Work and Own a Company!

.

A RECENT newspaper article talked about how some companies are making entrepreneurs of their own employees yet keeping them in their original jobs!

The new trend in corporate HR retention strategy is to encourage employees to turn to entrepreneurship while on the job!

This is interesting. The idea is to address a growing talent crunch by letting managers become entrepreneurs so they can do something different apart from their regular jobs.

If you had a choice, what would you do?

Have you thought of starting a business? Do you have what it takes to become a businessperson? Many people dream of building their own empire or even a small company and running it.

Only a few achieve this. Why? Most people blame circumstances and unavailability of capital but, often, it is the inability to switch mindsets from being employed to having one's own enterprise! It is a myth that running a firm is easier than buttering up a boss on a daily basis.

If you have family or friends who own companies or conglomerates, they will tell you how hard it is to manage. You could exchange horror stories about being employed, having to deal with layers of bureaucracy for simple things and dealing with difficult bosses! But you also have to deliver results and have periodic performance reviews to deal with!

Understand the difference between being an entrepreneur and an employee. Figure out which one you are. People change as they grow. And if not now, you should know what it takes to be an employee or an entrepreneur.
