Something more about Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship is also about the ability to convince people in what you believe is true or right. In what you think is best and worthy, in what you consider being reasonable and deserving.  

We all had a chance to present it at the Literature seminar, defending one of the opposite ideas. To my opinion, actually, it does not matter what you are having debate on, the result depends on how you convince people, what facts you provide to make them sure that you are absolutely right, what strategy you follow to, what tactics you use, what examples you present to make them certain and of course first of all, you have to persuade yourself that you are on a right track in chosen idea. If you don’t believe in what you are saying, no one will and you will never prove to everyone that you are right, that you ideas are the best and they deserve being heard or supported. 

As for the debate we had, let’s take the idea of entrepreneurs: whether they are born of made, this topic has been debated on for many decades, and still there is no definite answer, but only trends that support different opinions. Even though I personally was debating on another topic, I also had time to contemplate on this topic. 

If we are saying that entrepreneurs are born then why we are at JIBS now, why the program on Entrepreneurship is taking place and we study the theory of entrepreneurship, why we are keep saying that market situations teach us to be good entrepreneurs, why the phrase: practice makes perfect makes sense, to be aware of the opportunities entrepreneurs pursuit, why when hiring staff experience, knowledge and background are being paid attention on.

If we are saying that entrepreneurs are made then what about the examples of Bill Gates, Walt Disney, Henry Ford, the great people that didn’t even have a proper business education but they reached the top of their career, they succeeded in their endeavors; these innovators are popular all over the world due to their talent, creativeness and innate ability. As for the scientists, they are also can be counted to be innate entrepreneurs, Albert Einstein who was kicked off the school but on the other hand he opened the Laws of Physics, that were not known before, Van Gogh, who died in poverty, though his masterpieces are of a great value now. 

Whatever you are, if you want to be heard, to be successful and innovative, you have to be persuasive, have to be able to convince others that you are right and your ideas are the best.
