If you are a leader, role model, coach, mentor, advisor or someone who recognizes the gifts in another person and inspires them to greatness, at Acton we believe you are a teacher. If you are someone who longs to change the world in a profound way, someone who has the courage to find your most precious gifts and the dedication to master a discipline, at Acton we believe you are an aspiring entrepreneur. The Acton Foundation serves both teachers and aspiring entrepreneurs. We attract, train and inspire master teachers, equipping them with the courses and learning tools they need to help aspiring entrepreneurs. Our Advising and Mentoring Guides offer “teachers” ways to be more intentional and effective in assisting those looking for career advice and searching for their calling. Our Stars & Steppingstones and Job Search Guides offer “aspiring entrepreneurs” a path to discover their calling and to live a life of meaning. Our case-based entrepreneurship curriculum allows both teachers and aspiring entrepreneurs to step into the shoes of real entrepreneurs and learn how to make the tough calls required for success. The curriculum is taught in its entirety at the Acton School of Business, an intensive one-year MBA program in Austin, Texas, taught exclusively by practicing entrepreneurs. The Princeton Review ranks Acton as one of the “Best MBA Classroom Experiences” in the country and, for the fourth year in a row, ranks Acton’s teachers among the top five business faculties in the nation.
