The MBA and recruiting

Admin

For me the MBA is just an investment in the personal growth and not a vehicle to get a better job. That’s why I’ve chosen to develop myself as an entrepreneur and to make things happen, no matter what than to wait for things to happen.

Admin

Forbes.com published recently an article about enterpreneurship highlighting 5 secrets Entrepreneurs Will Never Reveal.

The 5 secrets are:

1. It is lonely at the top. Yes, it’s cliché but that is what it feels like when you always have to make the final decision and bear the ultimate responsibility. You can get advice from a management team or an advisory board, but the buck stops with you. Remember: There are always upsides. When things go bad, it’s your responsibility. When things go well, you get to enjoy the profits.

2. They have doubt daily. For all the bravado, ego and beaming confidence, entrepreneurs daily have a crisis in confidence. They think – “what if I am wrong?” No amount of reassurance from customers, employees or advisors can quell this nagging fear. Remember: Every entrepreneur has doubts. An uncertain outcome is what makes the business so exciting.

3. They fear failure. As much as they say they value failure as a way to learn, they are scared when it happens to them and wonder if they will ever recover. Many times there is really nothing to learn from failure. Remember: When you do fail, learn what you can and then let go of it. This will give you another opportunity to succeed.
