What is an Entrepreneur?

What is an Entrepreneur?
Assembles resources
An entrepreneur is someone who takes an idea or opportunity, and turns it into a profitable enterprise by assembling the necessary skills and resources to manage the risks involved.
The real thrill of entrepreneurship is creating something from nothing. This requires vision, creative thinking, a knack for getting things organized, and a lot of hard work.
Takes risk
They know how to take calculated risks, but don’t gamble in business.
Leads
Entrepreneurs are individuals who take initiative and responsibility.
Real entrepreneurs are creative and innovative leaders who can motivate their team to reach the goals of the enterprise with passion and enthusiasm.
Empowers
Great entrepreneurs empower others and make a difference in their community through their enterprise. They are hard workers and also know how to delegate. They create opportunity and employment for others.
Great entrepreneurs are business owners who can leave the business in the capable hands of competent staff and still see satisfactory results.
Innovates
There is a common misconception that self-employed people are automatically entrepreneurs. The differentiating characteristic is that entrepreneurs implement innovation through “out the box” thinking.
Creative thinking requires no action. Innovation requires action and implementation.
Create wealth
They work hard and aspire to achieve wealth. Entrepreneurship creates wealth in the lives of everyone involved in the organisation and in the community.
True entrepreneurs know that wealth is not limited to money or assets. They know that wealth lies in a balanced life which is connected to the ones they love
