RECOGNIZING
ENTREPRENEURIAL GIFTEDNESS
“Entrepreneurial talent is in great demand,”
agree both government officials and business executives. Successful
entrepreneurs bring innovation to life by implementing creative ideas.
Talented entrepreneurs thus are important players in the economic success
and prosperity of any country. In spite of a great societal demand on and
importance of entrepreneurial talents, nobody trains us on how to discover
and develop them in ourselves and how to manage them inside and outside
organizations. Entrepreneurial talent is not about a business plan or a
venture capital for financing a start-up. Entrepreneurial talent is
something significantly more fundamental. This workshop offers a unique
opportunity to learn:
