Importance
of Entrepreneurial Education.
Education
means more than teaching a skill. It's not wealth itself, but a means to
acquiring wealth. It helps build in us, a rational mindset. Some
people erroneously believe that the easiest way to succeed as an
entrepreneur is to become a college drop-out. One popular definition of an
entrepreneur is that person who sees what others don't. Entrepreneurship
is about opportunity recognition, agility, constant response to the
market, high quality products, and innovation. To become a successful
entrepreneur, certain skills need to be learned, which include the
following:
1. How to
plan effectively.
2. Sourcing
and management of finance.
3. Marketing
4. Growing a
business.
Entrepreneurial
courses for students cover these skills and more. It helps create a
rational way of thinking among them. Like good detectives, entrepreneurs
are keen observers, except that what they look for are opportunities. They
tend to be inner-driven, but outward-focused. They tend to think of how
to proactively create a future.
In fact, one
of the challenges businesses face in the 21st century is competition.
Entrepreneurship education must go on evolving: it must be nimble and
responsive, yet protective of the academic rigor and excellence. Starting
a successful entrepreneurial venture is no easy task. It takes the right
mindset and financial commitment.
