On
the old question - entrepreneurs are born or made? - economists and
cognitive psychologists have contributed over the past two decades,
claiming that the “entrepreneurship gene” does not exist and that
the attitudes of behavior that lead to entrepreneurial thinking are,
in fact, influenced by exogenous factors.
They
therefore speaks of the importance of the family, the society in
which a person is born and the schools that he/she attended and,
later, the models that he/she meets in the course of his/her lives or
that are, in some way, proposed.
It
is however necessary to give a further clarification saying that, in
reality, at birth everyone has a business potential. This can be seen
in children; in fact, any parent face every day their stubbornness,
their enthusiasm, their desire to learn and to do, their inclination
towards new worlds, new adventures, their imagination, their
curiosity and
their desire to experiment. These are behavioral attitudes typical of
the entrepreneurial
mindset. What happens then, growing up?
In
high school, many times we find
guys and
girls with very poor motivation,
disenchanted by life, from the future, who do not chase their dreams
but only more tranquility and
serenity. The only possible explanation is that the entire
educational
system (meaning,
with this term,
inside and outside schools)
tifle
these attitudes instead of
cultivating
them.
By doing so, it
damage both individuals
and the
society.
Actually,
we should accompany the new generations towards their personal
entrepreneurial style, letting them know what they want in order to
get to
grow in a more conscious and
sharp way
to
achieve
their goals. Only in this way they
will
be more satisfied and happier, because they will have built something
that closely represents their values, their beliefs.
There
are
a lot of
tools to
do it.
We
only
have
to use them.
