is running.
What is your opinion about innovation being the core function of an entrepreneur?
Entrepreneurship involves spotting an opportunity and evaluate its economical viability and convert it into
economically profitable enterprise. It is the innovative function of an entrepreneur that helps him to come up
with innovative ideas and products to economically exploit an opportunity. Thus innovation is at the core of
the entrepreneurial functions. It helps an entrepreneur to challenge the status quo of the existing products or
services, improve them to by adding more value and strive for consumer satisfaction.
It is only when innovation is put into a product or service, a person becomes an entrepreneur. Otherwise, a
person is just a regular business man. The economic success of a nation depends upon the rate of innovation
in the economic field. This in turn depends upon the number of people in the society who exhibit innovative
function. In India, after independence, there were very less number of innovations, for the first forty years. It
is only after the innovative spirit of entrepreneurs started to boom, the country started to move ahead
economically. Thus entrepreneurs are at the core of economic development.
Why should we encourage the entrepreneurs, though they sometimes result in a loss of a country’s
valuable natural resources?
Entrepreneurs, in pursuit of their goal, take risk. But the amount of risk is minimized to a greater extent
when there is very good planning. Usually entrepreneurs will not deploy all the funds centrally at one place.
They diversify their investment in various areas. Also, entrepreneurs, by nature, have the ability to gauge
uncertainities likely to occur in the future. In case of any disaster, they usually will have a plan to mitigate
the effects. So, they should be encouraged though there is always a possibility of the economic loss.
On the other hand, entrepreneurs are innovative. They are always exploring for new ventures and improving
the products and services. Unless they’re in the business where in natural resources are experminted, there is
no significant impact on the environment. As the nature of the businesses is shifting towards the service
oriented approach, they seldom cause any loss to the Nation’s natural resources. They usually have a plan to
encounter unforseen contingencies thus minimizing the loss. Moreover, the benefits of the innovation far
outweigh the loss that is likely to occur. Also, there is always risk associated with any venture. But when
there is success in their attempts to experiment with the natural resources, there is huge impact on the
economic condition of a nation. So, they should always be encouraged, provided they’ve extreme measures
to mitigate any losses that’re likely to occur. Also, the government policies ensure that the entrepreneurs
take appropriate whenever there is an impact on the ecological system. For instance, when the entrepreneurs
have to establish an enterprise in a forest area where there is endangered wild life, they should first ensure
that the wild life is rehabilitated before they establish their enterprise. Similarly, when they’re establishing
an industry in a place close to a lake or river, they should ensure that the industrial wastage is treated well
before releasing it out. When these precautions are taken, there won’t be any loss of natural resources and
there is significant improvement in the economic development of a country.

An Intrapreneur or a corporate entrepreneur is a person, who has entrepreneurial competencies and who
innovate the products or services for the organization he/she is working for. The intrapreneur or corporate
entrepreneur is usually an employee of a large organization who uses the resources and capabilities of the
organization, rather than their own, to put their innovative ideas to practice and align their goals to the
organizational goals.
Define competency.
Competency : Competency refers to a set of well defined behaviours that act as a road-map to
i. recognize
ii. measure
iii. and develop
all the necessary behaviours required by a person to perform a job or achieve a goal.
In which direction does the value ‘Respect for work’ guide and direct an entrepreneur?
The value ‘Respect for work’ provides the goal direction for an entrepreneur and guides and direct them to
pursue a career or path where in the growth and development is highly in proportion to the level of efforts
they put in.
An industrial entrepreneur is one who establishes an enterprise that manufacture products or provide
services which are highly in demand. They exploit the economic resources to economically viable ventures.
The enterprise, Maruti Suzuki India Ltd, which is in the business of car manufacturing and offering car
related services is an example of such enterprises.
Entrepreneurs should have passion in their work and love what they’re working upon. This will help them to
stay unaffected during tough times. This will also help them to become role model for their employees. It is
likely that the passion will decrease during tough times. They should take some time off during these times.
During this time they can re-kindle the passion by reminding themselves of all the valid reasons about the
motive behind starting the enterprise and the advantage of being their own boss.
An individual acquires an attitude through the social interaction with different individuals in the society.
Different incidents and interactions with others form different attitudes in a person. Thus the attitude is not
just developed by a person and many external factors are involved in forming an attitude in a person.
For instance the experience a person had after using a cell phone might form a positive or negative attitude
towards the manufacturing company of that phone.
Another example is the experience a person had with the water in a restaurant a restaurant might form a
positive or negative attitude about the restaurant itself.
Thus it is clear that the attitude is pervasive by nature.
a. Acquired: The attitude is not acquired by birth. During childhood we acquire the attitude mostly
from the family members. As we grow, we start acquiring the attitude from the society. We acquire
the attitude gradually (not instantaneously). The process of acquiring the attitude remains throughout
the life span.
b. Behaviour: People behave in accordance to their attitude. In the absence of an influence, people
with certain attitude behave in an intended way.
For instance, when you enter a mobile store, you want to purchase a specific model of a certain
company in the absence of any external influence. Attractive ads displayed in the store can influence
you and change your behaviour(to purchase a differnt model or a phone of a different company).
Even the sales man/girl might influence you to purchase a different model or brand. But in the
absence of these external intervention to change your behaviour, you behave as per your attitude.
c. Concealed or Invisible : Attitude is purely psychological and is not externally visible. However,
depending on the behaviour a person exhibits towards a commodity or person or country, we can
guess the attitude of a person. For instance, depending upon the interest shown by a student on a
specic subject, we can infer that the student has a positive attitude towards that subject or faculty.
d. Pervasive: An individual acquires an attitude through the social interaction with different individuals
in the society. Different incidents and interactions with others form different attitudes in a person.
Thus the attitude is not just developed by a person and many external factors are involved in forming
an attitude in a person.
For instance the experience a person had after using a cell phone might form a positive or negative
attitude towards the manufacturing company of that phone.
Another example is the experience a person had with the water in a restaurant a restaurant might
form a positive or negative attitude about the restaurant itself.
Thus it is clear that the attitude is pervasive by nature.
Innovation and creativity are the the most important core values of entrepreneurs. While creativity guide an
entrepreneur to dream about creative ideas to improve an existing product or service or solve a problem,
innovation guides them to put their ideas into practical use.
An entrepreneur exhibits innovation by
Entrepreneurs are broadly categorized into four different types according to C.Danhof (Clarence Danhof).
1. Innovative : These entrepreneurs innovate new products or services or improve upon them. They are
very aggressive and intelligent to put their ideas into practice. These are common among the
developed countries.
2. Imitative : They follow the innovative entrepreneurs and are flexible to adopt their ideas. They start
the enterprise by imitating other people’s ideas. They bring about the change and are very crucial for
the underdeveloped economic societies
3. Fabian : Fabian entrepreneurs are the entrepreneurs with the following features.
a. Adopt and follow conventional approaches
b. Belong to family business
c. Cautious
d. Display lazy and shy behaviour
e. Exhibit resistance to venture or risk(This can be considered as their crucial behaviour)
f. Firm in their rigid and fundamental approach.
g. Go for a change only for the fear of failure and loss.(This can also be considered as their
crucial behaviour)
4. Drone : These are laggards who follow the traditional way of doing business and are reluctant to any
change, even if they face losses. They do not utilize the opportunities they come across.
“Innovation time off” is a motivation process, used by Google, to encourage the employees. In this program
every employee spends 20% of their time to work on projects that interest them. This intrapreneurship
program involves
Several of Google’s products and services like Gmail, Google news, Orkut and adsense are products of this
“Innovation time off” Intrapreneurship program. According to an announcement, half of the new products or
services from Google were from this program.
In India, the enterprises like Marico and Kinetic Engineering Limited has introduced similar programs.
What are all the various sources through which we acquire attitude?
The following are the various sources through we acquire the attitude.
a. Family members : At tender ages, the family member have a strong influence in the formation of
attitude. It could be positive or negative.
b. Need : Necessity changes our attitude others or objects. For instance, the need to reach the school or
office, might change his attitude towards possing a own vehicle as against the public transportation
c. Group Associations : The groups that we blong to will have a great influence. For instance, if
you’re in MPC group in 10+1, you might have positive attitude towards Maths. Being part of a
soccer group might lead to development of negative attitude about another sport.
d. Influential Others: A friend or a relative might influence you to form a positive attitude towards an
object or product or person. For instance, your friend might influence you to develop a positive
attitude towards a sport. Your favourite star might influence you (through ad) to develop a positive
attitude towards a certain four wheeler.
Attitude is our behaviour towards a person, place, object or event, either positively or negatively. We are not
exposed to a person or place or object or event when we’re born. It is only after we start growing that we
come across these. Thus we can say that one do not possess an attitude by birth.
At tender ages, family members have a great influence in developing an attitude. These attitude will start
becoming stronger as we grow.
Coming across various situations and meeting people will start influencing us and we start developing new
attitudes. Thus we can say that the development of attitude is a gradual process.
These are the entrepreneurs who are the last to adopt the changes in the technology, environment and trend

Many of the entrepreneurial ventures are unique and new. So, they need a very close watch. Once the
product or service is in place, it should be marketed. If the market for the new product does not exist, the
entrepreneur should find new ways to create the market, for selling their product or service. During this
process, they encounter many hurdles. The entrepreneur should be highly persistent in their efforts and
should not give up. Thus persistence is a vital entrepreneurial competency that the entrepreneur should
possess.
Many of the entrepreneurial ventures are unique and new. From the start of the enterprise to the stage where
the product or service is introduced into the market, there is lot of uncertainty associated and the entire
enterprise has to go through many hurdles and roadblocks. During this, it is essential to guide and motivate
the team towards the goal. To achieve this the entrepreneur should possess effective leadership qualities to
keep the team focused on the goal of the enterprise. As a leader, the entrepreneur should exhibit
a. Time
b. Funds
c. Labour
The entrepreneurs gather funds majorly from their personal savings. They put all their efforts and time to
establish their enterprise. Any deviation in the planning of the enterprise’s activities will be disastrous and
result in the collapse of their dream. In order to put all of these resources to the optimum use, and to spend
them in the right direction, they should prepare a detailed systematic planning. They should strictly
implement this systematic planning to drive all of their resources towards the goal.
While conducting business, the enterprise should guard itself from potentially controversial issues such as
The study of proper business policies and practices related to the above controversial issues is know as
‘Business ethics’.
Business ethics are often guided by law. Sometimes they provide the basic framework that business choose
in order to gain public acceptance.
Why should an entrepreneur should consider ‘Business ethics’ are critical to sustain his business?

purely depends on how the external environment perceives his idea. Any sort of non-adherence to business
ethics is likely to put them on the verge of fatality. The should adopt what is termed as ‘Social
Entrepreneurship’, ‘Corporate social responsibility’, ‘Social corporate entrepreneurship’.
Focusing completely on the business problems is likely to overlook ethical problems. So, they should be
cautious. Non-adherence to business ethics has crashed the business giants like Enron, WorldCom,
Anderson etc. So, it is essential for the entrepreneur to adhere to ‘Business ethics’ for the success of the
enterprise.

entrepreneurship for personal satisfaction in work, ego or status. They are highly creative.
b. Induced : These entrepreneurs undertake entrepreneurship to grab the opportunities that come their
way like government’s support for prospective entrepreneurs etc. Some times, the circumstances like
unemployment or not satisfied by their current job will also force them to adopt entrepreneurship.
c. Motivated : These entrepreneurs are highly ambitious and are motivated by their desire to put their
talent or skill into practical use. They adopt the entrepreneurship as they’re confident of their idea
turning into a successful venture. They’re further motivated when their innovative product or service
is adopted by the market and bring them profits.
According to Abraham Maslow’s “Hierarchy of Needs” theory, What is the role esteem plays on
human beings?
According to The Maslow – Hierarchy of Needs Theory, esteem is a typical human desire to be accepted
and valued by others. To achieve this they often engage themselves in a hobby or profession that could bring
them reputation.

a. self-respect
b. self-esteem
c. desire for esteem from others
Self-esteem is critical for survival. It contributes majorly to the normal and healthy development of a person.

In addition to inner esteem factors, people also have a need for external esteem factors like
Appreciation
Attention

Thus esteem plays a vital role, both internally and externally on human beings. It has a huge impact on their
personal growth.
How does the competency ‘Creativity and Innovation’ help the entrepreneurs to achieve their goal?
Few individuals have creativity and innovation as a basic characteristic. This help them to achieve
their goal.
In certain cases, they may not have new and creative ideas to introduce a new product or service. But
they use creative ideas and innovate the existing products or services(make them), to meet the
challenges of a situation.
Thus, the competency ‘Creativity and Innovation’ helps the entrepreneurs to create wealth with very
small effort.
This also brings them numerous opportunities, as they do not have to innovate a new product or
service right from scratch. They just have to use their creativity and innovation to improve upon the
existing product or service, to ease out any challenges.
a. Intrapreneurs have entrepreneurial competencies in them. Thus the organization is assured that the
new special projects or ideas get the due attention.
b. Intrapreneurs worn on a win-win situation. Thus the organization is guaranteed of best output.
c. The organization gets new opportunities (the intrapreneur’s ideas) to capitalize.
d. By supporting and encouraging the intrapreneurs, they will be able to retain highly talented and
motivated employees. Otherwise, they quit the job and join a competitor. Sometimes they themselves
become competitors by starting a new enterprise.
e. With their entrepreneurial thoughts, the intrapreneurs are always thinking of better products or
services. This helps the organization to keep pace with the competing markets.

more attention production rather than marketing.
ii. Non-Technical entrepreneurs: They focus on innovative marketing and distribution strategies to

make best use of the resources at their disposal, by launching an enterprise. This trait is what stands them
apart from the crowd.

What did you understand from Maslow’s theory of needs or motivation?
According to Maslow’s theory of motivation or hierarchy of needs there are five elemental needs based on
which every individual is motivated. Following are the stages:
Physiological : They are at the bottom of the hierarchy. Unsatisfied physiological needs like food, water
sleep etc., create physiological and physical tension in a person and motivate the person towards satisfying
these needs. Once these needs are fulfilled, the person moves towards the next motivating need i.e., Safety.
Safety : The need for security and shelter becomes the second motivating factor. This includes the safety
and security of family, employment, property etc. One would feel the need to live life that is free from fear,
tention and they want to be under the protection of order and law. People will put all their efforts so that they
get whatever is required to put them under security and protection. Once this need is satisfied the need for
the next motivating factor i.e, Love/Belonging drives them.
Love/Belonging : The third motivating need is the need for love and belonging. Humans by nature are
social loving. Getting connected with the relatives and family, making friends in the college or office or in
their locality or community will exhibit the effort they put to make them socially belonging. Once these
needs are satisfied the next motivating need i.e., Esteem becomes predominant.
Esteem Esteem is a typical human desire to be accepted and valued by others. To achieve this they often
engage themselves in a hobby or profession that could bring them reputation.
Internally all people will have
a. self-respect
b. self-esteem
c. desire for esteem from others
Self-esteem is critical for survival. It contributes majorly to the normal and healthy development of a person.
Lack of esteem results from imbalance and could lead to inferiority complex.
In addition to inner esteem factors, people also have a need for external esteem factors like
Appreciation
Attention
Dominance
Fame
Glory
Prestige
Recognition
Reputation
Thus esteem plays a vital role, both internally and externally on human beings. It has a huge impact on their
personal growth.
Self-Actualization: This is the highest need of a person. To achieve this they put constant effort to develop
themselves. This need motivate them to learn, create, understand and experience their potential.
