In the author's opinion, one of the greatest obstacles to producer success is that most producers do not view themselves as entrepreneurs. Rather, they see themselves as agency employees. An entrepreneur, by definition, is one who assumes the responsibility and the risk for a business operation with the expectation of making a profit. The author had a much harder time finding a good definition for employee. But the general description is: "a paid worker," or "somebody who is paid by somebody else to do a job." As such, an employee doesn't assume risk for the operation, other than possibly a personal one. On what's so great about being an entrepreneur and the owner of Me Inc, in a word: freedom. Going back to the definition of an entrepreneur, it's all about taking responsibility and ass...
[Jeff Taylor]: My definition of an entrepreneur is that when everyone around you thinks you are crazy, you still think you have the big idea, and you act on it. I don't think that always happens with an economic cycle that's complementary. I would suggest that there is a certain kind of cadence and a set of things that come together to create the right time for starting a company. There's an economic influence, but that is not necessarily the No. 1 concern as you are pursuing your idea. If you have 200 lawyers as clients, and you get 80 per- cent of them to come and engage in a small online community talking about your product - a piece of soft- ware for law firms for example - that can be an incredibly productive social network that is very small.

Catherine Ralston may not be in the business of gifts, food or travel, but she's an entrepreneur in the truest sense and according to the dictionary's definition of "managing an enterprise that usually takes considerable initiative and risk. In this case, Ralston not only needed boatloads of initiative and the willingness to risk capital but, in opening the doors to All Is Well, she needed the courage to believe in herself as well.
We develop a process framework of entrepreneurship covering exploration and exploitation of the opportunity as well as the entrepreneur's exit, and suggest that dialectic process theories have the potential to explain the transitions between these phases of the entrepreneurial process. In addition, we apply theories from the fields of sociology, economics, and strategy to better understand and explain various salient activities within the entrepreneurial process. A particular contribution is to increase awareness of the exit phase of the entrepreneurial process, the transition into this phase, as well as the link between entrepreneurial exit and re-entry decisions.

An entrepreneur, by Webster's definition, is a person who organizes, manages and assumes the risks of a business or enterprise. But how does an enterprising individual go about becoming an entrepreneur? Lindenwood University hopes to answer that question by offering a new approach to start its graduates in the right direction.

This article examines the effect of culture on entrepreneurial cognition in Native Americans. Traditional concepts of culture as linear, pervasive, and exclusive in a society are modified to reflect recent research in social cognition that indicates culture is much more fragmented and complex than previously believed. This new view of culture acquisition explains how people who embrace two cultures (bicultural) decide to respond to environmental cues concerning new venture creation.
