Top Ten Qualities Of An Entrepreneur
About Think about some entrepreneurs you know, people who have gone on to achieve great success in their lives and consider what it is that makes them go on and do so well. Many of them have done this against all odds and for many their desire to succeed has been borne out of necessity and desperation. I believe when someone is truly desperate, they will do anything to make things better and the strength of this determination blows any limiting factors or limiting beliefs out of the window. The qualities that every Entrepreneur has in common are numerous and I have chosen what I know to be the Top 10 qualities and characteristics that are present in all entrepreneurs.
Vision They know what they want, they visualise themselves doing it. So they have the 'What' and they have to strive to make the 'How' happen. They do this by networking furiously; it is rare that a true entrepreneur will have a conversation with anyone without a purpose.
Belief All entrepreneurs have a strong belief in their ability although many successful people have said they quite often had no idea what they were doing from one day to the next. Their inner belief is what drove them on to success, they knew that whatever hurdle they came across, they would not stop at it.
Courag e All entrepreneurs have courage although they may not admit this to themselves or anyone else but they have this in abundance. They may present as confident but deep inside they are quaking with nerves and anticipation but at least they take action.
Ambition & Determination Every successful entrepreneur has ambition and determination although I would have to say that determination is the leading factor of the two here.
Patience & Perseverance Every entrepreneur has patience and perseverance although entrepreneurs may have these in fewer quantities than other regular people. This is because their vision, coupled with their belief and determination is pushing them forward to their next goal all of the time.
Creativity and Innovative Entrepreneurs are by nature creative and innovative. You can even see this quality in young children. Some children receive financial rewards for doing chores at home, some children receive financial support from their parents for doing nothing and some children go and find ways of earning their own money
Persistenc e Entrepreneurs are nothing if not persistent. They know their idea is a good one and it may just be that the timing is not quite right, the location is not quite right, their marketing approach is not quite right but they WILL find a way to make things happen.
Results Oriented Most entrepreneurs will not take no for an answer. When they are confronted with this response, they may well ask the question "do you know someone who may be interested, who would you suggest I speak with?" etc. They never allow a door to be closed without another even being slightly open.
Integrity Entrepreneurs must have integrity and to not have this quality would be a slight contradiction in the actual definition of entrepreneur. Yes they can be quite ruthless but this will not be intentionally to step over people but mainly because they are so driven.
Customer Focus Every entrepreneur knows that without their customers they are nothing. Many regular business owners know this as well so what separates the entrepreneur in their approach with customers.
