicates the positive points, the points to be improved, the
chances of growth and the possible threats.
Strengths and Weaknesses are about the internal environment and what
can be controlled by people; Opportunities and Threats concern the external
environment, which is totally out of our control, but we must know to be
able to minimize the effects of the Threats and take better advantage of
Opportunities.

Notes to the facilitator(s)Remind the innovative entrepreneurs of what they saw in Activity 1 like
Matateu Ubisse, Claude Champier and Dita Pfumo, who created new markets
and new products. Entrepreneurs like them are always on the lookout for
new opportunities, whether to grow their business or start a new business.
So, we must be attentive to the environment in the community.
Entrepreneurs identify and take advantage of opportunities arising from:
New markets – Changes in consumer habits. Example: use of hair extensions,
use of bicycle to be faster during relocation.
New products and technologies – They make life easier for people and are
linked to new ways of delivering services. Example: Transfer money by phone,
Online/Facebook sales (clothing, accessories), home delivery of food.
* KEY POINTS *Innovation means novelty or renewal. Entrepreneurs who innovate are in
a position of advantage over others. Innovations are important because
they attract new customers, increase incomes, gain new partnerships and
promote new knowledge. Innovation is not a trend or a fashion, the proof
of this is that for millions of years the Human Being has made innovations.
A good business idea should
ü Be simple de explicar e de implementar;
ü Resolve daily needs, como comer, beber, ter acesso a água, transporte;
ü Interest many people, i.e., many people want to buy this product or service.

Market Segmentation
Duration Materials
Steps
STEP 1
• Have participants form 6 groups and distribute a copy of the triangle to each group;
• Ask them to observe the picture carefully. Then ask:
How many triangles they can see?
Do they all have the same size?
Are all the triangles in the same place?
• Then ask them to paint the different triangles with different colours and finally count the triangles of the same colour and size;
STEP 2
• Ask two groups to get together, make a comparison of their triangles, and answer:
Have they identified the same number of triangles, of the same colour and size?
What type of comparison can be made between these triangles and the potential customer market?

Notes to the facilitator(s) In this exercise there is no correct number of triangles: the importance is to
realize that there are different types of markets.
The larger triangle represents the total market, while the smaller triangles
represent the different market types.
For example, telephones have a total market represented by the large
triangle. Within the telephones market there are different market segments:
the market for people who like Smartphones and have the capacity to
purchase this product; and the market of people who prefer simple mobile
phones.
Another example is the shoe market which is very wide and segmented
because all people need to walk with shoes. However, some of them like and
have the purchasing power to buy branded shoes, others prefer sneakers, and
others need shoes to go to school. There are also specific market segments
for high-heeled shoes, flat shoes, orthopedic shoes, children's shoes, shoes
for men, shoes for women and so on.
How many triangles are within the triangle?

What is a Business Plan?
A Business Plan is a written document that describes in detail the characteristics of
a business and how to achieve its objectives.
A Business Plan is generally used for new businesses or products.
A Business Plan should contain elements related to the commercial, financial and
operational areas of a business.
Purpose of a Business Plan
The purpose of a Business Plan is to demonstrate the feasibility of the business in
order to convince financers and partners to invest in it. For this purpose, the plan
must contain:
The idea of the entrepreneur = What will I do?
The business innovation = How is my idea different from what others do?
The feasibility of the business = How will my idea bring profitability/money?
Elements of a Business Plan
A Business Plan is comprised of eight main elements, namely:
1. Executive Summary
2. Business Description
3. Description of Products and Services
4. Marketing & Sales Plan
5. Operational Plan
6. Management Team
7. Business Development and Growth
8. Financial Statement

1. Executive Summary - Summary of one or two pages regarding the entire Business
Plan. It is recommended to write the executive summary after completing all the
details within the plan itself.
2. Business Description - This section is the backbone of your Business Plan and will
establish the basis for the information to be included in the following parts of the
plan. This section includes:
The name and logo of the business, an image representing the product or service.
The description of the services to be provided and what human needs or problems will be solved.
3. Description of Products and Services - A product is something I sell, for example,
mango candy. A service is a job that I do, something that I create, for example,
garbage collection, cleaning of pits, hairdressing, carpentry.
The product or service must be explained in a clear way, so that everyone can
understand what the business is going to do and identify what makes that product
or service unique.
4. Marketing & Sales Plan - In this section you need to include information about:
Customers – These are the people or companies that will have access to the product or service and pay for it. Most businesses fail because entrepreneurs do not know who will buy their product or service, thinking to everyone, but it is not true! We need to group customers into smaller groups according to their characteristics. The characteristics can be where they live, where they eat, what they eat, what they wear, age range, level of income, etc
Competitors – What products and services other businesses offer that are the same or similar to mine. Competitors fight for the same customers. The competitors are not only those who sell solutions like ours (i.e. orange juice and grape soda). The competitors are all those who try to solve the same problem as us, because the customer can always choose the solution (example: I can my quench thirst with water or orange juice). Thus, all businesses have competitors, and all competitors have their strengths and weaknesses. We need to think about how we are going to beat our competitors, using our strengths and overcoming their weaknesses.

Price – Amount in cash that the customer must pay to have a product or service. The price of the product must be determined based on the overhead costs. For example, in a hairdressing business, you must know the costs of space rent, salaries, purchase of products (shampoo and hair conditioner for example). Given the costs, what are the pricing options you should practice? Let's see an example in the table below:
Fixed monthly costs Items Value in Meticais
Rent of space, water and power 2.000,00
Salary of the hairdresser 6.000,00
Products 1.000,00
Unforeseen evets 1.000,00
Total 10.000
If the hairdresser's fixed costs are 10.000 Meticais it means that, in order to cover
fixed costs, this hairdresser must have incomes of at least for 10.000 per month.
If he/she works 5 days a week (20 days a month) and considers that will have two
customers per day for a total of forty customers per month, he/she will need to
charge at least 250,00 Meticais per customer (10.000,00 Meticais/40 clients).
Considering three customers a day, making a total of 60 customers per month, he/
she will have to charge at least 167,00 Meticais per customer.
Considering four customers per day, a total of 80 customer per month, he/she will
have to charge at least 127,00 Meticais per customer.
If incomes are greater than costs, there will be profit that can be invested in improving
business conditions to attract more customers.
Regarding the price, it is necessary to consider the competition and the value to
the customer. What are the pricing options practiced by other hairdressers in the
neighbourhood and what services do they offer?
How much does the customer value the product or the service? Is he/she available
to pay a lot? If you were your own customer, would you be ready to pay this price for
the same service?

Points of Sale – Place where the business will occur. The entrepreneur must think about how he/she will deliver products/services to customers. Please, note not every business needs a physical space. Some examples and distribution strategies: The hairdresser may have a salon or may go and cut hair at the clients' homes; Distribution of bottled water can be through partners such as cafes, restaurants, hotels. Clothes can be sold online, by catalogue, door-to-door, etc.
Communication – How will you make your business (products or services) known to customers? You must create ways to give customers a "push", so that they try it for the first time, and then continue to buy your products and services. Some examples of "pushing" customers to experience for the first time:
– Give the customer a "reward": "50% discount during the opening month!
– Reduce the customer’s risk: "If you do not get satisfied, you will not pay!"
– Give the customer the chance to test: "Test a sample of our product for free"
If we help customers to remember us, they are likely to do more business with us. Some ideas to create "habits" in customers and make them faithful:
– Promotions that attract attention and lead to buy more: take 2 and pay only 1!
– Delivery of awards to those who buy: card that offers a product after 5 purchases
– Don’t lose contact with customers: send an SMS on their birthday and on Family Day for example.
Market Test – A good business has several people interested in paying for the product/service. There are some not expensive tests that should be done before starting a business, such as: observing the community, interviewing competitors and interviewing potential clients.

5. Operational Plan - The purpose of this section is to help the entrepreneur to
describe the administrative side of their business, including:
Office location:
The necessary staff;
Equipment available and to be used;
Overheads and other costs;
Network of suppliers - where to buy the material and raw material needed to produce the product or provide the service;
Credit policies - payment modalities for customers: cash; instalments; with conditions.
Returning to the example of the hairdresser business:
• The shop will be in the neighbourhood X
• We need a receptionist to make appointments and cleaning
• We need scissors, hair conditioners, shampoos, mirrors, chairs, electricity
• We need to pay rent, electricity and suppliers of products and equipment
• We will buy the products in large quantities
• We need to pay the vendor at the time of purchase, or we can have an account and pay at the end of the month
• We need to receive money from customers immediately after service delivery, no vouchers will be accepted
6. Management Team - The entrepreneur must think about whether he/she is the
ideal person to implement the business. Do you have the right motivation? Do
you have the necessary knowledge? Do you have the necessary skills? If the
entrepreneur is not 100% sure to be the answer to these questions, he/she should
find a good team or good partners. A very important part of any business is the
team, to balance the entrepreneur's competencies. Going back to the example of
the hairdresser: I have a passion for taking care of people's hair and my sister has
the passion and the skill to paint nails. We can work together and open a salon.
However, none of us has management competence. In this case, there are two
alternatives: either you must learn, or you should employ a person with this ability.

7. Business Development and Growth - At this stage you can dream a little, design
your business and think big. Development and growth are a necessary part of the
business to remain competitive. It is the vision of what the entrepreneur wants to
achieve in the next three to five years. Returning to the example of the hairdresser:
after three years, our salon will be able to cut hair for men and women, take care of
the nails and do massage. In five years, we will open two more branches in the city.
8. Financial Statement - To understand if a business is successful, it is necessary
to know and write all the foreseen outgoing expenses and incoming capital for
each month. On one side there are the cash incomes, on the other there are the
outgoing expenses, the difference will be the profit, according to the example of
the financial summary of the hairdresser:
Cash Incomes - Month 1
Funding 8,300 Meticais
Personal Funds 2,700 Meticais
Customer Payment 11,000 Meticais
Total entries 22,000 Meticias
Cash Outgoing - Month 1
Space Rental + Water + Energy 2,000 Meticais
Hairdresser's salary 6,000 Meticais
Products 1,000 Meticais
Extras 1,000 Meticais
Purchase of other materials 10,000 Meticias
Taxes 1,700 Meticais
Total entries 21,700 Meticais

Notes to the facilitator(s)
In this exercise it is important to evaluate some personal skills such as: the power of initiative, teamwork and argumentation.
It is not important that groups put the steps in the same order. The participants' reasoning ability and their arguments for choosing a particular sequence should be evaluated.
Use the definition of a Business Plan and the Elements of a Business Plan in the introduction to Section 5.

* KEY POINTS *What is a ‘PITCH’?
“PITCH” is an English word that has been used to define a presentation with a maximum duration of 3 to 5 minutes. The entrepreneur has to 'sell' his idea and arouse the interest of the financer during this time, so he/she should focus on:
The problem that the business intends to solve;
The solution to the problem, i.e., the product or service that the business will offer;
Who are the customers, the size of the market;
The innovation that distinguishes this business from other businesses already on the market;
The competencies of the entrepreneur or the team to implement the business;
The value of the business, the capital needed and where you will find that value.
Tips for making a good ‘PITCH’
Do not make a speech - treat the 'PITCH' as a conversation, spontaneously, making everyone feel they are having a good conversation with you.
Do not use difficult words - everyone in the room should understand what you are saying.
Use personal stories to touch the public - for example, the case of entrepreneur Paulino Uiaene who started cleaning latrines and collecting garbage because he lived in a neighborhood affected by floods, full of garbage that put his health and that of others at risk.
Show enthusiasm - your PITCH should let the financers feel excited to bet on your business idea.
Practice and repeat your 'PITCH' at home.

Dear young entrepreneur,There are many people who dreamed of being entrepreneurs or even turning their ideas into a real business.
Very few have managed to achieve this important step.
Starting and building a successful business is a journey of commitment, focus and long hours of hard work.
There will be days when your customers, employees, suppliers, family members or even the government will not be around to give you support and courage when you need it most. When that time comes, you will have to seek courage and energy in yourself.
As an entrepreneur, your daily habits need to change, you’ll need to leave temporary pleasures for long-term gains.
To build a successful business, you need to maintain discipline in how you manage your time, your priorities, your relationships, how you handle money, how you take care of your health, how you serve your clients and how you take on leadership.
Being an entrepreneur is being able to make a difference. As an entrepreneur, you are not only expected to change the way you think, but also what you think.
Always remember that you are not the only one in the market. There are many others who compete for the same customers. In business language they are called competitors.
So, you should be constantly on the lookout for better ways to treat and persuade customers and attract them to your product. Learn from your competitors, ask questions, stay tuned to the "world" around you.
Be brave, angry and ready to face any fear that comes. When you are afraid, remember that all entrepreneurs experienced fear, but overcome it with courage and determination.
Keep focus and positive thinking. Be honest with yourself, and never in any moment lose sight of your business.
