has been prevalent in every civilisation”

by the Spirit of Creativity for this coming century”

4. “Throughout history, the process of creation whether;
paintings or musical compositions were thought of as
‘spiritual experiences in the service of whatever muse
held the artist in her thrall”
(Thorsby, 2001, p. 95).
“The artist was a channel for a superior power, creativity
a gift from the gods, and the imagination a divine
spark”
(Thorsby, 2001, p. 94).

23. What is Entrepreneurship?
“Entrepreneurship is the identification,
evaluation, and exploitation of opportunities”
(Shane, 2011, p. 143).
Enterprise and its Business
Environment © Goodfellow
Publishers 2016

24. Historic Evolution on Entrepreneurship
•Entrepreneurial strategies are not a twentieth-century
phenomenon.
•The word entrepreneuroriginates from a 13th century French
verb, entreprendre, meaning “to do something” or ‘to undertake’
(Sobel, 2011, p. 2).
•Marco Polo established trade routes to the Far East, he
demonstrated risk-taking behaviour we associate with
entrepreneurship today (Osborne, 1995, p. 4). The ‘fit’
between his skills and the environmental opportunity is a
perfect illustration of a true entrepreneurial strategy, and
in particular is more relevant to our understanding of
entrepreneurship, with its increasing global scope (Ibid,
p. 4).

•Original derivation:
•‘entreprendre’ (French): to undertake

28. However…..
“Entrepreneurship is essentially an
economic phenomenon, and ‘involves a
nexus of two phenomena: the presence of
lucrative opportunities and the presence of
enterprising individuals”.
(Venkataraman, 1997)

Individuals?
Enterprise and its Business
Environment © Goodfellow
Publishers 2016

30. Historical Views from Economics
•Economics tends to marginalize the entrepreneur
•Cantillon and Say (from the perspective of an agrarian
economy) –someone who makes buying and selling
decisions and in so doing is the bearer of risk
•‘Austrian school’: Kirzner –an ‘alert’ middleman who spots
opportunities to facilitate exchange (arbitrage)
•Schumpeter: an innovator –the entrepreneur brings change
through the introduction of new technological processes or
products
•Knight: someone who undertakes risk, with profit being the
reward for bearing uncertainty
•Shackle: emphasises the role of creativity in the
entrepreneurial process
•Casson: someone with the skills to organise or reallocate
resources

37. So Why Choose to be an Entrepreneur?
•Luke Johnson (FT 25/4/07)
•Freedom: “starting and running a business is the
best way of controlling your destiny”
•Changing the world: “creating an enterprise is
perhaps the most effective way of making a positive
difference to society that has ever been devised.”
“What could be more important than creating jobs?”
•Progress: “new business is about upsetting the
status quo, thereby leading to progress. I think that is
a virtuous mission”
Enterprise and its Business
Environment © Goodfellow
Publishers 2016

38. continued
•Social mobility; “business is a fantastic way for
someone from a modest background … to
improve their life and get ahead.”
•Creative destruction: inefficient and loss making
companies die … but productive companies tend
to create a virtuous circle: … attract talent, pay
more, make investors good returns, and can afford
to launch better products. This is called progress.”
•Creating a better future: “the inventive ability of
entrepreneurs to find solutions to … problems”
such as global warming and so forth.
•Entrepreneurship is about striving for a better
future –not just dreaming.

39. In Economic Terms….

to practice the art and science of
entrepreneurship”.

43. What Explains this Growth?
•Structural shift from manufacturing (large firm
dominated) to services (small firm dominated)
•Growth in personal, flexible, tailor-made services
•Restructuring by large firms –focus on core activities,
sub-contract non-core activities
•Technological change
•Scientific discoveries exploited by small firms
•Production and IT technologies have reduced the role of
economies of scale
•Low cost and access to communications technology (‘the great
equaliser’): access to information, distribution (‘the long tail’)

44. Growth Continued
•Importance of human capital rather than financial capital
as the basis for competitiveness
•Consumer choice –reaction against mass produced
products and services: individualism, demand for
authenticity, natural products (e.g. real ale beer) –growth
in market niches
•Deregulation of markets: e.g. in airlines, telecoms, media
•Personal choice –‘rebellion’, reaction against working in
large impersonal organisations, want to control own
destiny
•Availability of finance –venture capital
•Availability of support, advice and educationEnterprise and its Business

Environment © Goodfellow
Publishers 2016

62. Screening
•Systematic approach but avoid the paralysis with
analysis approach.
•Should screening be the same for every
business or change depending on the context?-
Service company’s think that ideas should be
generated as required rather than an ongoing
basis but still use financial, marketing,
management, strategy and resource implications
( Kelley & Storey 1999)
•Hard and fast rules presented by writers.
