Astuce : avant de répondre, listez vos ressources sur des post-its, puis croisez-les deux par deux pour générer des combinaisons non évidentes. Variante utile : remplacez « startup » par « projet entrepreneurial ou intrapreneurial » pour l’appliquer à une reconversion ou un lancement rapide avec les moyens du bord.
