Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 105 SOCIAL SCIENCES ASSESSMENT OF GLOBAL GREAT ENTREPRENEURS’ LIFE: LESSON FOR NEW ENTREPRENEURS FOR SUCCESS IN 21ST CENTURY Dr. Hossain K. Vice Chancellor, Bangladesh Maritime University Dhaka, Bangladesh https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.17492594 Abstract World resource is limited and always there is a constraint. Any founders of venture/business can control only their own human, social, and financial capital at a new venture’s outset or startup. Entrepreneurship is a long, challenging journey, not an overnight success story. Great entrepreneurs emphasize qualities like motivation, innovation, passion, patience, balance, self-confidence, and embracing failure as a learning opportunity, rather than a setback. They focus on a long-term vision over quick riches, prioritizing customers and their product or service over investors and they always take some amount of risk. New founders of a venture/business can learn to adopt an entrepreneurial mindset, demonstrate unwavering commitment, be flexible and adaptable, maintain brilliant communication, and stay focused on providing value to the world to build a long-lasting, purposeful and successful business. Execution risk relates to the entrepreneur’s ability to attract employees and partners who can implement the venture’s plans. The potential of entrepreneurship to drive economic growth is significant, applicable to individual nations and the global landscape, provided that favorable conditions are in place and individuals pursue entrepreneurship with the appropriate motivations. Entrepreneurs, whether operating independently or collaboratively, identify opportunities within both their personal and professional spheres. They develop hypotheses regarding methods to provide value to customers and conduct systematic experiments to verify their concepts in 21st century, where technological advancement is crucial. Innovation and tech modernization frequently correlate with successful entrepreneurship. Many entrepreneurs bootstrap and they keep expenditures to a bare minimum while investing only their own time and their personal funds. In some cases, this is adequate to bring a new venture to the point where it becomes self-sustaining from internally generated cash flow. With most high-potential ventures, however, founders must mobilize more resources than they control personally and the venture eventually will require production facilities, distribution channels, working capital, and many more. This investigative paper will assess the life of great entrepreneurs around the globe and analyses their grooming, struggling and developing narrative along with their successful story and ideas for success of new entrepreneurs. Keywords: Venture, Entrepreneur, entrepreneurship, innovation, technology, risk, success 1. Introduction The English word entrepreneur originates from the French word "entreprendre," meaning "to undertake," which leaves considerable scope for creativity and significance in its application. 22 Stevenson, widely known as an expert and a professor and pioneer in entrepreneurship studies at Harvard Business School (HBS), has defined entrepreneurship as the “pursuit of opportunity beyond resources controlled.” 23 Entrepreneurship encompasses a diverse array of fields, including economics and incentives, markets, management and opportunity, processes, sociology and influence, norms, psychology and motivation, anthropology and history, values and culture, regionalism, regulation and firm structure, research and development, as well as technology and engineering, among others. They develop hypotheses regarding methods to provide value to customers and conduct systematic experiments to verify their concepts. 24 Tom Eisenmann, another HBS professor, explains that "beyond resources 22 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11301-02000193-7, accessed on 12 Sep 2025 23 https://www.amazon.com/Howards-Gift-Uncommon-Wisdom-Inspire/dp/1250004241/, accessed on 12 Sep 2025 24 https://www.amazon.com/Howards-Gift-Uncommon-Wisdom-Inspire/dp/1250004241/, accessed on 25 Sep 2025 controlled" means resource limitations. The founders of a new business are solely responsible for their own financial, social, and human resources at the outset. Many entrepreneurs employ a strategy known as "bootstrapping," in which they invest their own time and, if necessary, their personal funds, while keeping expenses to a minimum. 25 Stanford University's Stanford Center provides a little more straightforward definition for Professional Development: "At its core, entrepreneurship pertains to an individual or a small consortium of partners who embark on an innovative venture to establish a new business. An individual with entrepreneurial aspirations diligently pursues a specific business opportunity, taking on the highest level of risk linked to the endeavor. This individual is likely to benefit the most if the project is successful. 26 Joseph Schumpeter, a former professor at Harvard University and Austrian political 25 https://hbr.org/2013/01/what-is-entrepreneurship, accessed on 12 Jul 2025 26 https://online.stanford.edu/what-is-entrepreneurship, accessed on 12 Jul 2025
106 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 economist and Finance Minister, 27 stated, "The fundamental impulse that keeps the capital engine in motion comes from the new consumers' goods, the new methods of production and transportation, and the new markets (which are known as the process) continually revolutionize from within, incessantly destroying the old one and incessantly creating a new one." The fundamental reality of capitalism is this process of Creative Destruction. 28 Entrepreneurship is widely recognized as a key driver of economic progress. 29 Entrepreneurship is a broad term that encompasses the initiation of a new venture. However, scholars and policymakers have been in controversy for an extended period regarding its precise definition. An entrepreneur is a person who starts a new venture, taking on the majority of the risks and receiving the majority of the rewards. Social entrepreneurship may endeavor to generate both financial gain and societal benefit; however, the outcomes are frequently inconsistent. 30 The history of the word entrepreneurship is fascinating and scholars have indeed parsed its meaning. 31 Many profit improvement opportunities are not novel–and thus are not entrepreneurial–for example, raising a product’s price or, once a firm has a scalable sales strategy, hiring more reps. 32 New entrepreneurs should create a business that makes a positive impact on the world, and the financial rewards will often follow. Financing risk relates to whether external capital will be available on reasonable terms. New entrepreneur’s task is to manage this uncertainty, while recognizing that certain risks cannot be influenced by their actions. 33 Adam Smith's theory of economic growth is based on the notion that a country's prosperity is determined by its whole output, rather than just gold or agriculture. He thought that economic progress is driven by higher productivity, principally through labor division or work specialization and capital accumulation. 34 Smith's theory emphasizes free markets, competition, and self-interest as drivers of economic growth. Within this framework, entrepreneurial activity is a fundamental force for global development. Consequently, the study of entrepreneurship 27 Shionoya, Yuichi (2007).

This intellectual diffusion has resulted in a fractured, yet rapidly growing, field of study. Its academic origins are often traced to Joseph Schumpeter's arrival at Harvard University in 1932. In 1946, he established the Research Center for Entrepreneurial History in collaboration with Arthur Cole. 35 The next year, Myles Mace gave 188 Harvard Business School students what might have been the first entrepreneurship course in the United States. 36 Entrepreneurship education (EE) refers to specialized training designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and motivation to pursue entrepreneurial success across various disciplines. Since its inception, the integration of such programs within higher education has seen remarkable growth. Nevertheless, EE is accessible at all levels of education, from primary or secondary institutions to graduate university programs. 37 Entrepreneurs are passionate and fully engaged in everything they do. They believe in themselves, remain dedicated, and have strong confidence in their projects. At times, this focus and conviction may come across as stubbornness, but it is balanced by their dedication and consistent discipline. 38 When he has a deep passion for his work and the confidence to succeed, it is essential to pair it with disciplined execution. Successful entrepreneurs are known for their exceptional discipline, which in their chosen endeavors can often be compared to military-grade precision. 39 Being objective in his business is never easy, especially when he is deeply passionate about its success. However, it is essential to remain dispassionate and impartial when making decisions, as bias, sentiment, and emotion can ultimately lead to poor choices. 40 One of the most important qualities of entrepreneurs is self-discipline. Being self-disciplined means putting in the necessary work even when he doesn’t feel like it. For those balancing a day job alongside a startup, this often involves working long hours to ensure the business receives the attention it needs to thrive. There will be times when he needs to motivate himself to wake up early or stay up late to 33 https://hbr.org/2013/01/what-is-entrepreneurship, accessed on 25 Sep 2025 34 Spengler, J. J.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 107 move his venture forward. 41 While self-discipline is essential, it is equally important to maintain balance and avoid overworking to the point of burnout. Entrepreneurs also possess a growth mindset—the belief that skills and intelligence can be developed over time. While some qualities may come naturally to certain individuals, continuous personal development is what ultimately drives success. He can cultivate a growth mindset by reframing failure as a learning opportunity, recognizing his limitations, and setting clear goals for self-improvement. 42 Entrepreneurship can fuel economic growth under the right conditions and when people become entrepreneurs for the right reasons. It's not a magic bullet for economic growth, however, particularly in less-developed economies. 43 Technical, social and small product/industrial entrepreneurship can attempt to deliver both profits and societal good although often with mixed results. 44 The level of economic development of a country can affect whether entrepreneurship will lead to greater economic growth there. Entrepreneurship is related to starting a business. Its precise definition has long been a matter of debate among scholars and policymakers. 45 We live in an era in which innovation and entrepreneurship seem omnipresent and global in nature, particularly in the area like Silicon Valley or Research. But many metrics of economic growth, such as productivity growth and business dynamism, have been at best modest in recent years. 46 The resolution of this apparent paradox is dramatic heterogeneity across sectors, with some industries seeing robust innovation and entrepreneurship and others seeing stagnation. 47 By construction, the impact of innovation and entrepreneurship on overall economic performance is the cumulative impact of their effects on individual sectors. Understanding the potential for growth in the aggregate economy depends, therefore, on understanding the sector-by-sector potential for growth. 48 For successful en41 Zhao, H., Seibert, S.

Good communication is crucial for exchanging information accurately, especially in today’s fast-moving world, using various methods including both electronic and interpersonal channels. 50 New entrepreneurs need to cultivate confidence in their ideas and their ability to overcome challenges. Successful entrepreneurs are optimistic and consistently focus on the positive aspects of any situation. They strive to improve in everything they do, taking calculated risks and seeing opportunities in every challenge. Instead of dwelling on the negatives, an entrepreneur concentrates on the potential benefits and solutions. 51 Entrepreneurship is never a one-person endeavor, even for solo entrepreneurs. No matter how skilled he is, the support of a talented and reliable team is essential. Without a capable team, entrepreneurs may fall behind on achieving their milestones. 52 Having the right team can be a decisive factor in the success of a venture. Successful entrepreneurs typically begin any project with a strong team that helps them make a significant impact. 53 Trust and honesty is essential in business. Entrepreneurs with high integrity not only follow ethical practices but are also transparent and honest in all their interactions. This fosters trust and builds longterm relationships, which are crucial for business growth and sustainability. The business environment is constantly evolving, with new challenges arising regularly. New entrepreneur needs to remains flexible and adaptable, adjusting strategies based on feedback and changing circumstances while keeping their ultimate goals in focus. 54 This investigative paper will assess the life of great entrepreneurs around the globe and analyses their grooming, growth, struggling and developing narrative along with their successful story as entrepre48 Acs ZJ, Armington C (2004) Employment growth and entrepreneurial activity in cities.

This analytical article will evaluate entrepreneurship in global perspective on basis of the story of great entrepreneurs along with analysis of literature, history, lesson learn of successful entrepreneurs, their thought, story, life, along with discussion/connection of owner, CEOs, managers, of firm/organization (around the globe), professional, advisers, teachers, researchers, consultant, public and private government official, and many more. There will be discussion on the ideas and lessons from great entrepreneurs’ life and which will be useful for new entrepreneurs success in 21st century. 2.1 Research Gap In 21st century, an entrepreneur is a person who identifies a need or a want and starts a business to fill that void. And he/she provides little insight into the specific quality and attributes that makes his/her thrive as an entrepreneur and that is appropriate for anyone who is doing business in this era. Entrepreneurship is a critically important driver of economic development and has undergone significant changes over time. Traditional entrepreneurship relies on proven methods and heavily depends on established business models and personal savings. According to a Small Business Administration (SBA) study, 75% of traditional small businesses are funded through individual savings, loans, and grants. This approach typically involves physical locations and direct interactions with customers. Whereas modern entrepreneurship is different from traditional entrepreneurship. It is shaped by innovation and agility and uses technology and digital platforms. According to a report by Statista, 62% of startups use digital marketing as their primary way to get new customers. Today crowdfunding and venture capital are also crucial for successful entrepreneurs. 55 At a fundamental level, all entrepreneurs try to overcome adversity to pursue opportunity with limited resources. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) states that about 20% of new businesses fail in their first year, 30% within two years, 45% within five years, and 65% within ten years. 56 The road to success as entrepreneurs is often long and lonely, with brutal hours, massive amounts of stress, and lots of personal/family sacrifice and debt. The benefit to become entrepreneurs is very distinguished and prestigious as it gives us the freedom to become our own boss and the creator of our own future. Again, there exists a clear deficiency in comprehending understanding of modern thinking of entrepreneurship along with relation between technology and economic development with entrepreneurship in modern era. We must know how to develop contemporary entrepreneurs for success in 55 https://eimrglobal.org/traditional-entrepreneurship-vsmodern-entrepreneurship/, accessed on 25 Sep 2025 56 https://www.bls.gov/bdm/us_age_naics_00_table7.txt, accessed on 25 Sep 2025 57 Watson, John B.

So, useful research may conduct to address the relation between technology and economic development with entrepreneurship as a global perspective. This investigative paper will evaluate the life of great entrepreneurs around the globe and analyses their life struggling and grooming narrative along with their successful story as entrepreneurs. 2.2 Research Questions a. What is the concept of entrepreneurship in historical and global perspective? b. What are the benefits and challenges of technology in 21st Century c. What are the story and narrative of (selective) great global entrepreneurs? d. What are the lessons of (selective) great global entrepreneurs for new entrepreneurs? e. How to develop of new entrepreneurs for success in 21st century? 3. Literature Review and Methodology There is a comprehensive understanding of the activities that entrepreneurs undertake and the genuine factors that drive a venture to succeed is not currently available. This evaluation and summary of current scholarship is based on a methodical review of literature encompassing several hundred empirical studies and an examination of the biographies of several hundred prosperous entrepreneurs, connecting their actions and cognition to business outcomes. Theories of behaviorism, for instance, those put forward by Watson (1924) 57 and Skinner (1953) 58 , contend that an individual's traits are molded by their surroundings and processes of learning. The capacity for people to develop entrepreneurial abilities by building confidence and learning from their actions is emphasized in Bandura’s (1977) 59 concept of self-efficacy. The viewpoint that entrepreneurial competencies are acquired through formal education, mentorship, and experiential learning is supported by contemporary research 60 . Furthermore, current analyses emphasize the way expertise within an industry and professional connections boost entrepreneurial achievement, particularly for more mature entrepreneurs, which strengthens the idea that entrepreneurship is developed progressively. 61 Although some innate personality characteristics might provide a benefit, the field of entrepreneurship is mainly formed by acquired knowledge, hands-on experience, and external influences. The conclusion that entrepreneurs are more often made than born is supported by many academic literatures. 62 80. doi:10.1111/j.1745-6916.2006. 00011.x.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 109 The utilization of literature reviews as a formal research methodology holds increased relevance and critical importance within modern fields of study such as entrepreneurship. Conventional approaches to reviewing literature frequently suffer from a lack of rigor and systematic process, being performed in an ad hoc manner without adherence to a defined procedure. 63 These reviews fulfill a vital function as a foundational element for all research endeavors. They are capable of acting as a platform for the advancement of knowledge, establishing frameworks to guide policy and practice, and furnishing proof of an effect; when executed proficiently, they also possess the potential to generate novel concepts and trajectories for a specific discipline. 64 Furthermore, they provide the foundational justification for subsequent research and theoretical development. When confidence exists that an investigation is constructed upon a base of high accuracy, it becomes significantly more feasible to pinpoint genuine gaps in the research rather than perpetually replicating previous studies, to formulate superior and more exact hypotheses and questions, and, as a result, to elevate the collective standard of research quality. 65 Consequently, it is essential to maintain a clear research question from the outset and to guarantee the selection of an appropriate methodological approach to address the specific research problem. This paper of the process involves a careful examination of different studies including literature. The focus is on the methods they used, like research on twins and the study of personality traits. Along with the literature review, a content analysis is also done. This analysis uses a collection of important publications about entrepreneurship. These include works by famous experts like Druker (1985) 66 , Gladwell (2008) 67 , and Sarasvathy (2001) 68 , 69 Interviews and case studies of successful entrepreneurs are also used. These provide reallife examples of how experience and networks are important for success. 70 A wide range of literature on entrepreneurship has been thoroughly reviewed, including both the history of entrepreneurship and contemporary views from academic and practical perspectives. This paper presents the key literature used to support the conclusions. Again, Harvard Business School has made a significant impact on the field of entrepreneurship through historical research and the development of 63 Boyd and Solarino, 2016 B.K. Boyd, A.M.

The institution's emphasis on business history, notably via the Harvard Research Center in Entrepreneurial History, has influenced perceptions of entrepreneurial functioning within extensive economic and social frameworks. In addition, Harvard professors have developed ideas such as the "Harvard School" hypothesis, which examines how internal and external factors interact to facilitate entrepreneurial success. 71 This Harvard Business School center played a pivotal role in promoting research on the historical role of entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurship as a historical phenomenon has been dramatically influenced by historians affiliated with the center, such as Arthur Cole and Joseph A. Schumpeter. 72 The center's research examined how entrepreneurship has evolved over time and how entrepreneurs have impacted economic growth and social transformation in various periods. This historical approach offered significant insights into the enduring patterns and dynamics of entrepreneurship, influencing both scholarly study and pragmatic commercial practices. 73 Harvard has made numerous contributions to entrepreneurship, including the development of theoretical frameworks, historical research, and hands-on educational initiatives. This comprehensive strategy has solidified Harvard's standing as a preeminent university in the field. In 21st century, a new wave of entrepreneurship research was sparked by Schumpeter's theory of economic development and the notion of entrepreneurship that was part of it. However, reactions from twentiethcentury writers have been fairly divergent. At Harvard University, Schumpeter's academic foundation in the United States gave rise to a tradition of studying entrepreneurship through the lens of economic history. Other scholars have focused on the analytics of Schumpeter's theory, namely, whether the entrepreneur is an equilibrating or disequilibrating force. Other writers distinguish themselves along neoclassical and Austrian lines. In this section, we will explore and discuss the various methods, as well as the writers who developed them. Following Schumpeter's examination of economic history, a tradition of historical studies of entrepreneurship emerged at Harvard University's Research Center in Entrepreneurial History, founded by Arthur 67 Gladwell, M.

110 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 H. Cole (1889-1974). 74 Edwin influenced Cole’s interest in entrepreneurship and his views on the subject. F. Gay (1867– 1946), founder of the Economic History Association and a follower of Schumpeter. The entrepreneur, as a destabilizing force of change, holds a significant position in Gay's philosophy of history, which posits that the degree of allowable free competition in society fluctuates according to social necessity. In this system of free competition, the entrepreneur is a selfcentered actor and a disruptive force, as noted by Gay (1923–1924), 75 “there are periods in the rhythm of history when ... that disruptive, innovating energy is socially advantageous and must be given freer opportunity.” Entrepreneurs create history, according to G. L. S. Shackle (1903–1992), who lived across the Atlantic. Shackle concentrated on the psychological process of making decisions in the business environment. 76 Shackle (1955) defined two tasks that must be performed early on in his inquiry into the character and substance of economic businesses. One deals with uncertainty, and the other makes choices. These two jobs are connected because making decisions requires improvisation or innovation, which can only occur in a world full of unknowns and uncertainties. Shackle was at his finest when he explained what business decisions are and how people might act within them. He was a smart Marshallian who criticized orthodox economic theory for not recognizing Marshall's most important finding: the importance of time in the realm of affairs. Shackle claimed that time weaves a historical tapestry, and the strands of that tapestry are the results of people's choices. Consequently, “we assume that we bear responsibility for our actions; that these actions are fundamentally creative, initiatory, and the origin of historical innovation; that each action represents, in a sense, the independent commencement of a new thread in the tapestry woven by time” (Shackle, 1966, p. 73). 77 Shackle perceives his study as an extension of a Keynesian issue, specifically the factors influencing corporate investment. He discovered a fundamental discrepancy within the Keynesian framework. He referred to Keynes's General Theory as "a paradox, for its central concern is with uncertainty, decisions based on conjecture, and situations altogether lacking in objective stability, yet it uses an equilibrium method" (Shackle, 1955, p. 222). 78 In reaction to this anomaly, Shackle jettisons the equilibrium method – a radical stroke which probably accounts for the failure of mainstream economics to take him more seriously. Shackle’s faithful followers are relatively few. The most prominent is Ludwig Lachmann, who also exhibits strong Austrian tendencies. Nobel laureate T. W. 74 Cole, A. H.

(1980), ‘Investment in entrepreneurial ability’. Scandinavian Journal of Economics 82, 437–448, accessed on 10 June 2025 Schultz (1902–1998) 79 has advanced a theory of entrepreneurship that is fully within the neoclassical paradigm. In contemporary economic literature, Schultz observes a persistent failure to recognize the benefits that accrue to those who facilitate economic equilibration, particularly in nonmarket activities. Schultz, a pioneer in the human capital theory, approached entrepreneurship from this perspective. He criticized the conventional concept and treatment of entrepreneurship on four primary grounds: (1) the concept is typically limited to businessmen, (2) it fails to account for the differences in allocative abilities among entrepreneurs, (3) the supply of entrepreneurship is not treated as a scarce resource, and (4) entrepreneurship is disregarded when general equilibrium considerations dominate economic inquiry (Schultz, 1975, p. 832). 80 Schultz made two significant moves. He began by redefining entrepreneurship as "the ability to deal with disequilibria," and he expanded the idea to include both market and nonmarket activities (such as time allocation and family decisions). Second, he presented data showing how education affects people's perceptions and responses to disequilibrium. He maintained that Schumpeter's formulation fell short. "If economic growth is considered 'progress,'" stated Schultz (1975, p. 832), 81 “it is a process beset with various classes of disequilibria.” Schumpeter's entrepreneur "creates developmental disequilibria," but he did not effectively apply this concept to "all manner of other disequilibria," such as laborers reallocating their labor, or students, housewives, and consumers reallocating their resources, primarily time. In the 1930s, several second-generation Austrian economists left Europe before the ominous shadow of Hitler's Third Reich spread across the continent. Friedrich Hayek (1889–1992) 82 went to London. Ludwig von Mises (1881–1972) 83 and Joseph Schumpeter, both students of B¨ Böhm-Bawerk, came to America. Schumpeter soon found a place to work in the United States, while Mises had a hard time. He eventually became a professor at New York University as part of a unique agreement. There, he became the leader of Austrian economics, reaching out to a small but smart group of students and supporters. The concept of a standard supply curve for entrepreneurial talent emerged as a significant point of debate between Kirzner (1979) 84 and Schultz. Schultz 80 Schultz, T. W.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 111 (1980, p. 439) 85 criticized Kirzner for neglecting entrepreneurship as a scarce resource (i.e., failure to treat it in terms of a supply curve). According to Kirzner, entrepreneurship, or attentiveness, is a human quality that can exist or not. 86 Kirzner believes that awareness, like beauty, cannot be substantially enhanced once nature has conferred its particular allotments. Despite their basic disagreement, Kirzner and Schultz's theories address several crucial concerns. 87 Both authors regard the entrepreneur as an individual who identifies the potential for profit in a state of disequilibrium and responds accordingly. Both of them think that the idea is quite important and covers a lot more ground than it has been shown to do in economic writing up to this point. The distinctions between the two theories are predominantly established on methodological rather than analytical criteria. Kirzner and other neo-Austrian economists offer a theoretical alternative to neoclassical economics' general equilibrium paradigm. Their perspective emphasizes change, inaccuracy, and defects in markets and human decision-making, rejecting the comparative-statics, perfect-markets view of economic activity. Their challenge to the prevailing paradigm is not the only one, however, as we have demonstrated that Clark, Schumpeter, and Shackle have all made successful attempts to critique and offer alternative perspectives on the neoclassical framework. The concept of X-efficiency, developed by Harvey Leibenstein (1922-1994) 88 , is another contemporary challenge that has emerged from outside the German group. Leibenstein's paradigm appears to converge with Austrian theory at several crucial points; yet, neo-Austrian theorists have expressed reservations over its analytical efficacy. Neo-Austrians often regard Leibenstein's concept of entrepreneurship as only an intriguing aspect of the economic landscape, rather than a fundamental component of the economic process. Kirzner (1979a, p. 142) 89 has written that Leibenstein’s entrepreneurship “is a feature that indeed seems to come into focus when observed through the X-efficiency lens, but the X-efficiency paradigm can be presented without any special reference to entrepreneurs.” Neo-Austrians, on the other hand, see the entrepreneur as the key to comprehending all economic events. The entrepreneur's thoughts and actions elucidate the occurrences within the disequilibrium situation. Schumpeter's theory of economic growth, which emphasized the role of the entrepreneur, led to several studies at Harvard University and beyond that sought to contextualize the entrepreneur within a historical framework. However, over the majority of the 20th century, ideas regarding the nature 85 Schultz, T. W. (1980), ‘Investment in entrepreneurial ability’.

(1979a), ‘Comment: X-inefficiency, error, and the scope for entrepreneurship’. In Time, Uncertainty and and function of entrepreneurship predominantly concentrated on one of two issues: the dichotomy between risk and uncertainty, or the contrast between equilibration and disequilibrium. Now we are in 21st century, these problems remain largely unsolved. Still, writers in the 20th century tended to broaden the definition of entrepreneurship to the point where practically any economic action that involves uncertainty or changing disequilibria has some entrepreneurial aspect. There are two fundamental explanations offered by economic theory and tradition for why things are produced and distributed in the ways that they are. According to one theory, the pricing mechanism serves as the integrative force and resource allocator in a market economy. According to another, this role is carried out by the entrepreneur. Ronald Coase (1910–1975) was the first economist to question why the entrepreneur, an integrating force, should replace the price system and economic development of nation and globe. In a pioneering article, The Nature of the Firm, Coase (1937) 90 questioned why firms are commonly used as resource allocation mechanisms, when economic theory dictates that the price mechanism is an efficient allocator in competitive markets. If the competitive price system is an efficient allocator of resources, why do we have firms? And given that firms exist, does their presence imply market failure or the absence of competition? On the other hand, Arrow (1974) 91 and Williamson (1975), 92 Some people have said that the existence of economic organizations shows that the market isn't working. Coase utilized the Marshallian theory of substitution at the margin to examine the internal dynamics of organizations in addressing these inquiries. He said that businesses exist because the price system makes things more expensive, but administrative procedures can make them less costly or even eliminate them. There are many other types of costs, but to Coase, the most important one was the cost of determining the right prices in a market system. 93 The majority of the other expenditures he discovered are contract and transaction costs for various exchanges. According to Coase, production can be arranged via the pricing mechanism, an impersonal method of resource allocation, or a company's administrative channels under the direction of one or more people we'll refer to as entrepreneurs. Malmgren's (1961) careful exposition of the costs associated with allocating resources through the price system improved Coase's analysis. Uncertain input pricing and market flaws are the main causes of these expenses. Malmgren (1961, p. 399) 94 concluded that “the market operates Disequilibrium, Rizzo, M. (ed.). Lexington, MA: D. C. Heath, accessed on 10 June 2025 90 Coase, R. H. (1937), ‘The nature of the firm’. Economica N.S. 4, 386 405, accessed on 10 June 2025 91 Arrow, K. J. (1974), The Limits of Organization. New York: W.

112 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 between firms, but the entrepreneur is the planning and coordinating agent within the bounds of any one firm.” Unlike Coase, he emphasized uncertainty, but confined it to input prices and quantities. Both Coase and Malgrem considered the final end of the production process as fixed, so the entrepreneur’s judgment in either case does not extend to the choice of which product to produce. According to Knight, the rise of the entrepreneur class brings about major changes in the basic form of business organization of a nation. When things are unpredictable, a firm cannot simply leave the organization to chance or rely on a simple formula. Business owners must make their own choices. Companies must recognize that individuals differ in terms of intelligence, judgment, and willingness to take risks. To make informed decisions, a successful firm needs to establish an effective organizational structure. Knight (1921, pp. 269–270) states that it achieves this by encouraging the brave and confident to confront the danger that the unsure and scared wish to avoid. In short, entrepreneurs "insure" the latter group by promising them a certain amount of money in exchange for a percentage of the business's profits. The Knightian firm exists because the real world doesn't meet all of the conditions for competitive equilibrium that economic theory says it should. Knight believed that the price system is good at dividing up resources between different uses, but it doesn't set the pattern of those uses. Entrepreneurs do that. So, the heart of entrepreneurship is making decisions based on not knowing what will happen. “Any degree of effective exercise of judgment, or making decisions,” Knight (1921, p. 271) 95 wrote, “is in a free society coupled with a corresponding degree of uncertainty-bearing, of taking the responsibility for those decisions.” The entrepreneur's collateral promises of set compensation to resource suppliers are an expression of this obligation. Knight shared Schumpeter's interest in elucidating the nature of economic advancement in a market system, which is primarily composed of businesses and entrepreneurs. He used the term "firm" to refer to a fundamental type of business structure where the entrepreneur assumes responsibility, control, and direction. According to Knight (1921, p. 353), contracting alone does not fully represent the role of the entrepreneur 96 because “In the world as it is the interests affected by contracts are never all represented in the agreements.” Knight thinks that entrepreneurs are more than just contractors. They are experts at dealing with uncertainty, and while the contract is one way to lessen it, some ambiguity can never be fully removed. Knight (1921, p. 283) posits that the number of enterprises is contingent, among other factors, on the availability of entrepreneurial abilities. Knight's thesis provided a fair analysis of the roles that risk-taking and risk-management play. Because it did not restrict the firm's ability to offer interim guarantees to its owners, 95 Knight, F. H. (1921), Risk, Uncertainty and Profit. New York: Houghton Mifflin, accessed on 10 June 2025 96 Ibid 97 Ibid 98 Stauss, J. H. (1944), ‘The entrepreneur: The firm’. Journal of Political Economy 52, 112–127, accessed on 10 June 2025 it established a broad class of entrepreneurs. In fact, finding the role of ultimate control in a Knightian company may require a significant climb up the management structure. Knight stated that selecting the individuals who will make the necessary decisions to run the company is the key responsibility of management. A hierarchy of functionaries serves as the fundamental framework for the decision-making organization, with individuals at each higher level appointing the functionaries below them. Therefore, each functionary transfers economic responsibility to a higher level until it ultimately falls on the controlling functionaries (i.e., the guarantors of the contractual remuneration of resource suppliers) by leaving the repercussions of their actions to their selectors. For Knight (1921), 97 only this last decision is crucial; all subordinate decisions are routine, and consequently, non-entrepreneurial. Some researchers viewed that companies that operate well tend to develop, and bigger companies tend to have strict standards on how people should act. The notion of the corporation as the entrepreneur is likely to face opposition based on methodological individualism. Stauss (1944, p. 126) 98 rejected the notion that the firm is a mere aggregation of decision makers having a collective will be expressed through a system of working rules. Instead, he suggested treating the company as an accounting entity for the sake of general economic research and as a specific, tangible organization when addressing particular difficulties. However, he did not clarify how to make this dual concept of the company operative in economic theory, and it is nearly impossible to detect any indication of Stauss's influence on other authors after more than 40 years. Therefore, in the first half of the 20th century, there was a significant debate over the distinction between the entrepreneur and the firm, as well as whether they could be interchangeable. These issues remain a topic of debate among modern economists. Since the idea of personality different from humans is resisted in most places, the sentiment appears to be maintaining a distinction—albeit an imprecise one— rather than combining the two into one. The relationship—whether symbiotic or not—between the entrepreneur and the type of business organization in which he operates has been brought to light by the controversy surrounding this topic. Drucker's earliest and favorite mentor was his father's acquaintance, the Austrian economist Joseph Schumpeter, who instilled in Drucker the value of creativity and entrepreneurship. 99 Peter Drucker fought for the rights and well-being of all people throughout his long and successful career. Drucker believed that everyone should be treated with respect, have a sense of dignity, a significant role in society, and some freedom. Drucker also advised managers that while caring for employees is vital, productivity and success are what ultimately drive businesses forward (Murphy 2023). 100 99 Beatty, Jack (1998).

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 113 Drucker states that successful entrepreneurs are committed to making innovation work and that innovation is the very foundation of entrepreneurship. He thought that innovation isn't so much about being smart as it is about finding and taking advantage of opportunities to be innovative (Drucker 2013). 101 To highlight Drucker's view that successful organizations are creative and productive and contribute immensely to economic development. Drucker narrates entrepreneurship as "any business that engages in innovation," not simply small or new enterprises. Innovation is the attempt to make meaningful, targeted changes to a business's economic or social potential. In other terms, innovation is change that leads to greater results. One may argue that Drucker sees innovation and entrepreneurship as synonymous. In his essay titled The Discipline of Innovation (Drucker 2013), 102 Drucker states that most successful innovations result from a conscious, purposeful search for innovation opportunities. Within a business or industry, Drucker identifies seven areas of potential. These include: unexpected events, inconsistencies, procedure requirements, Market and industry shifts, demographic shifts, perception shifts, and new information. The development of the first modern accounting computer by IBM in the early 1930s is an example of an unexpected event. Although banks were not purchasing new equipment at the time, it was developed with them in mind. Luckily, one of the devices was purchased by the New York Public Library. As a result, additional libraries purchased over 100 machines. Rather than losing money, IBM's success increased. Drucker provides further examples of unforeseen events that led to profitable inventions. Because mistakes or problems can lead to valuable inventions, Drucker advises firms to concentrate as much on arising problems as on possible opportunities in their monthly and quarterly reports. Many renowned researchers found that the skill to create new things, take chances, and lead well is built through focused effort and constant learning. This supports the idea that entrepreneurs are made, not born. 103 Some people say today's great entrepreneurs, like Elon Musk, had an easy start. Others say genes are not important. Musk himself said, 'I believe the simple answer to the age-old question is that entrepreneurs are made, not born.' To be successful, entrepreneurs need education (which does not have to be formal) and experience. These are not qualities a person is born with. We all know stories about big companies that failed when the children of the founder took over. Other people did not get a business from their family and were not born rich. They started with nothing and learned how to build a successful business. 104 Skills for entrepreneurship are viewed as very important for a business to grow and 101 Drucker, Peter (2013).

In fact, government groups and others use the idea of entrepreneurial skills in their work to help the economy and business. However, the main idea of these skills, how to measure them, and how they connect to business performance needs more careful research and use in the real world. 105 This paper presents a complete learning material for all entrepreneurs. It is for young or old; small or big; new or experienced; public or private; just starting or finishing. It is for any entrepreneurship or venture to help them succeed and handle challenges, struggles, risk, and failure. To answer the research questions well, this study uses a mixedmethod design. It combines both qualitative and quantitative methods. It also uses serious and wide reading of previous literature and studies. This gives a full understanding of entrepreneurship and entrepreneur quality around the world. 106 This paper also talks about important insights with through reviewing literature and focused group discussions. It also includes a critical study and their views of all-time great entrepreneurs from around the globe. The study looks at their life, struggle, education, thoughts, views, ideas, and advice. This can show the path for modern entrepreneurial activities to ensure lasting economic growth and development. To effectively address the research questions, this study adopts a mixed-method research design, integrating both qualitative and quantitative approaches along with serious and extensive literature and previous studies to provide a multi-dimensional understanding of entrepreneurship and its relation with technology and economic development in a global context. It is an analytical article and it will evaluate the relation of entrepreneurship with economic growth and technology as a global viewpoint. This paper will also discuss about the development of entrepreneurs in technological enhancement in the modern era. 3.1 Secondary Data Collection and Analysis of Historical Concept Comprehensive desk research was conducted to collect secondary data from authoritative sources such as literature, books, journals, recent studies, successful entrepreneurs’ experiences of local and global entrepreneurs along with own experience and perspective as 105 https://www.emerald.com/ijebr/article-abstract/16/2/92/119106/Entrepreneurial-competencies-a-literature-review?redirectedFrom=fulltext, accessed on 12 Aug 2025 106 Atems, B. and Shand, G., 2018. ‘An empirical analysis of the relationship between entrepreneurship and income inequality’, Small Business Economics, 51: 905– 922 https://doi.org/10.1007/s11187-017-9984-1, accessed on 29 Sep 2025

Banks use AI to organize operations, for book-keeping, investing in stocks, and managing properties. AI can react to changes when business is not taking place. 208 Today, AI is used to combat fraud and financial crimes by monitoring behavioral patterns for any abnormal changes or anomalies. 209 The use of AI in applications such as online trading and decision making has changed major economic theories. 210 For example, AI-based buying and selling platforms estimate individualized demand and supply curves and thus enable individualized pricing. AI machines reduce information asymmetry in the market and make markets more efficient. 211 Many banks, funds, and proprietary trading firms now have entire portfolios that are AImanaged. Automated trading systems are typically used by large institutional investors but include smaller firms trading with their own AI systems. 212 There is a large array of applications where AI is serving common people in their day-to-day lives. 204 Richtel Matt, (21 November 2010), "Growing Up Digital, Wired for Distraction", The New York Times, accessed on 21 Jul 2023 205 Chen Hsing Chung, et al., (January 2022), "Week-Wise Student Performance Early Prediction in Virtual Learning Environment Using a Deep Explainable Artificial Intelligence", Applied Sciences. 12 (4): 1885, accessed on 21 Jul 2023 206 Yuskovych Zhukovska, et al., (23 Mar 2022), "Application of Artificial Intelligence in Education.Problems and Opportunities for Sustainable Development", BRAIN: Broad Research in Artificial Intelligence and Neuroscience. 13 (1Sup1): 339–356, accessed on 23 Jul 2023 207 Americanbanker, (5 Jan 2017), Beyond Robo-Advisers: How AI Could Rewire Wealth Management. 5 January 2017, accessed on 23 Jul 2023 208 O'Neill Eleanor, (31 July 2016), "Accounting, automation and AI", icas.com, Archived from the original on 18 November 2016, accessed on 23 Jul 2023 209 Chapman Lizette, (7 January 2019), "Palantir once mocked the idea of salespeople.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 123 Figure 4: Benefit of AI in automobiles 213 and in healthcare 214 The explosion of technology in the modern era has coincided with an equally seismic shift in how we think and talk about it. AI is so advanced technology that can replicate the human brain or intelligence. It allows computer programs to learn from experience through iterative processing and algorithmic training. Every day, AI has become more practical and innovative in almost all aspects of life. AI has become a crucial issue in the modern era, as it might affect the job market and general employment. Most individuals wish to claim that the widespread usage of AI would result in employment losses for people. 215 However, People are gradually realizing that AI can improve the creative, lucrative, constructive, adaptable, and accessible nature of professions. AI could lead to a more innovative, diversified, and skilled economy. 216 We must need to change the education system, including the curriculum, teaching methods, and many things that need to be done for schooling. Our mass or general education system needs to be aligned with modern and advanced technology, which will change the whole school system and must be purposeful and sustainable for the long term. It is an analytical study in which the researcher has tried to evaluate the diversified use of AI and robots and the consequences for the human future, emphasizing the global education system. Robotics, AI, and machine learning have advanced significantly in recent years. Automation and extensive use of AI can help organizations, companies, or industries do better in production or service by reducing errors, improving quality and speed, accuracy and integrity, and, in most cases, achieving results that are impossible for humans. 217 Again, advances in AI and related automation technologies have led to growing fears about job losses and increasing inequality in society. This concern is widespread in high-income countries. Developing countries and emerging market economies should be even more concerned than highincome countries, as their comparative advantage in the world economy relies on abundant labour and natural resources. 218 Additionally, declining labour and natural resource returns, as well as the winner-take-all dynamics brought on by new information technologies, may lead to a further loss of control in the developing and labour-intensive world. This has the potential to slow the rapid progress made over the last fifty years. It may also jeopardize progress toward reducing poverty and inequality in societies around the world. 213 https://www.telematicswire.net/artificial-intelligence-and-its-use-cases-in-automotive-industry/, accessed on 28 June 2023 214 https://www.tristatetechnology.com/blog/artificial-intelligence-in-healthcare-top-benefits-risks-and-challenges, accessed on 28 June 2023 215 Hossain K A, (2023), Analysis of Present and Future Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Line of 4th industrial Revolution (4IR), Scientific Research Journal 11 (8), ISSN: 2201-2796, Aug 2023, accessed on 14 Aug 2023 216 Hossain, K.

124 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 Figure 5: AI is game changer in manufacturing industry 219 and AI will boost agriculture sector 220 Future dangers from AI may be very significant. AI, IoT, ML, and automation will reduce the need for human workers and the size of the global economy. AI in education is not about humanoid robots as a teacher to replace human teachers. However, it is about using computer intelligence to help teachers and students and improving and effective the education system. In the future, the education system will have many AI tools that will shape the educational experience. Again, who knows, maybe even robot-human emotional relations will be possible in the future. There were already several movies playing with that idea. However, there is a high degree of uncertainty regarding the conceivable technological development scenarios and their effects. 221 So, substantial potential weaknesses and risks cannot be ignored. Economic analysis based on models suited to this new era has the potential to aid in the development of policies at both the global and national levels that can mitigate these negative effects. The big threat of AI is ‘Singularity’ in which AI machines take over and fundamentally alter human existence by making us dependent on them or eliminating us. This is another major threat to humanity on a global scale. Today many people believe that the end of humanity is possible if super-intelligent robots gain access to nuclear weapons or develop biological or chemical agents.

So, there should be appropriate procedures, rules and regulations for using advanced AI and robots. And such procedures and regulations should include ethical, privacy, and security concerns. Therefore, global coordination should guide AI development in a positive, gentle path. 222 On the other hand, AI technology has the potential to give benefits to different income choices and bring significant gains to both developed and developing countries. 223 AI also has the potential to create new and innovative job opportunities, leading to a more productive and efficient economy. 224 Any technology usually eliminates employment that creates. It is the reality that, with the advancement of AI, the world will become more complex and self-centred in the future, as well as there will not be enough jobs for all, or it will not ensure employment for everyone. So, the new generation needs to be educated with advanced technology and valuable skills. Therefore, the current education system must be transformed with a pragmatic solution. 225
Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 125 Figure 6: Home care robot 226 and AI will change the finance sector 227 An algorithm is ‘a step-by-step procedure for solving a problem or accomplishing some end.’ In the field of AI, algorithms are automated instructions that tell a computer what to do. The instructions are mathematically driven and can be as simple as ‘if X, then Y’ actions or encompass complex mathematical layers of instructions to execute a task or find an answer to a problem. 228 The algorithm manipulates data in a variety of ways, such as sorting, inserting, replacing, or searching for a data attribute. It solves problems when it carries out the instructions. ML can be supervised, unsupervised, semi-supervised, or reinforcement learning depending on the kind of data being input into the program and the type of outputs that can be expected. 229 When we hear someone talk about a machine that learns, the machine is executing a structured set of mathematical procedures. The machine learns how to correct itself based on data used to train the application or by iterating on data used by the application once deployed. How the machine learns to correct itself depends on the mathematical models selected for the task. 230 Data scientists and ML programmers are the team members who select and adjust the mathematical models used in applications. 231 In deep learning, a set of mathematical instructions such as an algorithm, which is called a node, works like a neuron to fire the algorithm, process it as instructed, and pass its information to another node in the computer. That algorithm is then used as input by another node in the neural network. Data move through the nodes in a direction specified by the algorithm. A deep learning model can contain billions of nodes embedded in many layers. Future robotics and automation will be going to serve as assistants, workmates, teachers, surgeons, drivers, operators, and explorers.

Today, in many ways, robots are already an integral part of daily life. They might even assist us in expanding our horizons on our planet and beyond, helping billions of people live better lives. 232 Today, robots become human friend and have been among us for quite some time and are used to separate humans from dull, automated, dangerous or dirty jobs or tasks in warehouses and factories at the work place. When we are talking about replacing humans with robots, then safety is perhaps one of the most important factors. Robots injuring or even worse, killing their human colleagues, is become even bigger issue as use of advanced AI increases or automation rises and many more factories are adapting automation. Forbes published the interesting story about the incident where a semi-autonomous driving Tesla car 233 collided with a tractor-trailer in Florida, and subsequently killing its driver in 2016. 234 Again in 2015, when an industrial robot killed a German factory employee and in 2017 another killed a Michigan worker. However, in the Future of Jobs Report, more than 80% of business executives said that, they are accelerating plans to digitize work processes and deploy new technologies. 235 And, 50% of employers are expecting to increase speed the automation of some roles in their companies. So, in the age of AI, the McKinsey Global Institute declared that, workforce transitions in a time of automation, estimates that as many as 375 million workers or roughly 14% of the global labor force may need to re-skill in digitization,
126 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 automation and AI by 2030, 236 in their report, ‘Jobs lost, jobs gained.’ 237 An up-skilling worker seems to be the most popular course in all advanced company. For example, Amazon’s ‘Up-skilling 2025’ 238 initiative, has announced that it plans to spend US$ 700 million to retrain a third of its workforce with skills for automation or in AI training. Again, 52% of industrial workers interviewed in the Digital Factories 2020 and ‘Shaping the future of manufacturing’ 239 report by PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) 240 believed their company lacks a true digital culture. They decided, getting workers involved, and trained, with technologies at the earliest stages can double-up with effective risk assessment and understanding potential safety hazards. Actually, safety and training can go hand-in-hand by ensuring each worker is trained to follow the safety protocol and avoid risks of on-site accidents and injuries; whatever their skill level. Training of the safe use of robots also goes beyond the technologies’ installation. As the national safety guidelines for the manufacturing industry are always changing and periodic training must be delivered to workers to ensure they can operate the machinery safely. The safety of robots must also be guaranteed over the long-term for the betterment of human safety. One way to achieve this is being explored by MIT 241 in collaboration with the automobile manufacturer BMW 242 . By using simulations to develop algorithms that help robots predict and respond to humans in close proximity, like, on a car production line. In addition, effective maintenance is absolutely crucial to the safe operation of robots. 243 So, the future of AI and robotics will provide several fascinating opportunities with high pay and promising career advancement.

Currently social robots are designed to interact in ways that make them human by responding to human interactions. 244 Sophia is an example of a social robot conceived as a companion for older adults that demonstrates the potential of technologic advancements to improve how robots function. 245 In 2018, Sophia was redesigned with mobility capabilities and is now the first robot to be given citizenship in a country (Saudi Arabia). 246 Miko is kind of robot that understand human emotion.

It allows the documented benefits of animal therapy to be administered to patients in environments such as hospitals and extended care facilities where live animals present treatment or logistical difficulties. 248 Professor Einstein is a robot that teaches science and general information. 249 ROBEAR is a nursing care robot. 250 Vortex is a programmable robot that teaches kids STEM. 251 Pillo is an AI-powered health companion. 252 Buddy is a home robot. 253 Figure 7: Example of few modern robots (Healthcare robot, Emotional robot) 254 , 255 As robots learn to perform nursing functions, such as ambulation support, vital signs measurement, medication administration, and infectious disease protocols, the role of nurses in care delivery will change. 256 Research suggests that between 8% and 16% of nursing time is spent on non-nursing activities and tasks that should be delegated to others. 257 Again from an example of a robot collaboration is found at Duke University Pratt School of Engineering and School of Nursing. Interdisciplinary teams are working on developing the Tele-Robotic Intelligent Nursing Assistant (TRINA), a remote-controlled robot, to address healthcare workers who are at “high risk for infection due to routine interaction with patients, handling of contaminated materials, and challenges associated with safely removing protective gear.” 258 TRINA is tested in the nursing simulation lab and currently performs about 60% of predefined nursing tasks; however, it's 20 times slower than a nurse. The nurse will become the information integrator, health coach, and deliverer of human caring, supported by AI technologies, not replaced by them.

MGI models predict that by 2030, nearly 75 million to 375 million workers worldwide will need to switch occupations due to AI technologies. However, the report also emphasizes that new roles and jobs will be created. American Economic Association researchers agree with the MGI predictions, finding that some tasks will be favorable for automation, but few jobs can be fully automated. They also predict that workers will train into new roles. 260 In 2011, computer scientist Andrew Ng proved that computers can learn what an object is without being told what it represents. His research used 10 million online videos of cats; over time, the computer learned what a cat was. This breakthrough technology is used today in speech recognition systems. Recent research predicts that global AI healthcare spending will equal US$ 36.1 billion by 2025. 261 China announced in 2017 its goal to become a global leader in AI by 2030.

So, these predictions are harder to make, but few gloomy experts worry that once AI is everywhere, these new jobs and the ones that were already there may start to go away. So, they wonder what will happen to those people in the long run. As we've seen in the past, there were ways to move from farming to making things to providing services. Now, that isn't true. What will happen to most people who work if all jobs are taken over by robots? As we've seen, technology makes more sense from a business point of view. For example, selfdriving cars and AI concierges like Siri and Cortana could take away up to 8 million jobs in the US alone as these technologies get better. What about the rest of the world? When all these jobs start to go away, we'll have to ask ourselves, ‘What makes us useful?’ 265 How do we define productivity? We must face the ever-evolving reality and rethink the foundations upon which our civilization is built. What is it that we do that contributes to society and makes us valuable as individuals? Since the technology won't wait for us, we need to have this discussion ASAP. It's time for us to develop a moonshot mindset. 266 To build inclusive, decentralized intelligent digital networks 'imbued with empathy' 267 that help humans aggressively and ensure that technology meets social and ethical responsibilities. 268 We need some effective and new level of regulatory and certification process to ensure the best use of AI for entire human race. 269 Figure 9: In future robot will replace teacher 270 and Modern classroom 271 262 Federal Register.

He stated, "Innovation is the defining characteristic that differentiates a leader from a follower." Avoid wasting your time by living the existence of another individual, as time is a finite resource. Do not allow the noise of others' opinions to block out your own inner voice.

"Outstanding leaders go out of their way to boost the self-esteem of their personnel," is an opinion of one of the greatest natural entrepreneurs of all time. It is remarkable what individuals can achieve when they have confidence in themselves. Sam Walton selected a market that was not in demand and afterwards established a distribution system that had not been explored in the retail industry. Walton could reduce shipping costs and expedite the delivery of products to his busy Walmart stores by constructing warehouses between multiple locations. A state-of-the-art inventory control system enabled Walton to significantly reduce his cost margins in comparison to his direct competitors. Walton transferred the savings to the consumer, rather than recognizing them as profits. Walton attracted an increasing volume of business to the location where he established his business by consistently offering low prices. Ultimately, Walton relocated Walmart to the city in order to compete with the larger corporations on margins. Since then, the beast of Bentonville has never turned back. 358 He also employed a straightforward formula: purchase products in bulk at reduced prices and resell them at a reasonable price. For instance, if a consumer enters a Walmart store with the intention of purchasing $5 products, but discovers a reasonable price in the store, they end up purchasing $10 products, resulting in a $5 profit for Walmart. Walton attracted an increasing volume of business to each location where he established a business by consistently offering low prices.

Central to this development is Chung Ju-young, a rural youth who overcame poverty and hardship to establish one of the largest companies globally. 421 By the late 1950s, Hyundai emerged as a pioneer in Korea's reconstruction, and its achievements contributed significantly to the nation's rapid economic advancement. Chung Juyung was born into an impoverished family in Tongchon County, Korea, which was then part of the Empire of Japan, today known as Kangwon Province. He originally aimed to become a schoolteacher; however, his family did not possess the financial resources to facilitate his study. 422 When not engaged in work on the family farm, Chung attended his grandfather's Confucian school. His business aptitude became evident during travels to town, where he sold wood to financially assist his family. In 1946, following Korea's independence from Japanese rule, Chung established Hyundai and Hyundai Civil Industries, foreseeing the post-war reconstruction and industrialization. 423 Chung secured government contracts and was charged with constructing a significant portion of South Korea's transportation infrastructure, including the Soyang Dam in 1967, the 419 https://www.samsungfoundation.org/html/eng/foundation/culture_foundation.asp, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 420 https://www.thedailystar.net/toggle/news/the-man-whobuilt-samsung-tale-strategy-controversy-success-1985029, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 421 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/chung-ju-young-storyfrom-farmboy-founder-dollar-empire-wilson-luna-vktdc, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 422 https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/lifestyle/peopleevents/20110907/5-chung-ju-yung-embodiment-of-koreaseconomic-miracle, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 423 Steers, Richard M.

He had a pivotal role in establishing Hyundai Heavy Industries, the largest shipbuilding company globally, and Hyundai Motor Group, a prominent automobile manufacturer. Chung Ju-yung's son guided Samsung's evolution into a global technology powerhouse, focusing on semiconductors, cellphones, and electronics. 425 Chung Ju-yung's journey was defined by conquering several challenges, transitioning from modest origins to becoming a multinational corporation. He regarded failures as chances for learning and advocated for an unwavering quest for solutions in the face of challenges. He was unafraid of questioning conventional norms and prevailing common sense when he saw it beneficial to advancement. 426 Hyundai's innovative approach to a variety of industries was significantly influenced by this willingness to consider outside the box. Under the leadership of Chung Ju-yung, Hyundai expanded its operations to include infrastructure initiatives, automobiles, and shipbuilding. Hyundai, a company that was pivotal in the economic expansion of South Korea following the conflict, was established by him. Chung Ju-yung was of belief that the combination of a strong will to succeed and one's potential could generate an powerful force for growth and innovation. He urged individuals to surpass their perceived limitations and realize their maximum potential. 427 Chung Juyung highlighted that success is mostly a consequence of determination, with confidence playing a vital role. He supposed that tackling every task with a concentrated and persistent mindset was crucial. He emphasized the significance of putting in one's all, irrespective of the task's magnitude. 428 He was acknowledged for his trust in putting utmost effort and pursuing the optimal outcome, rather than accepting to mediocrity. 429 He perceived entrepreneurship as a combination of firm determination, diligent effort, and a readiness to challenge established norms. He held a conviction in the efficacy of personal endeavor and the capacity for collective success through inventive thought and a strong work ethic. 425 Kirk, Donald, 1938- (2015).

Within same year, Ren was inducted into the army and enlisted the 22nd separation from the Infrastructure Engineering Corps of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). 476 He worked as a technician and engineer, working on automation processes in the chemical industry. During most of his military career, Ren was rejected entry to the Communist Party owing to his parents' social background and his father's work for the Nationalist government. He was capable to join the Party soon prior his retirement. Ren was displaced to a scientific research base. Ren Zhengfei, has establish Shenzhen Huawei Technology Co., Ltd. in 1987. At the starting of founding the company, friends suggested him to generate money with high profits, but Ren believed that was not a enduring solution. However, develop the entrepreneurship gradually and firmly. He has served president of Huawei since 1988. 477 Ren has required to integrate CCP philosophy into Huawei's management and corporate culture. He said that if a dispute between the interests of Huawei and those of the CCP's rose, he would "choose the CCP whose interest is to assist the people and all human beings" and that he could not deceive the principle of helping all human beings. 478 Ren Zhengfei intentions to expand global market share in four phases: the first is to penetrate the neighboring Hong Kong market; the second is to increase market share in Russia and South America; the third is intended to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa; and the fourth is to designed to developed countries. According to access the global market, Ren proposed the idea of "Huawei globalization": the globalization of management, R and D, talent, sales, and corporate culture. Since 1996, Ren has engaged IBM and various American and British firms to restructure Huawei's research and development, supply chain, financial, and market systems, as well as to consolidate its product development system, supply chain, human resource management, financial management, and quality control. In 2017 the company had an annual revenue of US$92.5 billion. 479 Huawei operates independently of Ren, as its shares are owned by employees; yet, the ownership structure remains ambiguous. 480 Ren Zhengfei perceives entrepreneurship as a dynamic and developing process that necessitates a clear sense of purpose, a dedication to innovation, and an openness to adapt and learn from both successes and setbacks. Ren Zhengfei asserts that a specific aim is essential for entrepreneurial success. The European Business 476 Marquis, Christopher; Qiao, Kunyuan (2022).

He urges staff to adopt this aim and strive tirelessly to attain it. He perceives entrepreneurship as a process of perpetual learning, adaptability, and steadfast dedication to consumer value. He stresses the significance of a purpose-oriented strategy, technical advancement, and a synergistic interaction between the government and private sector. 481 He also recognizes that the business environment is ever changing and emphasizes the necessity for entrepreneurs to be lifelong learners. He explained the difficulties he encountered in the initial stages, lacking comprehension of things such as supermarkets and bathrooms in their modern context. This stresses the significance of adjusting to new technologies and business models. He highlights the necessity of deriving lessons from errors and setbacks, perceiving them as chances for development. He considers technical innovation to be a fundamental catalyst for success in the 21st century. He has continuously emphasized the significance of research and development, especially in fundamental sciences and mathematics. He asserts that strong foundations in these domains is essential for sustained competitiveness and success. Ren promotes a synergistic partnership between the government and private sector entities. 482 He believes that a legalized and market-oriented environment, where the government administers according to law, is essential for fostering economic vitality.

Ren has advocated for company investment in education and development. He recognizes the necessity of overcoming obstacles and adjusting to global changes like U.S. chip restrictions. Liu Chuanzhi He established Lenovo and is regarded as one of the prominent entrepreneurs in Chinese history. He was born on 29 April 1944 into a modest Chinese household. Lenovo is the preeminent global vendor of personal computers by unit sales. Liu was concerned about his financial situation; in 1984, he had an expanding family but a salary of merely 100 RMB per month. By the early 1980s, Liu had attained considerable success as a computer scientist yet remained dissatisfied with his career. Although his contributions to magnetic data storage were significant, they did not possess immediate practical applicability.

We established the first electron-tube computer and the first transistor-based computer. However, we created only one of each item. Subsequently, we proceeded to create something distinct. The work was merely archived”. 484 Liu established Lenovo (formerly named Legend) in 1984 alongside a group of ten engineers in Beijing, utilizing 200,000 yuan and occupying an office of 20 square yards in area. Liu conceived the idea to establish Lenovo due to insufficient financing at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Liu's superior arranged a loan of 200,000 yuan from the academy to him and the other co-founders. The founders of Lenovo, all scientists and engineers, encountered challenges due to their unfamiliarity with market-driven business processes, traditional Chinese ambivalence towards trade, and anti-capitalist communist ideology. Lenovo attempted, but did not succeed, in marketing a digital watch. Liu identifies Hewlett-Packard as a significant source of inspiration for Lenovo. Lenovo's subsequent acquisition of IBM's personal computing division positioned him as the first Chinese CEO to oversee the takeover of a significant American company. 485 Liu Chuanzhi, the 75-year-old owner of Lenovo Group, has retired as chairman of Legend Holdings, the parent company of the world's greatest personal computer manufacturer in 2019. 486 He respects personalities like Bill Gates for their philanthropic initiatives, proposing that entrepreneurs should endeavor to balance business success with social contributions. He highlights the significance of effective risk management, especially in acquisitions, taking into account brand awareness, employee retention, and cultural integration. He promotes establishing a solid basis for the organization, emphasizing a comprehensive understanding of the sector, adaptability to market fluctuations, and a constructive corporate culture. He contends that successful entrepreneurs need to be conscious of their societal impact and proactively engage in its enhancement. He perceives entrepreneurship as a journey necessitating not only business expertise but also a profound sense of social responsibility and a dedication to establishing a healthy, sustainable enterprise. 487 He stresses the significance of foresight, an efficient team, and a sound management foundation, while also emphasizing the necessity for honesty and integrity in business transactions.

Liu recognizes that setbacks and failures are unavoidable, encouraging entrepreneurs to maintain persistence and concentration on their objectives. 489 Liu also recognizes the necessity for innovation and adaptation, particularly in the digital age. He stated, entrepreneurship is comprehensive, involving not only the quest of profit but also the establishment of a sustainable and responsible company that contributes to society. 7. Analysis of Lessons Learn from Successful Entrepreneurs and Business Ventures There are ups and downs, wins and losses, on the road to becoming an entrepreneur. It's about beginning from scratch and never giving up on their idea until they become a hero in their own right. Resilience, adaptability, and a desire to learn from both successes and setbacks are all essential components of a successful business. Some important lessons include regarding failure as a chance to learn, working with others to establish great teams, and always seeking fresh information and diverse points of view. Additionally, for long-term success, it's essential to understand the importance of vision, passion, risk tolerance, and customer relationships. Successful business owners see failures as chances to learn, not as reasons to give up. Entrepreneurs are always looking for fresh information and ways to adapt to the changing times in their company. They should be passionate enough about their firm and its objective to keep going and come up with new ideas. They should understand that taking calculated risks is essential for progress and be prepared to adjust their plan when necessary. Starting your own business might be hazardous, but it can also be advantageous. According to the online course Entrepreneurship Essentials, only 50% of new businesses last five years, and only 25% last 15 years. William Sahlman, a professor at Harvard Business School, states in his book "Entrepreneurship Essentials" that "for every Amazon.com or Uber, there are scores of companies few can remember." Sahlman also states, "A company is successful when it finds and takes the right steps along the way." It has learned how to make and keep customers happy. If they're considering starting their own business or are 487 https://www.researchgate.net/publication/5223277_Lenov o_An_Example_of_Globalization_of_Chinese_Enterprises, accessed on 19 Jul 2025 488 https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/lenovogroups-liu-chuanzhi-on-building-a-healthy-company/, accessed on 19 Jul 2025 489 https://www.straitstimes.com/business/entrepreneurshipconsumption-will-propel-chinas-growth-lenovo-founder, accessed on 19 Jul 2025
154 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 just getting started, it's crucial to learn from others' mistakes and identify which choices helped a company stay in business. 490 According to economics, entrepreneurship, including capital, labor, land, and natural resources, can be profitable. An essential component of a country's ability to thrive in a dynamic and increasingly competitive global economy is its entrepreneurial vision, which is characterized by exploration and risk-taking. The launch of a new company is the best illustration of entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurs are frequently referred to as innovators or sources of new ideas since they replace outdated products with innovative ones and introduce them to the market. It can be divided into homebased or small businesses and large corporations. 491 According to economics, an entrepreneur's profits are derived from a mix of labor, capital, land, and natural resources. In summary, anyone may become an entrepreneur if they have the drive and tenacity to launch a new business and manage all the associated risks. The process of improving entrepreneurs' knowledge and abilities through various classroom coaching, programs, and training is known as entrepreneurship development. Strengthening and expanding the number of entrepreneurs is the primary goal of the development process. One of the most critical traits of resilient and flexible entrepreneurs is their capacity to learn from both success and failure. The process of cultivating and enhancing the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary for individuals to start and operate profitable businesses is known as entrepreneurial development. It entails a range of initiatives designed to encourage, educate, and support business owners, ultimately promoting economic growth and social progress. Programs for entrepreneurship development focus on equipping participants with real-world skills, including operations, marketing, financial management, and business planning. 492 Training often covers regulatory requirements, market realities, and access to resources for efficient business management. The growth of entrepreneurship depends on the presence of strong support networks, such as banks, governmental bodies, and private groups, to offer direction and aid. 493 Cultivating an entrepreneurial mindset marked by creativity, risk-taking, resilience, and a proactive approach to problem-solving is another key aspect of entrepreneurship development. This entails providing entrepreneurs with access to capital, facilities, networking opportunities, and mentorship to help them start and grow their businesses. The process of entrepreneurial development is essential for promoting a flourishing business ecosystem, propelling economic growth, and enabling individuals to make meaningful 490 https://online.hbs.edu/blog/post/successful-entrepreneurstories, 491 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74dBvveSQQM, 492 https://aits-tpt.edu.in/wpcontent/uploads/2023/08/Entreprenurship-Developmentmin.pdf, 493 https://www.bajajfinserv.in/entrepreneurshipdevelopment, 494 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfOPUN_0xm8, 495 https://www.investopedia.com/terms/e/entrepreneur.asp#, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 contributions to society. Being an entrepreneur involves more than just launching one or two companies; it also requires having the right mindset and motivation to succeed in the business world. 494 Successful entrepreneurs share a similar mindset and possess certain personal traits that enable them to excel in business. Successful entrepreneurs, such as the ambitious Richard Branson, have an inner drive to succeed and build their businesses. They don't need a Harvard Business degree or technical knowledge in a particular area. Entrepreneurs can continually improve their methods and establish a stronger firm by viewing both success and failure as opportunities to learn. An entrepreneur is typically a person who starts a new firm, taking on most of the risks and reaping most of the benefits. Entrepreneurship is the act of starting a business. 495 "Enterprising individuals" and "entrepreneurial opportunities" are both components of entrepreneurship, according to Shane and Venkataraman. As such, researchers should examine the characteristics of those who spot opportunities when others do not, as well as the opportunities themselves and the relationship between individuals and opportunities. 496 However, Reynolds et al. contend that people are primarily motivated to pursue entrepreneurial endeavors by opportunity or necessity; in other words, people pursue entrepreneurship primarily because they see business opportunities that meet their need for achievement or because they need to survive. 497 An entrepreneur never succeeds by waiting for an opportunity to present itself. They always have a plan and follow through on it. Everybody plans things differently. However, successful people frequently have a strategy. An aspiring entrepreneur aspires to emulate the lifestyles of prosperous businesspeople. 498 A few successful entrepreneurs' lessons learned, as well as their tactics and decision-making abilities, should be covered. During their entrepreneurial journey, successful entrepreneurs discovered the most crucial lesson. Therefore, honesty, resilience, creativity, flexibility, vision, leadership, passion, tolerance, communication, and balance may be essential traits for entrepreneurs. Nonetheless, some novel discoveries are worth considering. * Entrepreneurs frequently balance a lot of obligations. Setting aside time for strategic planning enables a more comprehensive picture of the company and helps avoid being mired in daily responsibilities. Breaking away from the usual makes room for new concepts and creative fixes. Setting aside time for planning ensures that everyone is on the same page and working toward the same goals, which helps to improve business goals and strategies. Generally speaking, we dislike rising early, especially before dawn. However, 496 Shane, S. (2000). "The Promise of Entrepreneurship as a Field of Research". Academy of Management Review. 25 (1): 217–226. doi:10.5465/AMR.2000.2791611, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 497 Reynolds PD, Hay M, Bygrave WD et al.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 155 the majority of prosperous businesspeople have a tendency to rise early. We have more time in the morning to be conscious and to make a daily schedule, take care of our health, or do anything else we need to do when we get up earlier. Remarkably, Tim Cook, the CEO of Apple, gets up around 3:45 a.m. Nevertheless, he goes to bed at 8:30 p.m. and gets about seven hours of sleep 499 and this practice makes him more productive, and gets extra time to put into other projects. This enables entrepreneurs to design strategies with a fresh perspective, which is the first step they must take if they want to succeed. Therefore, setting aside specific time for strategic planning from a new angle is quite beneficial to entrepreneurs. 500 Ultimately, this leads to more successful company strategies by enabling innovative thinking, proactive risk management, and focused decision-making. Instead of responding to crises as they occur, strategic planning enables entrepreneurs to anticipate potential obstacles and develop effective mitigation plans. Strategic planning maximizes impact and efficiency by helping to identify high-priority projects and allocating resources efficiently. Entrepreneurs can capitalize on new opportunities and adapt to shifting market conditions with the aid of strategic planning. * As a new business owner, they have a lot to gain and nothing to lose. Creativity is vital for small firms, and they are granted permission to try their hardest. However, in the startup sector, even failure serves as an additional advantage. They must keep an eye on their rivals but refrain from trying to imitate them. They must identify their incorrect approach and be creative, considerate, committed, and able to examine how others are implementing new ideas. Because consumer trends can shift quickly, market demand is unpredictable, which presents challenges for business owners. When starting a business, entrepreneurs must deal with a variety of risks and difficulties, and they should take precautions against the ones that could most likely impact them. There is no guarantee of success or a monthly income for entrepreneurs, and in the early stages of starting a business, it can be challenging to spend time with friends and family. The majority of entrepreneurs are risk-takers by nature, or at the very least, strategic visionaries with a well-defined strategy for introducing a new product or service to close a market gap. On a personal level, many entrepreneurs take significant risks by quitting secure employment to devote their time, energy, and frequently their own funds to starting a firm. They must keep in mind that not everything can be managed by a solid company plan or appropriate insurance. Threats and risks that businesses, enterprises, and new entrepreneurs may encounter in499 https://www.businessinsider.in/strategy/apple-ceo-timcook-wakes-up-every-day-at-345-a-m-i-tried-doing-it-for-aweek-and-it-made-me-shockingly-productive- /articleshow/70881139.cms, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 500 https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-stay-organized-andmanage-time-effectively-as-an-entrepreneur-1, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 501 https://blog.fresent.com/taking-risks-entrepreneurssuccessful/, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 clude earthquakes, tornadoes, hurricanes, wars, and recessions. A product may have a sizable market in an impoverished nation, but depending on the political situation at any given time, these nations may be unsafe and unstable, or logistics, taxation, or tariffs may make commerce challenging. A company's reputation is crucial, and this is especially true when a new venture is introduced, as clients often have preconceived notions. A new business may never take off if it fails to satisfy customers from the outset. These days, word-of-mouth advertising and company reputation are greatly influenced by social media. A single negative post or tweet from a disappointed customer might result in significant income losses. 501 Additionally, they should be aware that certain business sectors have a history of high failure rates, and entrepreneurs in these industries may struggle to find investors. These industries include consultancy, retail, and food service. According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, 79.1% of small firms founded in March 2021 reached their first anniversary in 2022, 67% reached their second anniversary in 2023, and 59.2% reached their third anniversary in 2024. Therefore, entrepreneurs should anticipate making some costly blunders. However, businesses have a better chance of success if they have the proper strategy, money, and flexibility. 502 By prioritizing strategic thinking, entrepreneurs can cultivate a more sustainable and successful business, even in the face of the challenges of running a startup. * In the beginning, entrepreneurs or founders shouldn't worry too much about loss or risk because you can't succeed without taking risks. Bill Campbell, an American businessman who is the chairman of the board of trustees of Columbia University and the board of Intuit, famously observed, "If companies don't keep coming up with new ideas, they're going to die." 503 Grace Hopper, a computer scientist, mathematician, and Rear Admiral in the US Navy, remarked, "A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are built for." 504 In addition to creating groundbreaking items, successful entrepreneurs also set trends by developing innovative techniques that enhance the functionality of existing products. Therefore, entrepreneurs need to be risktolerant. Risk is often linked to entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur must accept risks while starting a business, but they must also take precautions to reduce those dangers. When starting a new business, many things can go well, but many things can also go wrong. Entrepreneurs who actively manage the risk-reward connection put their businesses in a position to "benefit from the upside," according to Entrepreneurial Essentials. 505 Jack Ma says, “If you’ve never tried, how will you ever know if there’s any chance?” He also adds, 502 https://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/040615/whatrisks-does-entrepreneur-face.asp, accessed on 17 Jul 2025 503 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Campbell_(business_exec utive), accessed on 17 Jul 2025 504 Ann., Camp, Carole (2004).

156 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 “Once in your life, try something, and work hard at something. Try to change. Nothing bad can happen.” 506 Successful entrepreneurs are comfortable with encountering some level of risk to reap the rewards of their efforts; however, their risk tolerance is tightly related to their efforts to mitigate it. * In the business world, anyone may be successful, whether they are an introvert or an extrovert. Introverts and extroverts think about things in different ways, which is why they both bring their strengths to the table as entrepreneurs. Because introverts often prefer to be alone, many people think they wouldn't do well in business. However, numerous successful entrepreneurs have demonstrated that this perception is biased and unfounded. 507 Just because introverts prefer to be alone or with a small group doesn't mean they dislike people. In reality, introverts are typically really adept at figuring out what other people need and reading them. Most of the time, introverts observe others and how they behave. One drawback of this is that they can often see through the mask and experience someone else's anguish more easily. 508 Nonetheless, a collaboration or partnership between various personality types in the workplace can yield the best possible final outcome. These individuals can succeed in the business sector by utilizing their inventiveness and ingenuity. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, co-founders of Apple, are two distinct entrepreneurs. 509 Wozniak is a self-proclaimed introvert. But, through their partnership, they were able to coordinate their skill sets to produce an incredibly successful company. * There are two sides to a coin: success and failure. Regrettably, many successful businesspeople fail in the early stages. Let's now consider Jack Ma, the founder of Alibaba. Alibaba first failed in 2003 because the majority of the business did not align with Jack Ma's vision. Additionally, he was in danger of bankruptcy within 18 months. But in just five years, he learned from his mistakes and emerged as eBay's main competitor. His success story demonstrates that every new business owner should either learn from their failures or, in the event of success, always consider how they can improve to be more productive. An entrepreneur is therefore sufficiently passionate. They are prepared to put in the extra work required to succeed because they are passionate about and deeply invested in their business idea. Instead of being mutually exclusive, success and failure are intertwined and necessary components of the entrepreneurial path. While success validates methods and spurs additional innovation, failure offers valuable lessons and opportunities for growth. The secret to long-term business success is to embrace both, 506 https://www.inc.com/larry-kim/25-billionaire-quotesabout-success-in-business-amp-life.html, accessed on 15 Jul 2025 507 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/introverts-cansuccessful-entrepreneurs-yvonne-a-jones-cps-ra8xe/, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 508 https://medium.com/swlh/you-can-be-an-introvert-asuccessful-entrepreneur-if-you-know-certain-things84e84b6a09c8, 509 https://www.truity.com/blog/5-super-successfulintroverts-and-what-they-did-right, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 learn from errors, and adjust. Failure can draw attention to weaknesses in current strategies and compel business owners to reevaluate their methods. 510 Entrepreneurs can refine their strategy and increase their chances of success in subsequent ventures by analyzing what went wrong. Entrepreneurs can take more measured and wiser risks in the future by learning from their past mistakes. Resilience and adaptability, essential traits for navigating the dynamic corporate environment, can be fostered through failure. 511 Success, on the other hand, gives confidence for upcoming undertakings and demonstrates the effectiveness of existing tactics. A positive feedback loop can be created by success, attracting talent, resources, and opportunities for further development. Entrepreneurs can be motivated to push the boundaries of their expertise and investigate new possibilities by successful initiatives. Many successful businesspeople have experienced significant setbacks before achieving their objectives. 512 * Entrepreneurs ought to possess an unwavering work ethic. There are many highs and lows on the entrepreneurial path. Having a strong work ethic gives you the resilience you need to overcome setbacks and failures. 513 Unless, like Musk, that's what fascinates us, an entrepreneur should put in 100 hours a week at work. To complete tasks on time, however, we simply need to be focused and determined. To put it briefly, it's about establishing clear priorities and putting ideas into action that will advance our business. Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, has an unachievable work ethic. 514 He has been working nonstop for the last 15 years, putting in 100 hours a week. Musk uses the timeblocking method to schedule his day in five-minute increments, which he calls "time blocks." A specific task or activity is allocated to each time block. Musk may utilize the time-blocking strategy, for instance, when he answers overdue emails, eats meals, or sets aside time for business meetings. Musk says, "There are many easier places to work, but no one ever changed the world working 40 hours a week." Entrepreneurs need to have a strong work ethic that won't let them down. It's a basic skill you need to do well in the harsh world of business. To establish a business, you need a strong work ethic, which means being dedicated, resilient, and committed to doing your best. This will help you address the challenges and capitalize on the opportunities that come your way. A strong work ethic provides the drive and determination necessary to navigate challenging times and achieve your company's goals. It is what keeps entrepreneurs going, even when things go wrong. A strong work ethic encourages individuals to strive for continuous learning and improvement. People who 510 https://www.rrstar.com/story/opinion/columns/guest/2016/02 /27/my-view-failure-success-two/32466898007/, 511 https://primeinsights.in/why-failure-is-the-pathway-tosuccess/#, 512 https://aligntoday.com/blog/success-and-failing#, 513 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/importance-strong-workethic-entrepreneurship-every-day-hussain-cz0te/, 514 Wattles, Jackie (December 8, 2020).

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 157 think this way are continually seeking ways to enhance their business and develop their talents. Ultimately, a strong work ethic is one of the most crucial qualities for an entrepreneur to possess. It boosts productivity, fosters a good reputation, and encourages an attitude of continuous learning and improvement. However, it's also crucial to strike a good balance between work and life and to prioritize your well-being over your goals. 515 * An entrepreneur always welcomes learning. Learning, as we all know, is an ongoing process that gets better with time. Learning aids in improving ourselves, which is something we should strive for every day. No one should ever stop learning, according to even Bill Gates. It will be the end of his world if he stops. He added that he wants to keep learning new things. 516 Knowledge and learning are something that never end; they continue with you in every phase of your life –the learning process improves your thoughts and personality. 517 The way every mistake teaches you something is the same way learning improves your vision and mission in life. A startup business is like a game, where you have to be on top by being aware of your industry’s latest happenings and trends. At the same time, you must constantly add new skills to your arsenal and use them to better your startup. His conventional wisdom for entrepreneurs to say "no" to opportunities can be counterproductive in the early stages. Embracing "yes" can lead to discovering your strengths, finding valuable collaborators, and identifying your business niche, ultimately earning you the privilege to say "no" later. 518 Because it signifies that their request has been heard and will eventually be approved, people appreciate hearing "yes." However, for the same reason, some people are reluctant to give an affirmative response right away. By answering "yes," you are committing to keeping your end of the bargain. "Yes" can start to feel more like a hassle than a cash reward when you're already feeling overburdened trying to do everything that needs to be done in a day. 519 When you're already working on a lot of projects and feel like you've done too much, saying "no" might be a tempting way to avoid further work. The way they think sets CEOs apart from one another. Most CEOs use "no" as a way to conserve their time, allowing them to focus on more important things. A savvy CEO utilizes "yes" as part of their business strategy to foster new opportunities for their startup to grow. 520 * The majority of prosperous businesspeople typically engage in odd pastimes because it helps them stay 515 https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-perfect-work-ethicfor-an-entrepreneur, 516 https://believe.evancarmichael.com/homepage, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 517 https://www.marsdd.com/our-story/entrepreneurshipskill-can-taught-can-learned/, 518 https://www.entrepreneur.com/living/the-6-questions-iask-before-i-say-yes-to-anything/309695, 519 https://startupnation.com/grow-your-business/attitudesmart-ceos-say-yes/, 520 https://lassonde.utah.edu/yes-entrepreneurship-can-belearned-heres-how/, 521 https://www.wired.com/2008/02/marissa-mayer-r/, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 focused. Marissa Mayer, a businesswoman and former Yahoo CEO, claims that her hobbies improve her performance at work. They help me create fresh, original perspectives. Mayer's obsession with cake is the one thing that could worry us. The San Francisco Mag reports that Mayer "made a spreadsheet for the ingredients, tested the recipes before writing her own, and bought a variety of cookbooks to study the cupcake recipes in each." 521 Being an extrovert is beneficial when you are an entrepreneur. Getting other people enthused about our ideas is a significant part of our work; therefore, it's assumed that extroverts will excel at that aspect of the job. Both extroverts and introverts can succeed in entrepreneurship, which often requires a range of tasks, from networking to intense product development. Building a team that complements your abilities and utilizing your talents are ultimately the keys to success. 522 Some business owners, such as Sundar Pichai, the CEO of Google, prefer to spend their weekends with their families. Some business owners, on the other hand, like to read books in their free time. It's not just about relaxing in their leisure time; it's also about what they want to do or activities that will help them relax and quiet down. So, the bottom line is that hobbies will make people better at work, and they will also aid in strengthening their decision-making skills in no time. Business owners need to know what they're doing. This entails having a thorough understanding of their company, industry, and business. They need to value learning and improvement as entrepreneurs for the rest of their lives, and then they need to take action. They need to be sure of what they know and how they can use it in their market and specialty. They also need to be confident. They need to be organized, which will help them feel better about themselves. This means they need to have a clear vision, plan, and goals for their firm and keep track of all the details. 523 * To start, expand, and ensure the survival of a business, entrepreneurs must practice good communication both inside their company and with outside partners and investors. An entrepreneur requires a communication system that connects their company's employees as well as the company to other businesses and customers. Perhaps the most crucial action of a transformative leader is sharing a vision with their followers. 524 Intense visions inspire dedication and give workers a feeling of direction. Both written and face-to-face communication are required to convey the vision, according to Kouzes and Posner, as well as Baum et al. 525 522 https://www.quora.com/Do-I-need-to-be-an-extrovert-inorder-to-be-a-good-entrepreneur, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 523 https://beatechelette.com/in-business-is-it-better-to-bean-extrovert-or-introvert/, 524 Hackman, M.Z.; Johnson, C.E.

158 Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 Entrepreneurial leaders must speak and listen to articulate their vision to others. 526 Entrepreneurs need to be able to talk to people well. When explaining a project, giving an elevator pitch, delivering a presentation, conducting training, or interacting with individuals in person, effective communication skills are crucial. For every minute he spoke, Winston Churchill practiced for an hour. It's not enough to just put together the "perfect words" and memorize them like a robot. It's all about how well and confidently you get your point over in real time. You don't have to learn how to talk quickly to convey your point clearly and concisely. But you do need to understand how to get to the point swiftly. In fact, body language makes up 93% of all communication between people. The number that people often mention isn't a rule, and it's not even quoted correctly. Two studies indicate that 93% of communication is non-verbal, and that body language accounts for 55% of all communication. 527 Again, these are two different things. 528 Hearing is a passive ability. Listening shouldn’t be passive. It should be active. * Since it allows leaders to persuade possible partners, investors, and employees of a venture's viability, communication is essential to the role of entrepreneurship. Effective communication with shareholders is essential for entrepreneurs. Information shared between two or more parties for an organization's purposes, functions, objectives, or business operations is referred to as business communication. Business communication is an organizational aspect and can take two forms: peer-to-peer and internal, or employee-to-superior. Business-to-business and business-to-consumer communication are examples of external communication that takes place outside of a company. 529 According to the Communication Accommodation Theory, people tend to modify or adjust their speech patterns when communicating with others. 530 The Face Negotiation Theory explains how individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds approach conflict resolution to maintain their dignity. 531 When creating a new product or service, entrepreneurs might employ Hugh Rank's "intensify and downplay" messaging technique. Rank contends that in order to convince others to support their business, entrepreneurs must be able to emphasize the benefits of their new product or service while downplaying its drawbacks. 532 Effective communication is essential for team performance. Several detrimental effects, such as project delays or failures, increased stress levels, and lost revenue, can result from poor communication.

Success can be greatly impacted by your ability to communicate effectively and convincingly, whether you are speaking with clients, consumers, or coworkers. 533 * Typically, entrepreneurs build teams. By setting a good example and cultivating a great work atmosphere, they inspire and drive their staff. They should be able to delegate in order to build a productive team. Team members typically feel more engaged and appreciated when they are given important tasks and responsibilities. Including team members in the decision-making process might inspire creative solutions that they might not have thought of on their own. 534 However, one of the top mistakes new and experienced managers make is focusing too much on minute details and micromanaging employees. Research shows that micromanagement is one of the main reasons employees resign, leading to increased dissatisfaction, including low morale, high turnover, and decreased productivity. 535 To avoid micromanaging, they usually allow themselves to let go of perfectionism and empower their employees. One of today's greatest businesswomen, Oprah Winfrey, views entrepreneurship as rooted in the conviction that success encompasses not only monetary gain but also personal fulfillment, helping others, and positively impacting the world. * Create a clear vision, make a plan, and modify your tactics as necessary. Entrepreneurs typically foster a culture of trust both inside and outside of their firms and possess an innate strategic vision. They are able to evaluate risks, spot opportunities, and create long-term plans for their company. They possess the capacity to think creatively, generate original concepts, and solve problems in innovative ways. As entrepreneurs, it's crucial to have self-confidence, as it enables us to make informed choices and confidently present new ideas. Their business can prosper and their entrepreneurial talents can develop if they are able to make quick and wise decisions. When making judgments, they should follow their gut instinct while also taking the necessary steps to assess and identify potential dangers. Coworkers may feel more empowered to succeed for both the firm and themselves when they trust one another and feel at ease in their workplace. To succeed as a manager, leader, or employee, one must learn how to establish trust in the workplace. Building trust is when someone makes another person feel at ease enough to rely on 101571. doi:10.1016/j.langsci.2023.101571, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 531 Littlejohn, S., Foss, K. (2011).

They are inspired to collaborate with them because they have faith in their skills and goals. 536 Keeping their promises is a straightforward way to earn their trust. Be honest with your teammate if you can't accomplish anything because you don't have the time or the skills. This way, you won't promise too much and not deliver. Another strategy to earn trust is to communicate with coworkers in person or via email in a clear and direct manner. Follow the rules of proper email etiquette to make sure their correspondence is professional, clear, and friendly. * According to research by American social psychologist Leon Festinger, a person's self-confidence may only increase or decrease if they are able to evaluate themselves against people who are similar to them in a competitive setting. 537 Social psychologists have found that self-confidence is correlated with other psychological variables, including saving money, influencing others, and being a responsible student. 538 Selfconfidence affects interest, enthusiasm, and self-regulation. Self-confidence is crucial for achieving goals and enhancing performance. 539 Marketing researchers have found that the general self-confidence of a person is negatively correlated with their level of anxiety. Selfconfidence enhances a person's overall well-being and motivation, which in turn often improves performance. 540 In 1943, American psychologist Abraham Maslow argued in his paper "A Theory of Human Motivation" that an individual is only motivated to acquire self-confidence where one component of "esteem" after achieving what they need for physiological survival, safety, and love and belonging. 541 It also increases one's ability to deal with stress and mental health. 542 The more self-confident an individual is, the less likely they are to conform to the judgments of others. 543 Dominic D. P. Johnson and James H. Fowler write that "overconfidence maximizes individual fitness and populations tend to become overconfident, as long as benefits from contested resources are sufficiently large compared with the cost of competition". 544 People prefer 536 https://www.indeed.com/career-advice/careerdevelopment/building-trust, accessed on 13 Jul 2025 537 Festinger, L.

Building solid relationships and paying attention to their clients' requirements should be the top priorities for entrepreneurs. This strategy is essential for company success because it increases client loyalty, provides insightful information for new product development, and ultimately drives company growth. Through active listening, business owners may fully comprehend the wants, needs, and problems of their clients. This information is crucial for customizing goods, services, and advertising strategies to better meet their needs. 546 Customers are more likely to form a favorable relationship with a firm when they feel heard and understood. Increased loyalty, recurring business, and favorable word-of-mouth recommendations can result from this. Entrepreneurs can enhance the customer experience by paying attention to consumer feedback and addressing their concerns. Increased client satisfaction, loyalty, and advocacy may result from this. 547 However, for entrepreneurs, cultivating solid client relationships is not merely a "nice-to-have"—it is essential to creating a profitable and long-lasting company. Customers' implied meanings are equally as important as their explicit statements. You can gain a deeper understanding of your customer interactions and the sentiments, effort, emotions, and intents that drive customer relations by utilizing strategies like natural language understanding (NLU). In-depth analysis of customer behavior can help you forecast future behavior more readily and understand not only what they're doing, but why. 548 Listening to customers is a mentality as much as a tactic. Entrepreneurs that adopt this mentality foster a listening culture in their companies. In a market that is ever-evolving, this culture ensures the company remains relevant, fosters innovation, and cultivates trust. Business leaders can realize the full potential of 543 Deutsch, Morton; Gerard, Harold B. (1955). "A study of normative and informational social influences upon individual judgment".

To make informed judgments and ensure the long-term viability of their endeavors, entrepreneurs must have a solid understanding of their company's finances. Effective planning, risk management, and strategic growth are made possible by having a solid understanding of budgeting, cash flow, and financial reporting. 551 To obtain important insights and ensure regulatory compliance, entrepreneurs should not be afraid to consult financial professionals, such as accountants or financial consultants. Entrepreneurs can create a solid foundation for their companies and ensure they can withstand setbacks and adapt to shifting market conditions by practicing sound financial management. Entrepreneurs can track the performance of their businesses, pinpoint areas for development, and make data-driven decisions with the help of accurate financial reporting and analysis. 552 A solid financial base enables business owners to recognize and mitigate potential risks, such as market fluctuations, recessions, or unexpected expenses. Entrepreneurs can make informed decisions regarding investments, resource allocation, and business plans when they have a solid understanding of financial concepts. 553 Entrepreneurs can maximize resource utilization, plan their spending, and ensure they have sufficient funds to meet operational demands and capitalize on opportunities by being proficient in budgeting and cash flow management. Financially literate entrepreneurs are better equipped to make informed decisions. They are able to weigh the benefits and dangers and know when to alter their strategies. This ability enables them to reduce debt and improve business operations. 554 Entrepreneurs can make good decisions about investments, resource allocation, and business plans if they have a good grasp of financial fundamentals. Entrepreneurs can address the challenges of running a business, capitalize on opportunities, and establish a solid foundation for long-term success by prioritizing financial literacy and actively managing their firm's finances. 549 https://online.stmarys.ac.uk/blogs/why-financial-literacyis-essential-for-entrepreneurs/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 550 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/why-business-ownersshould-listen-customers-rishu-chaitanya-bktpf/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 551 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/financial-managemententrepreneurs-key-strategies-success-lone-mosito-o2qff/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 552 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/financial-managementtips-entrepreneurs-business-owners-776af/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 553 https://online.york.ac.uk/resources/how-to-managepersonal-and-business-finances-as-an-entrepreneur/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 * Entrepreneurs have a positive outlook and persevere through obstacles and failures. A positive outlook and perseverance are essential for overcoming the numerous difficulties and disappointments that entrepreneurs frequently encounter and achieving success. These attributes enable them to stay focused, adapt to change, and persevere in the face of adversity. The steadfast dedication to one's objectives in the face of difficulty is determination. It strengthens the will to overcome obstacles, endure hardships, and maintain focus on long-term goals. Determined businesspeople are more likely to take measured chances, grow from mistakes, and eventually realize their full potential. Positive thinking enables business owners to view difficulties as learning opportunities rather than insurmountable roadblocks. Even in the face of disappointments, it keeps people resilient, driven, and hopeful. Additionally, a positive outlook encourages innovation and problem-solving, which helps business owners generate novel ideas. 555 Entrepreneurs should also embrace continuous learning and adapt their strategies in response to market feedback and evolving circumstances. This adaptability, combined with a positive attitude and determination, enables them to overcome challenges and achieve sustainable success. Building a strong support system of mentors, peers, and advisors is also crucial for entrepreneurs. 556 These individuals can offer guidance, encouragement, and practical advice, helping entrepreneurs navigate challenges and stay on track. 557 Entrepreneurs must cease obsessing over the opinions of others. They must put all of their attention on resolving the issue at hand. If they divert their attention from overcoming the obstacles that lie ahead, they will get preoccupied with what other people think. Every business owner encounters challenges. There aren't many efficient ways to get beyond them. Entrepreneurs must clearly specify the challenge they are facing. To create a focused remedy, they must understand the underlying cause. Big issues may be debilitating. To make them less intimidating, they must divide them into more manageable, smaller jobs. They ask for assistance without hesitation. Speak with classmates, mentors, or advisors who have faced similar challenges. Entrepreneurs must be ready to modify their strategies as needed. When things don't go as planned, their flexibility enables them to adjust their course and come up with innovative ideas. Obstacles may appear more significant than they actually are, if necessary, tasks are put off or delayed. Entrepreneurs should start addressing the issue immediately. 558 554 https://foundersmag.com/financial-management/#, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 555 https://www.quora.com/How-do-you-move-forwardwith-subjects-that-didn-t-meet-your-expectations-likeEnglish-in-your-case, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 556 https://www.robinwaite.com/blog/building-resilience-asan-entrepreneur-how-to-overcome-setbacks-and-staymotivated, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 557 https://www.linkedin.com/advice/3/youre-facingsetbacks-your-entrepreneurial-journey-ag6lc, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 558 https://economicinsider.com/overcoming-challenges-andsetbacks-strategies-for-entrepreneurs/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025
Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 161 * The capacity to recover from setbacks and keep a positive attitude is resilience. Resilient entrepreneurs are able to adjust to shifting conditions, learn from their mistakes, and persevere when things become tough. Since resilience enables entrepreneurs to use these traits to overcome obstacles, it is intimately related to both optimism and tenacity. 559 Entrepreneurs are the source of their resiliency. People supporting them won't be the source of it because they are frequently unsupportive. They would be shocked at how many people turn out when they're doing well and how quiet they are when they're having trouble. 560 They may effectively manage the highs and lows of business by overcoming challenges, growing resilient, learning from mistakes, and maintaining motivation. It is essential to remember that every obstacle presents an opportunity for growth and development. 561 They must remain optimistic, keep moving forward, and never give up on their goals. Entrepreneurs must be adaptable, resilient, and optimistic in order to confront and manage difficulties and find solutions. One effective strategy that can help them shift their attention from the negative to the positive is gratitude. 562 Unexpected events often lead to challenges, and it's easy to become entangled in negative emotions like irritation, anger, or despair. However, people might expose themselves to new possibilities by deliberately choosing to view the circumstance from a different perspective. 563 For instance, they can consider a failed project as a worthwhile learning opportunity that will guide future efforts rather than as a complete failure. Any path will inevitably include failure, particularly in the commercial realm, as Thomas Edison discovered. 564 Several setbacks accompanied his entrepreneurial success. He famously declared, "I have not failed," indicating that he viewed these setbacks as learning opportunities. I just discovered 10,000 ineffective methods. He eventually produced ground-breaking inventions like the light bulb and the phonograph as a result of his perseverance in the face of adversity and his capacity to learn from mistakes. 565 However, individuals have the option to accept failure 559 https://wadhwanifoundation.org/staying-motivatedduring-tough-times-6-strategies-for-entrepreneurs/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 560 https://www.quora.com/How-can-I-overcome-challengesand-setbacks-in-my-entrepreneurial-journey, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 561 https://fastercapital.com/topics/overcoming-challengeswith-a-positive-mindset.html, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 562 https://www.womenpreneur-digital.com/blog/building-aresilient-mindset-nurturing-strength-in-entrepreneurs86.html, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 563 https://fastercapital.com/content/Rehabilitation-CenterTestimonial--Startups-and-Rehabilitation-Centers--Storiesof-Resilience-and-Recovery.html, 564 https://vizologi.com/right-attitude-for-entrepreneurialsuccess/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 565 https://themeaningmovement.com/edisons-secret-tosuccess-and-how-you-can-overcome-the-fear-of-failure/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 566 https://fastercapital.com/topics/overcoming-challengeswith-a-positive-attitude.html/1, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 567 https://wadhwanifoundation.org/staying-motivatedduring-tough-times-6-strategies-for-entrepreneurs/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 as a necessary step on the path to success rather than allowing it to define them. Business challenges can frequently be emotionally and mentally taxing. Prioritizing self-care during these times is crucial for maintaining a positive outlook. 566 Stress levels can be lowered and mental and emotional energy can be restored by engaging in well-being-promoting activities such as exercise, meditation, nature walks, or hobbies. 567 People who have a good attitude are more likely to meet others who are eager to support them through tough circumstances. 568 They can learn a lot from mentors, coworkers, or even online communities by building positive relationships and asking for help. This can help them see things in a new way and find possible answers. 569 8. Development of New Entrepreneurs for Success in their Venture/Business in 21st Century Entrepreneurship embodies an individual’s willingness to take risks, encompassing various costs— from time investment to the challenge of devising effective and efficient business strategies. Such strategies must navigate social, intuitive, and financial risks, offering personal fulfillment alongside potential financial rewards if the newly implemented approach proves successful. 570 Both innovation and entrepreneurship do not merely involve having a brilliant idea in one’s mind; they require dedicated effort to transform that idea into action. The idea must be thoroughly discussed and its feasibility carefully evaluated. In this process, teamwork plays a crucial role, as it helps assess the idea’s validity more effectively and refine it into a practical form, minimizing potential financial losses. 571 During the discussion of an idea, various weaknesses in its structure often emerge, which must be addressed and eliminated to prevent potential losses. 572 Accomplishing this requires a specific mindset and behavior, which defines an individual as a risk-taker—someone with the courage to navigate and influence social and economic structures to create an environment where their ideas can be transformed into action. 573 Additionally, he must be fully aware of all potential risks and possess the 568 https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-03171064-3_10, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 569 https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/resilience-determinationentrepreneurs-dr-pravin-dattatraya-badhe/, accessed on 20 Jul 2025 570 Beatty, Jack (1998).

By creating enterprises, entrepreneurs generate employment opportunities and contributing to poverty alleviation as income levels rise. China is a good example of entrepreneurship driving national development. Despite initial challenges in meeting international standards, Chinese firms have increasingly aligned with global norms, enhancing their credibility and access to international markets. The government has supported this growth through policies, infrastructure development, and financial incentives, fostering an environment conducive to innovation and expansion. Figure 10: Entrepreneurs contribution to sustainability global development in 21st century. 628 In 21st century, for success new entrepreneurs need to prioritize understanding and serving their customers over focusing on investors. They need to be open to new opportunities and willing to pivot their approach when and where needed. Today, thinking negatively can be detrimental for an entrepreneur; not because problems should be ignored, but because the focus should be on finding solutions rather than fixating on obstacles. It is easy to look at someone like Richard Branson and assume success came effortlessly. In reality, even the most accomplished entrepreneurs face setbacks and failures. Regardless of the company he starts or the profits he earns, there will be moments when things appear bleak. Optimism is the key to overcoming these challenges. Successful entrepreneurs are recognized for their unwavering optimism, which guides them through both lows and highs. 629 This does not mean they are happy all the time, but they refuse to let circumstances dictate their long-term goals. Great leaders also understand that mental exhaustion and overwork are a recipe for disaster. No matter how skilled he is, without proper wellness, he cannot execute effectively on his capabilities. Allocating time for self-care yields significant returns, and the same principle applies to employees. Encouraging his team to rest when needed ensures sustained performance and a healthier work environment. 630 They will reward him with a positive mindset and a stronger work ethic. Risk-takers often excel as business leaders, but it is essential to have a clear approach and a backup plan in case things go wrong. By strategizing carefully and setting measura628 https://bamboi.eu/blogs/blog/entrepreneurship-with-apurpose-contributing-to-the-sustainable-development-goals, accessed on 29 Sep 2025 629 Swider, B.

Test his product or service with a trusted group, review market research to ensure sufficient demand, and stay informed on industry trends. 631 These steps help him take calculated risks while pursuing new opportunities. 8. Conclusion New entrepreneurs need to view mistakes as opportunities to learn and grow, rather than as endpoints. They have passion for their work and their vision for a better world be their primary motivation, not just financial gain. In 21st century successful entrepreneurs rely on honesty, capability, judgment, and skill. Lord Alan Sugar states, “There is no such thing as entrepreneurial juice that he can buy from Boots. He is either born with entrepreneurial gifts or not.” Similarly, Gary Vaynerchuk believes that “hustle and drive to succeed are innate qualities; they cannot be taught.” In contrast, thinkers like Robert Greene, Tom Bilyeu, Duncan Bannatyne, and Peter Drucker argue that successful entrepreneurs can be made through learning and experience. However, a few highly successful entrepreneurs seem to fall somewhere in between these perspectives. 632 When asked whether entrepreneurs are born or made, Richard Branson stated that everyone is born with entrepreneurial potential, but only a few takes action to realize it. Theo Paphitis, from the BBC business program Dragons’ Den, describes different “levels of entrepreneurs,” suggesting that one’s level depends on how far they aim to go. He implies that some entrepreneurs are born while others are made. Patrick Bet-David adds another perspective, noting that anyone can be 631 Wayne, S. J., Sun, J., Kluemper, D. H., Cheung, G.

Norwegian Journal of development of the International Science No 167/2025 169 a “meh” entrepreneur—neither exceptional nor terrible, just average. However, he argues that to become truly outstanding, an entrepreneur must have been born with that innate drive. 633 By understanding entrepreneurship and the key characteristics of successful entrepreneurs, aspiring entrepreneurs can develop the skills and mindset needed to improve their chances of success. While some argue that entrepreneurial talent is innate, research indicates that many essential traits can be learned and refined. 634 By grasping the core components of entrepreneurial success, individuals can pursue personal growth and development, cultivating the qualities and characteristics necessary to become a successful entrepreneur. In 21st century entrepreneurship is one of the most critical drivers of a country’s economic growth and development. According to Harbison, entrepreneurs are the primary catalysts of innovation. While entrepreneurship carries significant risks—such as startup failures, funding shortages, poor sales decisions, or insufficient market demand—it remains a key mechanism for progress and growth. This inherent risk places entrepreneurship beyond the comfort zone, requiring resilience and strategic thinking. Economic growth, measured as a sustained increase in real income, is greatly supported by entrepreneurial communities, which identify and establish profitable ventures that raise per capita income and improve the overall quality of life. By creating enterprises, entrepreneurs generate employment opportunities both directly and indirectly, contributing to poverty alleviation as income levels rise. A clear example of entrepreneurship driving national development can be seen in China. Despite initial challenges in meeting international standards, Chinese firms have increasingly aligned with global norms, enhancing their credibility and access to international markets. The government has supported this growth through policies, infrastructure development, and financial incentives, fostering an environment conducive to innovation and expansion. The combination of entrepreneurial leadership, strategic market expansion, technological innovation, and government support has propelled Chinese firms to become major global players. This model of entrepreneurial development offers a valuable blueprint for other developing countries, such as Bangladesh, Pakistan, and India, to stimulate economic growth and create sustainable business ecosystems. In 21st century for success new entrepreneurs need to work reliably and consistently on creating value and developing innovative solutions. They make clear agreements with co-founders and others as well as understand that the right partner can be more important than anything else. Again, extensive study and personal investigation have been undertaken, examining the perspectives of highly successful global entrepreneurs on the nature versus nurture controversy. Furthermore, this debate has been examined and substantiated through pragmatic research, delving into the principal attributes 633 https://timespro.com/blog/what-are-the-top-characteristics-of-an-entrepreneur, accessed on 03 Oct 2025 634 Wheatley, T., Thornton, M. A., Stolk, A., & Chang, L. J. (2024). The emerging science of interacting minds. that define prosperous entrepreneurs in this modern era. Deeper exploration into this subject revealed compelling studies investigating the innate or cultivated origins of entrepreneurial achievement. One finding indicates that such individuals are, in fact, born. A more intriguing revelation, however, is that successful entrepreneurs are also made. A particularly concerning truth is that the conventional education system frequently operates in opposition to entrepreneurial values. From a young age, instruction emphasizes high performance and the acquisition of accolades. Risk-taking, perseverance, bravery, and nonconformity are fundamental to entrepreneurship, as achievement is unattainable without venture and daring. Nonetheless, youth raised in entrepreneurial environments exhibit a significantly higher propensity to become entrepreneurs themselves, primarily because they are not conditioned to avoid risk. Consequently, those born into such circumstances are typically successful. They benefit from quality guidance, instruction, and a supportive environment, and their inherent comprehension of business operations leads to their predictable success and economic development. Successful entrepreneurs consistently uphold high ethical standards in all business dealings and workplace interactions. They possess the confidence to make difficult decisions and follow through, exercising sound judgment even under pressure. Typically, successful entrepreneurs combine intrinsic traits with developed skills, including passion, creativity, adaptability, resilience, and strong leadership. They demonstrate a willingness to take calculated risks, persist in the face of challenges, and maintain a strong work ethic. Effective communication, networking abilities, and a customerfocused mindset are essential, as entrepreneurs understand and prioritize the needs of their customers. They manage finances efficiently, interpret financial statements clearly, and build professional relationships to create opportunities and support growth. By taking calculated risks and tackling challenges, entrepreneurs show strong commitment to their goals. Innovation is another hallmark of success, with creative ideas and solutions allowing them to stand out in competitive markets. In addition to risk management and strategic decision-making, entrepreneurship requires comfort with failure, the ability to prioritize tasks, and efficient time management. In conclusion, the majority of research indicates that accomplished entrepreneurs are developed. The pinnacle of entrepreneurial success is most often reached by those who experience failure and persist. These individuals actively pursue mentors, acquire training, learn from their environment, and possess the resolve to persevere, engaging directly with challenges and risks. As global development in the era of technological advancement, so successful entrepreneurs are the assets for national and global economic development and growth.
