What To Do? My Two Cents
• We need more “doers” and less talkers
• Entrepreneurship ≠ Risk
• Learn to manage risk• Early experience & exposure to
entrepreneurialism

Thoughts?

Young Entrepreneurs• Lack experience
– How they’re raised?– How they’re educated?
• Need depth of skill• Skill + Experience = Performance, fast• Limiting variables = Increased success
– Many student entrepreneurship opportunities take advantage of this: service, market, system

The Gap
• Learning & Knowledge deficiency can often lead to the perception of it being riskier

Risk: DefinedRisk is defined as: • exposure to the chance of injury or loss;
danger; hazard.• the possibility of incurring misfortune or loss;
hazard

Risk: Young Entrepreneur Perspective
• It’s not a risk – it’s calculated. Vegas is a risk. Entrepreneurs don’t take risk, we plan and then execute.
• You are the risk – you make the decisions.• The opportunity cost associated with pursuing a
particular route.• Failure, and the need to start over again.

• What are some of the differences?
• Consider risks of both & benefits of both
• Tend to focus on losing what we have (or what we think we have)
Entrepreneur vs Employee
