During my entrepreneurial course at Empretec, I’ve worked a lot with personal entrepreneurial competencies. This is mainly a methodology of behavioral change that helps entrepreneurs put their ideas into action and helps fledgling businesses to grow.

I decided to share you the 10 competencies that any entrepreneur should work with. 

  1. Opportunity-seeking and initiative
  2. Entrepreneurs seek opportunities and take the initiative to transform them into business situations.
  3. Persistence
    When most people tend to abandon an activity, successful entrepreneurs stick with it.
  4. Fulfilling of commitments
    Entrepreneurs keep their promises, no matter how great the personal sacrifice.
  5. Demand for quality and efficiency
    Entrepreneurs try to do something better, faster or cheaper.
  6. Calculated risk-taking
    Taking calculated risks is one of the primary concepts in entrepreneurship.
  7. Goal-setting
    This is the most important competency because none of the rest will function without it. Entrepreneurs set goals and objectives which are meaningful and challenging.
  8. Information-seeking
    Entrepreneurs gather information about their clients, suppliers, technology and opportunities.
  9. Systematic planning and monitoring
    Systematic behavior means acting in a logical way. Planning is deciding what to do. Monitoring means checking.
  10. Persuasion and networking
    Entrepreneurs influence other people to follow them or do something for them.
  11. Independence and self-confidence
    Entrepreneurs have a quiet self-assurance in their capability or potential to do something.
