Do CEO\'s Overcompensate for Their Strengths?
As I sit in the Seattle airport waiting to board my delayed flight to Anchorage (Dear Alaska Airlines: Since it’s a “mechanical delay”, please feel free to delay it as long as you want until you are absolutely sure the airplane works), I was pondering a conversation I had at the very end of Gnomedex with an entrepreneur that I’d met for the first time.
This Is What A Revenue Generating Company Embodies
...When it comes to the success of an organization, management is always the first variable of the equation. A company could either have managers or it could have leaders. The former sends a company to bankruptcy court; the latter is painstakingly hard to recruit and cultivate, but life is hard and making money is just as so....
Managing a Growing Business
Once a start-up business is up and running, how does an entrepreneur manage it? Often the entrepreneurial spirit of self-confidence, creativity, focus and control leads to financial and personal grief as the enterprise grows. A hands-on entrepreneur who gives birth to the business loves perfecting every detail. But after the start-up, continued growth requires a shift in management style. Those who fail to adjust to a growing business can be the cause of the problems rather than the solution. In this article, we will look at the stages through which entrepreneurial companies move and consider how managers should out their planning, organizing, leading and controlling.

Lesson #3: The Accidental Entrepreneur is No Accidental Success
“There is such a thing as a natural-born entrepreneur, for whom the entrepreneurial urge drives everything, and who can make a business out of almost anything,” says Moore. “But the accidental entrepreneur like me has to fall into the opportunity or be pushed into it. Then the entrepreneurial spirit eventually catches on.” Moore and Noyce are evidence of the fact that entrepreneurs do not necessarily have to be born as such. Through a process of discovering their passion and being unhappy with their prospects at other companies, Moore and Noyce decided to start up their own business. It was their willingness to admit their shortcomings and seek out the help of others that the two accidental entrepreneurs in fact became two of the most successful entrepreneurs in modern time.

7.0 Entrepreneurship and Small Business Success: Entrepreneurship and Small Business Enterprise Growth in Uganda
Common day definition of entrepreneurs tend to equate it with those who start small business (Drucker, 1993). This is a fallacy. Entrepreneurship is a dynamic process of creating wealth whether in small organisations or large organisations.

The article goes on to identify five trends that develop when Private equity gets involved. The purpose of this article is to highlight the premises upon which these five trends are based. Understanding this premise will lend valuable insight and strategic fodder for Start-up or Entrepreneurial companies as well as seasoned businesses.
