Teaching activity

Cash is King… Profit is Prince!

A great starter activity taken from James Watts, co-founder of BrewDog and author of “Business for Punks”. A simple table and activity that helps to demonstrate to students the importance of cash over profit, and the problems that can occur when a business grows too quickly.
