Junior Business Society is one of the enrichment programs at BINUS SCHOOL, designed to introduce business skills to students. The program answers questions about how future youths can compete in the increasingly demanding business world. 

Addressing the students as “young entrepreneurs”, the Junior Business Society introduces various business skills through hands-on programs. For example, in September, the Junior Business Society held a four-day pop-up market where students applied the skills they learned to run small stalls.

Students sold popular street food, snacks in cute packaging, toys, accessories, baked goods, and many more during the event. They also created and decorated the stalls and served guests in real transactions. At the end of the event, students counted their profits and donated them to charity.

Through such events, the Junior Business Society practiced various business-related skills they had learned.

BINUS SCHOOL Simprug believes that brilliant future generations must be prepared with real-life skills, especially if they want to start a business or become a professional.

At Junior Business Society, students learned the basics of important skills that would support their future aspirations and professional goals. They include:

• Valuing Hard Work

Students can learn to appreciate the hard work and perseverance that are needed in the professional and business worlds. They have to contribute equally to various tasks necessary to achieve their goals, such as the pop-up market for charity.

• Collaboration

Students are encouraged to emphasize partnership and collaboration in achieving their goals. They must learn how to communicate, relay messages clearly and meaningfully, and listen to everyone’s ideas and opinions. 

Collaboration also means lessons in delegating tasks and making sure that everyone achieves their shared goals. This way, students will learn about working with others in various situations as they enter the business or professional world.

• Business Planning

During various events, members of the Junior Business Society must make their business plans. The details include products to sell, budgets, pricing, and other important business aspects. This way, students learn about all the important elements of starting a business.

• Quality Control

Students are encouraged to perform quality control on the goods they sell. From food to toys and accessories, students need to pay attention to physical conditions, food safety and handling, and other important elements.

• Customer and Community Service

Students can learn how to communicate effectively with customers and fellow students. It will allow them to foster soft skills and prepare them for various public roles in the future. They can also learn basic customer service principles while honing their social skills.

The Junior Business Society activities also encourage students to contribute more to the community. Many activities, such as business role-play through the pop-up market, are created with charity as one of its goals. It will teach students the importance of giving back to the community and nurturing their empathy.

By nourishing and teaching all these skills to students, the Junior Business Society creates new generations with good skills to face the future. Students will understand the basic business skills that allow them to develop their dreams and aspirations.
