Enterprise

“Not everyone is an entrepreneur however, everybody can be part of the entrepreneurial experience” - ACB
So how does one on-board more people, even when one is not an entrepreneur, how can they be integrated into the journey. In the running of an enterprise there are different stages or phases of an entrepreneurial transaction which is carried out by various individuals who are not entrepreneurs. These individuals can be integrated into the entrepreneurial journey as employers, investors, buyers of the goods and services or otherwise. The key thing is building those entrepreneurial relationships within that ecosystem, so the business is sustainable, then the employees and employers stay happy.

So it is a win-win solution for enterprise. But when we try to almost force people who are not entrepreneurs into it, it does not work out. One thing I want to do in entrepreneurship is to encourage people who have ideas whether in terms of mentoring, funding or investment to help them get to where they need to be. Secondly, to make those who are not entrepreneurs comfortable and also help them add value to enterprise. Personally, I also believe that within our businesses, we can still be “intrapreneurs” i.e. within the business, how do we maximise our entrepreneurship skills. We need to look at new models of enterprise to make things different.
