THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY


Definition of an Entrepreneur : An entrepreneur is a person who undertakes to do a job Richard Cantillon (1755). The term entrepreneur is a French word first coined by Richard Cantillon. In Malaysia the term usahawan is used for entrepreneur.

THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY Definition of Entrepreneurship: Entrepreneurship involves not only the process that leads to the setting up of a business entity but also the expansion and development of an on going concern. The study of entrepreneurship is concerned with the entrepreneurial behavior, the dynamics of business set up and expansion and development.

THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY Adam Smith (1776) - An entrepreneur is a person who acts as agent in transforming demand into supply.
Jean Babtiste Say (1803) - An entrepreneur is a person who shifts resources from an area of low productivity to high productivity.

THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY


John Stuart Mill (1848) - An entrepreneur is a prime mover in the private enterprise. The entrepreneur is the fourth factor of production after land ,labor and capital.
Carl Menger (1871) - The entrepreneur acts as an economic agent who transforms resources into products and services. The entrepreneur transforms and gives added value.

THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY


Joseph Aloysius Schumpeter (1934) - An entrepreneur is an innovator. The economy moves through leaps and bounds and the prime mover is the entrepreneur through the process of creative destruction.
Alfred Marshall (1936) - The process of entrepreneurship or business development is incremental or evolutionary . It evolves from sole proprietorship to a public company.

THE EVOLUTION OF ENTREPRENEURSHIP THEORY


Ibnu Khaldun (Abdul Rahman Mohamed Khaldun) - The entrepreneur is seen as a knowledgeable individual and is instrumental in the development of a city-state where enterprise will emerge.
David McClelland - The entrepreneur is a person with a high need for achievement. This need for achievement is directly related to the process of entrepreneurship.

Monitoring the project
Identify risks, potential project problems, as early as possible Identify when constraints may be violated Ensure that contingency plans occur before unrecoverable problems occur Provide and receive project status for the phases and total project

Monitoring changes to workflows Monitoring system performance Controlling Changes

Creative Problem Solving (CPS)


CPS is a simple process that involves breaking down a problem to understand it, generating ideas to solve the problem and evaluating those ideas to find the most effective solutions

Steps in Creative Problem Solving


Clarify and Identify the problem Research the problem Formulate creative challenges Identify insights Generate ideas Combine and evaluate the ideas Draw up an action plan Do it! (i.e. implement the ideas)

Heuristics of Problem Solving


Heuristic problem solving are common sense rules drawn from experience, used to solve problems. General heuristics are cognitive rules of thumb that are useful in solving a great variety of problems. Heuristic problem solving involves finding a set of rules, or a procedure, that finds satisfactory solutions to a specific problem. (Why?)

Ill-structure
Problems for which there are no known algorithmic solutions are called ill-structured. A well structured problem has the following characteristics: All information relevant to the problem can be represented in an appropriate model. The model should include all feasible solutions There exists an algorithm for finding the optimal solution to the model. All data required should be economically practical to gather.

Heuristic Problem Solving


Random solutions Greedy solutions Exchanging heuristics Break-combine heuristics Improving our solutions Local optimization Iterated local search Simulated annealing

Brainstorming
Brainstorming can be effective way to generate lots of ideas on a specific issue and then determine which idea or ideas is the best solution.

Brainstorming requires a facilitator in order to guide the session. It should be energetic and openly collaborative.

Brainstorming
Step by step process of brainstorming:

Define your problem / issue Give yourself a time limit It must be written down, without any criticism Select your five best ideas best solve your problem, Criteria should start with the word should Give each idea a score (0-5 points) The idea with the highest score will best solve your problem. (Keep a record of all of your best ideas)

Synectics and Value Analysis


Synectics was formally created by William Gordon & George Prince
Synectics
Synectics is a problem solving methodology that stimulates thought processes of which the subject may be unaware. This method was developed by George M. Prince (April 5, 1918 - June 9, 2009)[1]and William J.J. Gordon, originating in the Arthur D. Little Invention Design Unit in the 1950s. They set up Synectics Inc. (now Synecticsworld) in and the methodology has evolved substantially in the ensuing 50 years.

Process
The process was derived from tape-recording (initially audio, later video) of thousands of meetings, analysis of the results and experiments with alternative ways of dealing with the obstacles to success in the meeting. "Success" was defined as getting a creative solution that the group was committed to implement. This history of sustained Research and Development provides a scientific foundation for the Synectics body of knowledge. Prince emphasized the importance of Creative Behaviour in reducing inhibitions and releasing the inherent creativity of everyone. He and his colleagues developed specific practices and meeting structures which help people to ensure that their constructive intentions are experienced positively by one another. The use of the Creative Behaviour tools extends the application of Synectics to many situations beyond invention sessions (particularly constructive resolution of conflict). Gordon emphasized the importance of "'metaphorical process' to make the familiar strange and the strange familiar". He expressed his central principle as: "Trust things that are alien, and alienate things that are trusted." This encourages, on the one hand, fundamental problem-analysis and, on the other hand, the alienation of the original problem through the creation of analogies. It is thus possible for new and surprising solutions to emerge. As an invention tool, Synectics invented a technique called "springboarding" for getting creative beginning ideas. For the development of beginning ideas, the method incorporates brainstorming and deepens and widens it with metaphor; it also adds an important evaluation process for Idea Development, which takes embryonic new ideas that are attractive but not yet feasible and builds them into new courses of action which have the commitment of the people who will implement them. Synectics is more demanding of the subject than brainstorming, as the steps involved mean that the process is more complicated and requires more time and effort. It is also much more rewarding because the end product is action not just ideas.

Step by Step Process of Synectics


Start with original problem statement Analyze the problem. Restate the problem. Formulate the problem as a single concrete target Generate, collect and record the first ideas that come to mind Fins a relevant analogy in one of the listed categories of analogies Ask yourself questions in order to explore the analogy Force fit various solutions to the reformulated problem statement Generate, collect and record the ideas Test and evaluate the ideas Develop the selected ideas into concepts Present your concepts to the point

Innovation
Innovation is defined as the ability to apply creative solutions to problems or opportunities to enhance or to enrich peoples lives. Innovation could take the form of
a new good a new method of production a new market a new source of supply of raw materials carrying out of a new organization

International Entrepreneurship Opportunities


With the globalization of the World economy, interest in international markets has increased manifolds and thereby observed enhanced entrepreneurial activity in this domain also.
Some new ventures are born global (such as IT firms in India)

Nature of International Entrepreneurship


International Entrepreneurship is the development of international new ventures or start ups that from inception engage in international business thus viewing their operating domain as international from initial stages of the firms operation.

Nature of International Entrepreneurship


It is the study of the nature ?& consequences of a firms risk taking behavior as it ventures into international markets. A business organization that from inception seeks to derive significant competitive advantage from the use of resources and sale of outputs in multiple countries.

Nature of International Entrepreneurship


International Entrepreneurship is a firm level activity that crosses national borders and focuses on the relationship between businesses and the international environments in which they operate. Combination of innovative, proactive and risjk seeking behavior that crosses national borders.

Examples
The liberalization and globalization of Indian business has seen a lot of increased activity in this field, venture based con specialized resources are able to capitalize on markets elsewhere Dr. Reddys Lab Biocon And many more..

Importance of International Business to the firm


International Business is all business transactions private and governmental that involve two or more countries. Companies that engage in some form of international business are involved in exporting than in any other type of business transaction.

Importance of International Business to the firm


Another core Issue is the companys growth and the importance of networking and interaction i.e. collaborations, sub-contracting, etc. Diverse Markets with vibrant and varied cultural heritage.

International Vs Domestic Entrepreneurship


The dimensions on which the international and domestic entrepreneurship differ are basically to do with the reasons to go international as compared to just focus attention on domestic markets. The main reason for organizations to tread across borders has noticeably been to acquire access to larger markets. This requires making alterations to your offerings at times.

Stages of Economic Development


Rostow's Stages of Development
Walt Whitman Rostow (1916- 2003)
In 1960, the American Economic Historian, W. W. Rostow, suggested that countries passed through five stages of economic development. Stage 1 -- Traditional Society The economy is dominated by subsistence activity where output is consumed by producers rather than traded. Any trade is carried out by barter where goods are exchanged directly for other goods. Agriculture is the most important industry and production is labor intensive using only limited quantities of capital. Resource allocation is determined very much by traditional methods of production. Stage 2 -- Transitional Stage (the preconditions for takeoff) Increased specialization generates surpluses for trading. There is an emergence of a transport infrastructure to support trade. As incomes, savings and investment grow entrepreneurs emerge. External trade also occurs concentrating on primary products. Stage 3 -- Take Off Industrialization increases, with workers switching from the agricultural sector to the manufacturing sector. Growth is concentrated in a few regions of the country and in one or two manufacturing industries. The level of investment reaches over 10% of GNP. The economic transitions are accompanied by the evolution of new political and social institutions that support the industrialization. The growth is self-sustaining as investment leads to increasing incomes in turn generating more savings to finance further investment. Stage 4 -- Drive to Maturity The economy is diversifying into new areas. Technological innovation is providing a diverse range of investment opportunities. The economy is producing a wide range of goods and services and there is less reliance on imports. Stage 5 -- High Mass Consumption The economy is geared towards mass consumption. The consumer durable industries flourish. The service sector becomes increasingly dominant. According to Rostow, development requires substantial investment in capital. For the economies of LDCs to grow, the right conditions for such investment would have to be created. If aid is given or foreign direct investment occurs at stage 3 the economy needs to have reached stage 2. If the stage 2 has been reached then injections of investment may lead to rapid growth. Limitations Many development economists argue that Rostows's model was developed with Western cultures in mind and not applicable to LDCs. It addition its generalized nature makes it somewhat limited. It does not set down the detailed nature of the pre-conditions for growth. In reality, policy makers are unable to clearly identify stages as they merge together. Thus as a predictive model it is not very helpful. Perhaps its main use is to highlight the need for investment. Like many of the other models of economic developments it is essentially a growth model and does not address the issue of development in the wider context.

Stages of Economic Development

Stages of Economic Development


The Stages of Economic Development and Entrepreneurship
In his classic text W.W. Rostow suggested that countries go through five stages of economic growth: (1) the traditional society (2) the preconditions for take-off (3) the take-off (4) the drive to maturity and (5) the age of high mass-consumption. While these stages are a simplified way of looking at the development of modern economies, they identify critical events. While Rostow focused on the age of high mass-consumption, Porter following recent developments in the Rostow (1960). economics of innovation. Michael Porter8 has provided a modern rendition of this approach by identifying three stages of development: (1) a factor-driven stage, (2) an efficiencydriven stage and (3) an innovation-driven stage. The factor-driven stage is marked by high rates of agricultural self-employment. Countries in this stage compete through low-cost efficiencies in the production of commodities or low value-added products. Sole proprietorshipsi.e. the self-employedprobably account for most small manufacturing firms and service firms. Almost all economies experience this stage of economic development. These countries neither create knowledge for innovation nor use knowledge for exporting. To move into the second stage, the efficiency-driven stage, countries must increase their production efficiency and educate the workforce to be able to adapt in the subsequent technological development phase: the preconditions for take-off plays a crucial role. The drive to efficiency describes the first transition that is predominantly institutional in nature. To compete in the efficiency-driven stage, countries must have efficient productive practices in large markets, which allow companies to exploit economies of scale. Industries in this stage are manufacturers that provide basic goods and services. The efficiency-driven stage is marked by decreasing rates of self-employment. In the efficiency-driven economy capital and labor play a crucial role in productivity and the focus is on technology, in the decision making process. For over a century there has been a trend in economic activityexhibited in virtually every developing countrytoward larger firms. In 1957 Robert Solow at MIT modified Douglass earlier findings on the contributin of capital and labor by a kind of exponential growth factor suggested by Schumpeter early on in the Century. As the Nobel Laureate Paul Samuelson (2009, 76) recently pointed out, This residual Solow proclaimed, demonstrated that much of post-Newtonian enhanced real income had to be attributed to innovational change (rather than, as Douglas believed, being due to deepening of the capital/labor K/L ratio). The transition to the innovation driven stage is characterized by increased activity by individual agents. In the innovation-driven stage knowledge provides the key input. In this stage the focus shifts from firms to agents in possession of new knowledge.9 The agent decides to start a new firm based on expected net returns from a new product. The innovation-driven stage is biased towards high value added industries in which entrepreneurial activity is important. Institutions dominate the first two stages of development. In fact, innovation accounts for only about 5 percent of economic activity in factor-driven economies and rises to 10 percent in the efficiency driven stage. However, in the innovation-driven stage when opportunities have been exhausted in factors and efficiency, innovation accounts for 30 percent of economic activity. We see an S-shaped relationship between entrepreneurship and economic development because in the first transition stage entrepreneurship plays a
