PRESENTING THE MODULE 3 MENTOR
Business Model Canvas

The Module 3 introduces the Business Model Canvas (BMC) as a visual tool for the mentees to comprehensively map out their business models and to draw strategies therefrom. The mentees are presented with the BMC Template for them to fill in based on their existing business operations. The same templates are to be updated by the individual mentees after each of the modules in Phase 2 as they gain additional insights and understanding of the various segments of business management that are all incorporated in the BMC. The mentees, likewise, are guided to optimize the BMCs of their respective enterprises as a vital reference for the preparation of their Business Improvement Plans.
