How can you gain an entrepreneurial mindset<\/a>? How are entrepreneurship and innovation different?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Entrepreneurship and innovation are buzzwords used so often that their true meanings have eroded. Peter F. Drucker argues that entrepreneurship requires more than simply starting a new business<\/a> and that innovation takes many shapes beyond inventing new products or techniques. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let’s look at Drucker’s definitions of innovation and entrepreneurship to understand how to have an entrepreneurial mindset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Understanding the Entrepreneurial Mindset<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is an entrepreneurial mindset? Having this type of mindset<\/a> means creating new markets<\/a> and new customers.<\/strong> An entrepreneur brings about change by introducing novel products, services, or business models that disrupt the status quo. This ability isn\u2019t limited to small startups\u2014even large corporations can be entrepreneurs. Likewise, entrepreneurship isn\u2019t confined to the business world\u2014nonprofits can also introduce new ideas and challenge the traditional ways they operate. At its core, entrepreneurship is a mindset that embraces change as a normal and necessary force in society, rather than something to be feared or ignored.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: The more common use of the word \u201centrepreneur\u201d refers to anyone who starts a new business. In Rework<\/em><\/a>, Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson reject the idea that entrepreneurship has any <\/em>meaning beyond owning a new business<\/a>. Likewise, in The Lean Startup<\/em><\/a>, Eric Ries links entrepreneurship with introducing a new product or service<\/a>, adding that entrepreneurs often do so in times when success is uncertain. Drucker directly refutes these ideas by defining entrepreneurship as a creative act. He says that startups aren\u2019t entrepreneurial if they don\u2019t break any new ground, and that smart entrepreneurs don\u2019t embrace uncertainty\u2014instead, they rely on hard work and research, as we\u2019ll see later in this guide.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going hand-in-hand with entrepreneurship, innovation <\/em><\/strong>is the tool that entrepreneurs use to create value and drive progress.<\/strong> Drucker explains that innovation involves either changing something that wasn\u2019t a resource into <\/em>a resource, or changing the way an existing resource is used in a way that increases its value. Innovation isn\u2019t limited to technological advancements\u2014it can also manifest as new social institutions or ways of doing business. Successful innovators identify and leverage emerging trends and opportunities before others. Rather than creating those changes from scratch, most innovators capitalize on existing shifts in society and the market, which they leverage to introduce novel products and solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Drucker chiefly judges innovations by whether or not they lead to business success, but in The Innovator\u2019s Dilemma<\/em><\/a>, Clayton M. Christensen distinguishes innovations by how they impact the market.<\/a> Sustaining innovations<\/a><\/em> improve on the performance of an industry\u2019s existing products, catering to its established market, whereas disruptive innovations<\/em> overturn the economics and assumptions a market is based on. Disruptive innovations don\u2019t necessarily appeal to an industry\u2019s existing customers\u2014instead, they open up entirely new markets, meeting Drucker\u2019s definition of entrepreneurship.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gearing Up for Innovation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Innovation and entrepreneurship don\u2019t come naturally to most organizations, and yet it\u2019s a necessity in modern business for leaders, managers, and employees to think like entrepreneurs. Drucker argues that even successful companies must make a purposeful effort to invest in innovation and establish structures that promote entrepreneurship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Embracing an entrepreneurial mindset is a challenge for established and successful companies. The real impediment to entrepreneurship isn\u2019t a company\u2019s size, but its inertia. <\/strong>Successful businesses<\/a> give the bulk of their resources to maintaining their existing operations, leaving little room for innovative side projects. However, preserving the status quo can be deadly, since disruptive innovations can undermine even the most stable companies. Therefore, Drucker argues that businesses have a social obligation to innovate, since their stability impacts jobs and the economy. Overcoming this inertia requires a deliberate effort on a business\u2019s part to divert resources to entrepreneurial endeavors, even if they don\u2019t seem immediately important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To enable innovation, businesses must restructure themselves to reward entrepreneurial thinking. <\/strong>Drucker says to start by reframing your company\u2019s mindset toward change. Instead of viewing it as a threat, actively empower employees<\/a> to seek out opportunities for new products, services, and markets to enter. Innovation should be a routine operation, with goals, timelines, and dedicated resources. Additionally, businesses should proactively analyze and project the life expectancy of their existing products and services to identify areas most in need of innovation. By doing this, your business can develop a comprehensive innovation plan for success<\/a> in an ever-changing marketplace.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
