to entrepreneur or not to entrepreneur

To Entrepreneur or Not to Entrepreneur…

that is the Question

“Why did I become an entrepreneur?”

• Was it due to a great idea?

• Did you have an extra special skill or knowledge that others would pay to take advantage of?

• Were you tired of the corporate “rat race” and decided to do for yourself and get the money versus doing for others who got the money instead of you?

Are You a Natural Entrepreneur?

Are you “interested” in… Developing business models and strategic

planning? Being “hands on” doing the actual work? Business prospecting and “closing the

deal”? Maintaining the “books” i.e. sending out

invoices and collecting outstanding receivables?

Imparting knowledge about your business to others?

Directing others in achieving your business goals?

Delegating tasks to others on your team?Wors Consulting, LLC All Rights Reserved 2009

So What Does This Mean???

• We tend to focus on what we are interested in and leave the areas we are less interested in

FOR OTHERS TO DO!!!

• No one can do it all, but an entrepreneur tries


What is this leading up to?

Hippocrates stated:

“You can put all the people in the world into one of four categories and accurately describe how they will behave”


The Birkman Method®

Identifies “interests” which govern the type of work to which we gravitate

By Understanding Who I Am I Can…

• Know where my interests lay spending valuable time where I am strongest

• Acknowledge where I need assistance, i.e. the areas of least interest or I am weakest

• Begin building relationships with others who have the interests or skills where I am lacking

• Instruct, Direct or Delegate, to others the areas where I have the least interest


TAKE AN ASSESSMENT FOR COST SAVINGS AND GROWTH!!!

Look around the room… there are people here who can make the

difference in your success or failure
