Are You a Social Entrepreneur?
An entrepreneur is a unique type of individual. Entrepreneurs are not afraid of taking risks, are not afraid to put their reputations on the line, and, most importantly, are not afraid to fail. Extraordinarily successful entrepreneurial ventures like Google, Tesla, or Amazon may receive the most attention, but the fact is that the majority of companies fail in their first year. There are many reasons for this; for example, sometimes the business model is not profitable enough, the business runs out of investment funding, or it turns out that a product prototype cannot be put into production. Successful entrepreneurs persist through these difficulties. They realize the road to success is not easy and that there will be many obstacles. An entrepreneur is someone who is willing to accept these risks and obstacles as part of the journey, who enjoys struggle, and who accepts failure as the possible price for persevering through struggle.
In this Assignment, you will take a minimum of 2 entrepreneurial self-assessment surveys and identify the type of entrepreneur you are and three of your entrepreneurial characteristics as indicated by the survey. Then, you will explain how these characteristics may represent strengths in social entrepreneurship ventures.
