Analysing the Entrepreneur
The ever-increasing attraction of undergraduate courses in business studies demonstrates that many young people begin their working lives determined to be a success in business. Many of them will have ambitions of becoming bosses.(0)___G___That should be the question which all ambitious young business people ask themselves.
Some graduates learn how to run a business in someone else’s time, and then in their early thirties, start out on their own. That course of action is relatively common and straightforward.【P1】______Often, however, their business flair comes at the expense of more mundane business skills such as team building and maintaining harmony.
A recent study, in which seventeen successful entrepreneurs took part in in-depth interviews, as did a similar number of chief executives, concluded that honesty and strong moral principles are important characteristics of entrepreneurs who achieve lasting success. According to the various tests and self-assessment questionnaires used in the interviews, seventy per cent of entrepreneurs have these characteristics, as opposed to only twenty-eight per cent of chief executives. 【P2】______ It would seem that most entrepreneurs deserve more credit than people generally give them.
This ethical style of leadership fosters a culture in which expectations are uncompromisingly high and in which people believe they will be properly rewarded for their individual contribution. 【P3】______ Employees often complain that the worst kind of bosses are the ones who own the business, as they can be very intolerant of others who make mistakes.
Entrepreneurs are passionate about their work but they have not worked their way up through the organisation and tend to lack the people management qualities that chief executives have developed over long careers.【P4】______Of course, it could be argued that the single-minded approach of entrepreneurs is what makes them successful; it certainly enables them to put extraordinary effort into what they do.
The study indicates that generally chief executives can match entrepreneurs in terms of drive and determination. There is one exception and that relates to taking risks.【P5】______The chief executive can, on the other hand, always move to another company.
But in the end, if there are no entrepreneurs, there is no work for chief executives. It is the people that start businesses who are the original wealth creators.
Example:
A However, it can also result in entrepreneurs being profoundly disappointed when others fail to live up to their high standards.
B They need to have the confidence to make everyone in the organisation believe that this is no ordinary place and no ordinary job.
C Given the common perception that entrepreneurs are only in business to make money, this very positive finding was perhaps the most surprising.
D They are less likely to promote teamwork and co-operation than chief executives, who are much better at reading and understanding those around them.
E After all, if it is your own company, you cannot walk away, and you will do anything either to keep it afloat or to help it prosper.
F But true entrepreneurs do not necessarily wait until their business knowledge has improved or until the time is right - they have always been driven to achieve.
G But is it best for them to become entrepreneurs and start their own business or work towards running someone else’s?
