LEARNING CONTENT Introduction: Entrepreneurial Mind

Entrepreneurial Mindset is a term applied to a way of thinking. It’s about creativity, design thinking, and development of innovative solutions to problems. While these ideas can be applied to business development, the entrepreneurial mindset can be applied to any situation in which ideas, creativity, and focus on stakeholder needs can be used to solve real world problems.

Lesson Proper: InnoPreneurship: Innovation + Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurs:

•Innovators or creative minds that can make things happen.

“Making things happen is not the same as making new things happen.” ▪ ▪

An owner of a business who invests his/her resources to bring idea to life, setting the direction that transforms that idea into reality, thus providing and gaining value that balances effort, purposes and profit. Different from a corporate entrepreneur who does everything like an entrepreneur but does not have a financial stake in the business. THE RICHEST PEOPLE IN THE PHILIPPINES ARE MOSTLY ENTREPRENEURS. Check out these eight individuals, all of them are successful Filipino entrepreneurs, https://business.inquirer.net/273445/eight-successful-filipino-entrepreneurs-who-started-small

You could study well, work for others forever, but you might miss the opportunities to do more for yourself and for your family. You only have one life to live and leave a legacy. What will you choose to do? 5 Components of an entrepreneur 1. Owner who invests resources – risk taking 2. Brings an idea to life – idea may or may not come from the entrepreneur, but turning an idea into revenue maximization entails defining the best options. 3. Setting direction – getting quality information and making choices from these pieces of information 4. Making things happen – ensure all the interdependent elements are in harmony 5. Adding value – entails financial understanding ENTR 1013 – The Entrepreneurial Mind | 3

Who is an Innovator?

•A person who introduces a new process, product, services or a business model to the marketplace that becomes commercially successful.

2 Elements 1. New 2. Commercial success – requires customer acceptance An innovator is different from an inventor who creates something new but has not attained commercial success. Business + Personal Plan: A firm need to have a business plan 1. Written document (for outside inventors) 2. Simpler outline of a business model (for internal guidance) 3. It provides the direction where the firm is going. Prosperity for All: Profit is a requisite for a business. Wealth Conversion Principle: 3 elements to create profit for a business idea:

• • • •

Business starts with an idea (based on the vision of the proponent). Then, investment of cash (or the equivalent of cash) is needed to bring the idea to life. The cash is used to buy Inventories Inventories are sold, often with some credit terms, and when these Receivables are collected, they are converted back to cash. It is a cycle with each cycle adding greater value to the firm.

3 S’s Requisites to prosperity To make the wealth conversion principle come alive 1. Squad - form a team, which includes your choice of business partners. 2. Spread – need to ensure that products are sold are priced higher than the cost. 3. Speed – create a system to manage account receivables effectively. Key Factors to Successful Entrepreneurship 1. Commitment – a strong drive to achieve goals and objectives through focus and pro-active followthrough ENTR 1013 – The Entrepreneurial Mind | 4

2. Coordination – the organization of different people or groups coming from various functions to attain efficiency, effectiveness and/or impact. 3. Competency – having a combination of ability, attitude and behavior to do particular role or job repetitively well. 4-Gate Model to Prosperity (House of Prosperity) 1. 2. 3. 4.

12 M’s to Successful Entrepreneurship Gate 1: Preparation (IQ - Intelligence quotient: capacity to think and reason) 1. Money – cash component Success Story: Butch Salvador was broke and had Php10 left, just enough to make photocopies of his business leaflet. He knew a car repairman and uses the parking lot of a mall for prospecting and left his marketing leaflets on windshields of ten cars with dents, which clearly needed some repair. He decided on this strategy due to lack of resources. One out of ten came and the next customer saw them repairing car dents outside the car owner’s house. From this, Car Magic was born. 2. Model – the business model or the big picture plan to generate sales revenue profit, cash flow, growth, and how to scale up. 3. Mentors – are the experienced advisers who can add value to the entrepreneur by giving sound guidance to increase the competency, lessen the risks, and help open more opportunities for the entrepreneur to succeed. Example: International furniture designer Kenneth Cobonpue was encourage by his mother (who was already in the furniture business) to build his own toys when he was a child. Gate 2: Marketing (CQ- Creativity quotient: the capacity to innovate) 1. Mindset – is about beliefs. That being an innopreneur is better than being just an entrepreneur. -one must have a mindset to find a novel differentiation or Unique Selling Proposition (USP) that solves a real problem, by not selling the same thing as everybody else. ENTR 1013 – The Entrepreneurial Mind | 5

-That it is possible to earn dollars not just as an OFW but as an exporter. 2. Market – a set of buyers that an entrepreneur focuses attention on. -it also includes the channel where the target market can see what is being offered. Example: AHEAD tutorial focused on students doing well instead of students having low grades when they started. To change the negative perception to tutorials as a last resort for students who were failing in school. By focusing on achievers, they were able to change perception, gained status and made tutorials something students looked forward to. 3. Message - brand positioning that will be communicated to persuade a target customer to buy. (Example: Iphone vs Myphone) Gate 3: Execution (EQ- Emotional Quotient: the capacity to sense and to emphatize) 1. Machinery- it is about an organization structure that can deliver the value planned; hence, the organizational structure can only be identified after the value proposition is formulated. 2. Methods – are about systems and processes that allow the entrepreneur information and control. 3. Management Skills – about the ability to carry out the plans through people, rewards and leadership. Gate 4: Self-Leadership (AQ- Adversity Quotient: the capacity to recover and make progress) -it is needed when problems and obstacles are experienced because of the nature of entrepreneurship, where risks and uncertainty is expected. Example: Billionaire Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba. • • • • •

Started from when he failed a key primary test twice, and failed three times while in middle school. He also applied to study in Harvard and rejected ten times. Got rejected 30 times in applying for a job. 25 people applied in KFC and they accepted 24 except him. Five people applied for a police job and they accepted four except him.

But he persisted, not giving up on himself. When faced with adversity, stop giving excuses and start finding solutions to keep improving. Not just leadership in business but also in one’s personal life. 1. Moving forward – having the grit to continue the business despite obstacles. 2. Mission – about purpose or the reason why the business exists beyond making a profit. Example: USLT providing hundreds of scholarships to students 3. Mastery – building capabilities, knowing the self, the environment as well as the operations. Entrepreneurship Key Factors Matrix ENTR 1013 – The Entrepreneurial Mind | 6
