THE ROAD TO NON-DEPENDENCE

All Raizcorp programmes are designed to move the beneficiaries to the next level in their entrepreneurial journey (see the Raizcorp Enterprise Development Continuum below). Every Raizcorp programme is designed to reduce the level of dependence on the programme over time, thus creating a truly empowered entrepreneur. As an example, Raizcorp uses guiding instead of mentoring as an engagement methodology: while mentoring makes use of telling and doing, guiding assists the entrepreneur to identify options and their consequences, and the entrepreneur then chooses the direction and implements it.
