Write a report in which you summarise your most important learning and insights you have gathered from your (secondary) research about the entrepreneur you have chosen. Explore and discuss patterns, differences and similarities evident between entrepreneurship theory and what you found written about your entrepreneur's mindset, orientation, and behaviour.
Below are some aspects that you could investigate (use as a guideline only):
- Why can this person be categorised as an entrepreneur?
- What type of entrepreneur is your chosen entrepreneur?
- What are your entrepreneur's major talents and shortcomings (as an entrepreneur)?
- How would you describe your entrepreneur's temperament?
- How would you describe the entrepreneurial orientation of the person you are studying?
- What things motivate your entrepreneur to pursue entrepreneurial opportunities?
- What surprised you most about your entrepreneur's behaviour?
- Through your research, what was confirmed /contradicted about entrepreneurship?
- What new insights emerged?
- How important is teamwork to your entrepreneur?
- What hurdles did he/she overcome?
- What mistakes did he/she make?
- Of what importance was networking to your entrepreneur?
- Which "tools of the trade" is he/she using?
- What factors support/hinder his/her entrepreneurial behaviour?
- In what ways does this study inform your knowledge of entrepreneurship?
The key to this evaluation is the way in which you integrate the information you have collected about your entrepreneur with the content of this course and the theories (such as entrepreneurial orientation and the entrepreneurship process) underpinning entrepreneurship. It is not simply a list and outline of the events and activities of your selected entrepreneur, but the way in which you convey a focused and sustained argument supported by literature; appropriate for integrating theory and practice.
To this extent, you are to apply (and appropriately reference, both in-text and in the reference list) at least 10 sources (to include at least 3-5 academic journal articles, plus newspaper articles. Periodicals, web links, blogs, social media and so on).
