Compare and contrast three truths about entrepreneurship and your own experience with entrepreneurs. Ans: This answer will be different for each student depending on his or her experience with entrepreneurs. Truth #1: Entrepreneurship is not reserved for startups. Truth #2: Entrepreneurs do not have a special set of personality traits. Truth #3: Entrepreneurship can be taught (it’s a method that requires practice). Truth #4: Entrepreneurs are not extreme risk-takers. Truth #5: Entrepreneurs collaborate more than they compete. Truth #6: Entrepreneurs act more than they plan. Truth #7: Entrepreneurship is a life skill. Learning Objective: 1.2. List the seven lesser-known truths about entrepreneurship. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Entrepreneurship May Be Different From What You Think Difficulty Level: Hard AACSB Standard: Analytical thinking 3. Compare “entrepreneurship” with “startup.” Ans: The term startup came into vogue during the 1990s dot-com bubble when a plethora of web-based companies were born. While the term has various meanings, we subscribe to Steve Blank’s definition of startup: a temporary organization in search of a scalable business model. In the traditional view of startups, anyone who starts a business is called an entrepreneur. The entrepreneur creates a business based on research to assess the validity of an idea or business model. The business may be funded by seed money from family members or investors, but usually it is funded by the entrepreneurs themselves. If the business is successful, the startup does not remain a startup. It can develop into an organization in its own right, be merged with another organization, or be bought or acquired by another company. In our parody example, lone-wolf Bob created a technology startup in his parents’ garage and sold it to a hugely successful organization. This traditional view of the startup, however, is not the only path for entrepreneurs. The truth is that entrepreneurs are everywhere, from corporations to franchises, to for-profit and nonprofit organizations, to family enterprises. Learning Objective: 1.2. List the seven lesser-known truths about entrepreneurship. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Entrepreneurship Is Not Reserved for Startups Difficulty Level: Hard AACSB Standard: Application of knowledge 4. Discuss the statement “Entrepreneurship can be taught (it’s a method that requires practice.” Do you agree? Why or why not? Ans: Many entrepreneurship courses are taught as a process, which involves identifying an opportunity, understanding resource requirements, acquiring resources, planning, implementing, and harvesting (exiting a business). But the word process assumes known inputs and known outputs, as in a manufacturing process. A process implies you will get to a specific destination. For example, building a car on an assembly line is a manufacturing process. You know all the parts, you know how they fit together, and you know the type of car you will have at the end. A process is quite predictable. Entrepreneurship is not predictable and, therefore, cannot adequately be taught as a process. Instead, a method or practice approach represents a body of skills or practices that together constitute a toolkit for entrepreneurial action. The entrepreneurial method requires consistent practice so that knowledge and expertise can be continuously developed and applied to future endeavors. Learning Objective: 1.2. List the seven lesser-known truths about entrepreneurship. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Entrepreneurship Can Be Taught Difficulty Level: Hard AACSB Standard: Analytical thinking 5. Discuss the Act–Learn–Build model as it relates to risk-takers. Ans: Risk is very personal and relative. Things always seem more risky from the outside looking in because we really don’t know what calculations were made to take the next step. In fact, most entrepreneurs are very calculated risk-takers and gauge what they are willing to lose with every step taken. They practice a cycle of act–learn–build that encourages taking small actions in order to learn and build that learning into the next action (see Figure 1.1). Entrepreneurship should never be a zero-sum game—never an all-or-nothing decision. It’s not about ascending the summit without ropes or oxygen. It just looks that way from the outside. Learning Objective: 1.2. List the seven lesser-known truths about entrepreneurship. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Truth #4: Entrepreneurs are not extreme risk-takers Difficulty Level: Medium AACSB Standard: Analytical thinking 6. Discuss the confined re-emergence entrepreneur and his or her opportunities.

There is also the development of the service- and knowledge-based economy dominated by technologyrelated enterprises, a critical role in the changing economy. Learning Objective: 1.3.

Discuss “social entrepreneurship” and describe the differences between entrepreneurial ventures and nonprofit organizations. Ans: There has been some debate as to how to define social entrepreneurship. Some argue that all types of entrepreneurship are social, while others define it as purely an activity of the nonprofit sector. These blurred lines imply that entrepreneurs are forced to choose between making a social or an economic impact. We contend that social entrepreneurs can do both. It is possible to address a social issue and make a profit— keeping a company economically stable ensures its capability consistently meets the needs of its customers without relying on fundraising or other methods to keep it afloat. We therefore define social entrepreneurship as the process of sourcing innovative solutions for particular problems. Learning Objective: 1.4. Compare and contrast the different forms of entrepreneurship in practice today. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Social Entrepreneurship Difficulty Level: Medium AACSB Standard: Social responsibility 9. Analyze the benefit corporation (B Corp.) and describe its purpose and role for entrepreneurs. Ans: A sub-category of social entrepreneurship is the Benefit Corporation, or B-Corp. This is a form of organization certified by the nonprofit B Lab which ensures that strict standards of social and environmental performance, accountability, and transparency are met. The voluntary certification is designed for for-profit companies aiming to achieve social goals alongside business ones. To be certified as a B-Corp, the organization is rated on how its employees are treated, its impact on the environment, and how it benefits the community in which it operates. B-Corp certification ensures that the for-profit company fulfils its social mission as well as protecting it from lawsuits from stakeholders that may claim that the company is spending more time or resources on social issues rather than maximizing profit. Learning Objective: 1.4. Compare and contrast the different forms of entrepreneurship in practice today. Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Social Entrepreneurship Difficulty Level: Hard AACSB Standard: Social responsibility 10. Describe family enterprise and apply the concept to your business concept. Ans: This essay will have different answers depending on the student’s business concept. Here is the information on family enterprise: A family enterprise is a business which is owned and managed by multiple family members. What makes family enterprising part of the portfolio of entrepreneurship types is that each generation has an opportunity to bring the organization forward in new, innovative ways. An entrepreneurial agenda to move the family business forward is essential to business survival, as demonstrated by the fact that the survival rate of family businesses transitioning from the first to the second generation is less than 30%. However, another 50% of family businesses don’t survive when they move from the second to third generation. This may be because the family owners become stuck in the old ways of doing things and are unwilling to change their business structure as a result. Many leading organizations which are family businesses are generally considered to be more stable, not only because of their past history and experience, but because of their ability to take a long-term view, which inspires commitment and loyalty from their employees. Yet, a long-term view that becomes stagnant is detrimental and can lead the company into a downward spiral. Family enterprises are the dominant form of business organization worldwide. It is estimated that 80% to 90% of US businesses are family-owned or controlled by a family and 65% of the US workforce is employed by a family business (see Figure 1.3). Widely known businesses such as Wal-Mart in the US, supermarket chain Carrefour in France, and auto company Fiat in Italy are all long-standing family businesses that continue to go from strength to strength. To continue their cycle of growth and continuity, family members must pass on their entrepreneurial mindsets as well as their business ethos. It is this mindset that ensures the survival of the family business for many years to come. Learning Objective: 1.4. Compare and contrast the different forms of entrepreneurship in practice today.
