"We Are All Born Entrepreneurs (WAABE) explains why so many of us have a deep-rooted desire to be entrepreneurs. WAABE focuses on vivid real-life examples of people who have tapped into their inner entrepreneur and succeeded in the face of adversity. Written by Steve Welch, a successful entrepreneur in the biotech field who sold his first company and started a ground breaking venture capital firm by the age of 29, WAABE demonstrates that there is no single path to achieve one's dreams -- and in fact every path is different"--Back cover.

It's no secret that your genes have a subtle, but powerful impact on your job and career. But did you know that your DNA accounts for one third of the difference between you and your co-workers in many aspects of work life, from job satisfaction to income level? That's the revelation of this fascinating book--one that will change the way you think It's no secret that your genes have a subtle, but powerful impact on your job and career. But did you know that your DNA accounts for one third of the difference between you and your co-workers in many aspects of work life, from job satisfaction to income level? That's the revelation of this fascinating book-one that will change the way you think about the role of genetics in the workplace. Despite extensive evidence highlighting the influence of genetics in the business world, this critical connection has been glossed over by corporate leaders and management gurus. Now, for the first time, author Scott Shane explains why genes matter, and how an understanding of their relationship to behavior is of vital importance to employers, employees, and policy makers. This eye-opening resource begins with an incisive look at the basic function of genes and their effects on organizational behavior, providing a real-world analysis of how genes influence numerous aspects of our professional lives, from the jobs we choose, to how effectively we make decisions and manage people. Born Entrepreneurs, Born Leaders also delves into role that genetics plays in creativity and innovation, and focuses on how genes affect our tendency to start companies. Armed with these insights, you'll not only learn how to leverage your innate skills and personality, but you'll discover how to succeed by acting in ways contrary to your "nature." Packed with scientifically grounded insights, this phenomenal book also examines the potential use of genetic information in creating job assignments and designing incentive and training plans. Ultimately, Born Entrepreneurs, Born Leaders shows how a heightened awareness of your own-and your colleagues'-genetic predispositions can make you a better employee or employer.

Books, magazine articles, and educational programs on entrepreneurship are all based on the idea that anyone can be an entrepreneur—that entrepreneurs are made, not born. Well, maybe not. In a study of 234 CEOs funded by the Kauffman Foundation, James L. Fisher and James V. Koch came up with a surprising conclusion: Some individuals are simply more naturally fitted to become entrepreneurs than others. They are pre-wired. Because of heredity, some people are much more likely to become successful entrepreneurs or pursue entrepreneurial strategies within a corporate setting profitably. By recognizing that, this book will significantly improve corporate selection processes, strengthen entrepreneurship programs, and boost the confidence of aspiring entrepreneurs through invaluable insights. Among other things, Fisher and Koch show that true entrepreneurs not only see the world differently—they act differently. Compared with corporate managers, for example, they are more confident, more decisive, more likely to upset the apple cart, and more energetic. They love to compete but are notable for the partnerships they are able to fashion with friend and foe alike. Such conclusions are remarkable. Why? Because they are based on the only empirical comparison study yet conducted on entrepreneurship. The insights are not based on personal opinion or case studies but on valid and reliable personality indicators. Because the book shows that certain kinds of people will find it much easier to found successful companies than others, it has many practical applications. It will help organizations fit the right people into jobs requiring an entrepreneurial bent. It will challenge corporations to hire entrepreneurial CEOs who will transform businesses rather than maintain the status quo. And it will speak directly to entrepreneurs and those contemplating starting a business, who will learn if they have the right stuff to start and sustain a business. In short, this book provides insights into the entrepreneurial soul that can change the fortunes of individuals and companies for the better.

A book for mindful entrepreneurs.This is not your typical business book. And it is not your typical startup book, either.This book has been written for an aspiring entrepreneur who aims at addressing needs of people in their community to create a positive social impact, while maintaining control over their own physical and mental wellbeing."Entrepreneurs are born imperfect like anyone else: they struggle and cry, flog themselves with doubts, and experience rejection considerably more often than they do praise. Yet, they don't give in to shame. They are survivors who manage to strike a fire in a wasteland. They keep the candle of dream burning in the middle of a shitstorm."The author defines entrepreneurship as a means to delivering value, where all starts and ends with self-improvement."Entrepreneurship doesn't just talk about passion for our various projects. Entrepreneurship doesn't exist merely to proliferate profitable companies. Entrepreneurship doesn't serve the sole purpose of giving people what they want. Entrepreneurship is not only a choice of lifestyle.Entrepreneurship is about making a positive impact while having full control of our experience and living our life with a purpose."In 40 fast-paced chapters, you're going to learn:What it means to be an entrepreneur in the 21st centuryWhat makes you a perfect candidate to become oneWhat to do if you lack the time, resources, experience, or the right skillsWhat makes you indispensable to your community and your potential clientsWhat makes you capable of innovating no matter where in the world you areWhy numbers don't always tell the right storyand also...What makes time the most squandered commodity on EarthHow to eliminate the crippling victim mindsetHow to generate a sufficient amount of energy in your bodyHow to regain control of your self-esteemHow to develop good habits and break bad onesHow to awaken the only force that can move you in the right directionas well as...What is the secret of the ugly lemon tree?"Anyone can become an entrepreneur at any point in their lives, regardless of their background, gender, age, past career choices, financial situation, or level of experience. Entrepreneurship is not about individual achievements and resources one has at their disposal. It's a mindset of brave human individuals who have understood that their time on Earth is absolutely limited and who don't wait for someone else to make their existence worthy and pleasurable.When they see a problem they could solve, they give it a try. When they face an obstacle, they fight it.Entrepreneurs are not superheroes to worship or envy. But it's good to have them around since they always do all that is in their power to move the world a bit forward."

Bob Schlegel grew up on a struggling family farm, and like his entrepreneurial father, he took charge of his destiny by starting his own businesses—often more than one at a time. He and his wife Myrna partnered together in their early endeavors and raised a family of entrepreneurs. Their diverse startups included a chain of fifteen superior nursing and retirement centers, as well as the nation’s leading manufacturer of paving stones and landscaping materials. Though they faced substantial challenges and even near-bankruptcy, they persevered and built highly profitable enterprises with the help of “angels”—both earthly and heavenly. Bob shares his experiences—his failures as well as his successes—with the goal of inspiring others to start their own businesses.
