WHAT MAKES AN ENTREPRENEUR?

The Ten D’s (1)Dream

– Entrepreneurs have a vision of what the future could be like for them and their business. And, more importantly, they have the ability to implement their dreams.

Decisiveness– They don't procrastinate. They make decisions swiftly. Their swiftness is a key

factor in their success.Doers

– Once they decide on a course of action, they implement it as quickly as possible.

Determination– They implement their ventures with total commitment. They seldom give up,

even when confronted by obstacles that seem insurmountable. Dedication

– They are totally dedicated to their business, sometimes at considerable cost to their relationships with their friends and families. They work tirelessly. Twelve-hour days, and seven-day work weeks are not uncommon when an entrepreneur is striving to get a business off the ground.

Page 16: 1

The Ten D’s (2)Devotion

– Entrepreneurs love what they do. It is that love that sustains them when the going gets tough. And it is love of their product or service that makes them so effective at selling it.

Details– It is said that the devil resides in the details. That is never more true than in

starting and growing a business. The entrepreneur must be on top of the critical details.

Destiny – They want to be in charge of their own destiny rather than dependent on an

employer.D-Marks

– Getting rich is not the prime motivator of entrepreneurs. Money is more a measure of their success. They assume that if they are successful they will be rewarded.

Distribute– Entrepreneurs distribute the ownership of their business with key employees

who are critical to the success of the business.

Three Aspects of Entrepreneurship1. The identification/recognition of market

opportunity and the generation of a business idea (product or service) to address the opportunity.

2. The marshalling and commitment of resources in the face of risk to pursue the opportunity

3. The creation of an operating business organization to implement the opportunity-motivated business

Page 22: 1

Successful EntrepreneursAccording to the Small Business Administration, successful

entrepreneurs have five characteristics:1. Drive, which is defined as the most important attribute. Entrepreneurs

can expect long hours, high stress and endless problems, as they launch a new business.

2. Thinking Ability, or the characteristic that encompasses creativity, critical thinking, analytical abilities and originality.

3. Aptitude for Human Relations. This characteristic recognizes the importance of the ability to motivate employees, sell customers, negotiate with suppliers and convince lenders. Personality plays a big part in success in this area.

4. Communication Skills, or the ability to make yourself understood.5. Technical Ability speaks to the need of the entrepreneur to know their

product and their market. They must consider the long- and short-term implications of their decisions, their strengths and weaknesses, and their competition. In short, they need strategic management skills.

The field of Entrepreneurship“The scholarly examination of how, by whom, and with what

effects opportunities to create future goods and services are discovered, evaluated and exploited.

Consequently the field involves the study of sources of opportunities; the process of discovery, evaluation and exploitation of opportunities; and the set of individuals who discover, evaluate and exploit them”

Competition has a new meaningCompetition as positioning (outside-in)Competition as dominating (inside-out)Competition as innovating

What Information are Entrepreneurs Missing?

Research has identified four areas where entrepreneurial information is typically incomplete:

1. Risk in the form of financial return to investors2. Complexity -- the number of inputs with which a business must

deal 3. Ignorance -- what the entrepreneur doesn’t know that he

doesn’t know4. Indeterminism – not knowing how an entrepreneur’s actions

will affect the outcome
