Awaken The Entrepreneur Within You

It is said that an individual has complete knowledge of himself. He knows what his strengths and weaknesses are. But we are often not familiar with few of our attributes. Some of our qualities lie unacknowledged. One has to do a self-assessment practice to identify his hidden qualities. Have you come across a situation when someone compliments your smile and then you suddenly realize that indeed you have a beautiful one? I am sure we all have been witnesses of such situations where we come to know of our qualities only after someone pointing it out to us. This holds truth in case of Entrepreneurship journey as well.

       Not all Entrepreneurs knew from birth that they would want to be Entrepreneurs down the line of life. It all happens when one comes in connects with his/her inner self. Let’s see what qualities define an Entrepreneur: 

 

      Leadership: Being a team player is very different than being the team leader. A leader is the driving force which moves the team to success. It is the most essential quality required to be an Entrepreneur. How you use this quality determines the success or failure of your Business. An Entrepreneur has to monitor the performance of every team member closely and convert their individual objectives into the ones required by business. If you have always been complimented after being a leader in school, college or work teams then life has already given you the cue!

        Creative:  This quality makes an Entrepreneur stand out in the crowd. When you start a new business, you have to be creative. Actually I feel only if one is creative, only then he would be able to come up with the unique business idea. Creativity is one such element which has no ends. What better way can you use your creativity other than applying it in your business for earning great profits?  DON’T JUST BE CREATIVE, USE YOUR PRODUCTIVITY!

        Time management:  Time is the most precious asset of life. Unfortunately, very few understand its worth. To run a new business, time plays a crucial role. You have to use it in the best profitable manner because not a single minute would come back to you once wasted. In business you have manage different aspects such as:

•   Production

•   Marketing & Promotion

•   Sales

•   Finance & Accounts

•  Administration

•   Customer Relationship Management

•   Human Resource Management

You have to be a Pro in all of these and you have to monitor performance of all the departments to succeed.

Being clear about the vision and mission of the business: Entrepreneurship is successful only if the Entrepreneur has a clear understanding of the vision (ideology and principles of the business) as well as its mission (what the business wants to achieve, in how much time, how and its objectives). The employees get misguided if the Entrepreneur isn’t clear about the vision and mission of the business.

 Communication Expert: No business can succeed without effective communication. You have to be heard by the customers. Here, the quality of communication comes to action.

“The primary task of leadership is to communicate the vision and the values of an organization. Second, leaders must win support for the vision and the values they articulate. And third, leaders have to reinforce the vision and the values”

-         Frederick Smith, FedEx Chairman and CEO.
