Entrepreneurial Style and Success Indicator
Entrepreneurship and entrepreneurs are an ever-growing segment of business world-wide. The statistics for long-term success, however, are less than attractive; 85 percent of all small businesses fail within the first five years of operation.
Successful entrepreneurs are tasked to discover new problems, reveal potential niche opportunities, refactor their original business process, and innovate. This is contingent on being passionate about different fields of study and business cases outside of one’s comfort zone.
This 32-page scientifically developed assessment helps you determine your inherent entrepreneurial tendencies, motivations, and propensities. Increase your chances of entrepreneurial success in this Two Part assessment.
