Meet the RECCO Crew: Optimism

Meet The RECCO Crew is an illustrated book series that turns the abstract entrepreneurship concepts of Resilience, Empathy, Collaboration, Creativity and Optimism into fun cartoon characters. This makes it easier for children to grasp and relate to these important entrepreneurship skills.

Entrepreneurial skills are not just for starting new businesses. They help people try new things, solve complex problems, and work well with others to create novel solutions. In our current fast-changing world that requires constant innovation and adaptation, entrepreneurial skills are increasingly becoming life skills for all young people.

This book is all about Optimism, a core skill to have when trying something new. Why? Because when we try something new and things do not go perfectly, we need to believe that eventually our effort will pay off. So, Optimism in entrepreneurship is the ability to see mistakes and failure as something limited to the here and now. It is a way of thinking that makes us expect good things eventually.
