Are You An Entrepreneur?

photos_blog_entrepreneurshirt.gifSmallBusinessCEO: What the definition of an entrepreneur is. Is it a role, an attitude or a title?
Webster’s Collegiate Dictionary defines it as: “On who assumes the risk and management of a business.”
That is no help. If I am a functional manager in a business, say a Sales VP, I am surely managing a part of the business and I am taking a risk with my career, my employees and peers. Does that make me an entrepreneur?
Maybe it is all of the above, a role, an attitude and a title.
Entrepreneur seems to be the hottest buzzword going around, the hero, the savior of economies worldwide. How do we spot one when we see one? How do we spot youngsters and support them in their journey to business success?

One reply on “Are You An Entrepreneur?”

An entrepreneur is one who takes risks and takes advantage of the opportunities around him to create a business venture.
It’s not easy to be one, I guess.
