A Thought to Ponder "I plan. 9 create. J tabe rab J bee my passion J em an ENTREPRENEUR.” —efronymos ce BE INFORMED Anna's interest in business started when she was a fourth-grade pupil. She helped hermotherin preparing their cookie products andselling them to their stall in the supermarket every day. When she graduated from senior high school, she learned to devise her own strategies in selling and to improve the ingredients of the cookies her mother taught her. In college, she managed to have her own coffee shop, which offers several kinds of desserts. Can we consider Anna as an entrepreneur? Is selling cookies and other desserts can be called entrepreneurship? Unit 1: ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND ICT{ Entrepreneurship is a way of exchanging products or services. It can also be described as the task of managing a business to improve the life of an individual. This word coincides with different business activities, which can be in the form of producing or serving tangible or intangible products. An entrepreneur is a person who. plans, organizes, manages, supervises, and performs the functions of an owner who is directly related to the risks and uncertainties of a business or an enterprise for the purpose of having an income or profit. He or she acts as a visionary, an innovator, and a change agent. You can simply say that an entrepreneur plays the role of an actor while entrepreneurship is the act. The concept of entrepreneur is somewhat related to the concept of manager. However, it can differ in many areas. For instance, the income of an entrepreneur depends on the earning or progress of the company while a manager’s salary is fixed. To better distinguish the difference between an entrepreneur and a manager, look at the table below.
