3 forces drive entrepreneurs:
- Entrepreneurs have this burning feeling inside them…a Need To Achieve something. I describe it as ‘a wanting’.
- Entrepreneurs have a desire to create and Build Things Of Value.
- Entrepreneurs have a need to Be Recognized As Different – a different type of contributor.
These are defining internal forces driving An Entrepreneur.
In addition,
An Entrepreneur is a business leader who:
- Recognizes, uses, & develops People Strengths…first in self and then in others,
- Clicks with other People [has self-control & a pleasing-enough personality], and
- Is ready, willing, and able to lead change…first in self and then in others.
These are the defining characteristics of – the key Personal Strengths of - An Entrepreneur.
These 3 forces coupled with these 3 characteristics form Spirited Leaders’ definition of An Entrepreneur.
