The Importance of Entrepreneurship in Business
http://creatives.world.edu/2018/02/14/common-mistakes-business-owners-make-initial-days/ Entrepreneurship is the practice of designing, launching and running a new business, which is often originally a little business. The men and women who make these businesses are known as entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurship has been described as the "capacity and willingness to grow, arrange and manage a business enterprise alongside some of its dangers in order to create a profit". While definitions of entrepreneurship typically revolve around the start and running of businesses, due to the high risks involved with establishing a start-up, a significant percentage of start-up companies have to close because of "lack of financing, poor business decisions, an economic crisis, lack of market demand--or a combination of all of these. Entrepreneurship is the action of being an entrepreneur, or "an owner or director of a business enterprise who makes money at risk and initiative". Entrepreneurs act as supervisors and manage the launch and expansion of a venture. Entrepreneurship is the process by which either an individual or a team defines a business opportunity and acquires and deploys the necessary resources required for its manipulation. Early 19th century French economist Jean-Baptiste Say provided a broad definition of entrepreneurship, saying that it "shifts economic resources out of an area of lower and into an area of higher productivity and higher yield". Entrepreneurs create something fresh, something different-they change or transmute values. Irrespective of the firm size, large or little, they could partake in entrepreneurship opportunities. Four criteria are required by the chance to become an entrepreneur. First, there needs to be opportunities or scenarios to recombine resources to create profit. Second, entrepreneurship requires differences between individuals, such as preferential access to specific people or the ability to comprehend information about opportunities. Third, taking on risk is quite necessary. The entrepreneurial process demands the organization of people and resources. The entrepreneur is a factor in microeconomics and also the study of entrepreneurship reaches back to the job of Richard Cantillon and Adam Smith in the late 17th and early 18th centuries. However, entrepreneurship was largely ignored theoretically until the late 19th and early 20th centuries and empirically before a deep resurgence in business and economics since the late 1970s. From the 20th century, the understanding of entrepreneurship owes much to the work of economist Joseph
Schumpeter in the 1930s along with other Austrian economists like Carl Menger, Ludwig von Mises and Friedrich von Hayek. According to Schumpeter, an entrepreneur is someone who's willing and ready to convert a new idea or innovation into a successful innovation. Entrepreneurship employs what Schumpeter called "the gale of creative destruction" to replace in whole or part poor innovations across markets and businesses, simultaneously creating new products such as new business models. In this manner, creative destruction is mostly responsible for the dynamism of businesses and long-term economic growth. The supposition that entrepreneurship leads to economic growth is an interpretation of the remaining in endogenous growth theory and as such is hotly debated in academic economics. An alternative explanation typified by Israel Kirzner implies that the majority of innovations may be much more incremental improvements such as the replacement of paper with plastic in the creating of drinking straws. http://scalar.usc.edu/works/new-daily-article/the-secret-to-help-succeed-in-start-up
