Week 2 Assignment

Course Objective:
Evaluate the traits of successful entrepreneurs.

Prompt:
Some might assume it is easy to start a business in the United States and that anyone can do it. However, what distinguishes successful entrepreneurs (innovative/disruptive ideas) from less successful ones (Mom & Pop small businesses with ordinary ideas) is the ability to spot an opportunity for a high-potential venture and then to develop it into a thriving business. As the business grows, the successful entrepreneur is able to attract key management team members, to motivate employees, to find more and more customers and keep them coming back, and to build increasingly sophisticated relationships with financiers..

Address the following questions:

1. What are the traits/characteristics of a successful entrepreneur?
2. What traits/characteristics can lead to the downfall of an entrepreneur and how can they be transformed?
3. Complete the assessment provided in the link below and then discuss in detail your results and how they relate to your future as an entrepreneur. Do you have to work on a specific area? Are you strong in a specific area that makes you a good candidate for entrepreneurship?  Were the results accurate?
