Question No: 7

What is the process by which individuals pursue opportunities without regard to resources
they currently control?
► Startup management
► Entrepreneurship
► Financial analysis
► Feasibility planning
Reference & Explanation:
Entrepreneurship is a process by which individuals - either on their own or inside organizations -
pursue opportunities without regard to the resources they currently control. (Stevenson & Jarillo,
1990, p. 23)
(http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_hb6648/is_n3_v19/ai_n28666393/)
Stevenson's definition would be as follows: The continuous process by which individuals pursue
opportunities without regard to resources they currently control, with the intent of increasing
value and/or advantage. I have made the underlined additions because entrepreneurship should
never be considered a single event. It is a continuing, non–ending process in search of increasing
value and ever increasing advantage.

In the administrative domain, the commitment of resources is for which of the following?

► Periodic intervals

Reference:
Commitment of Resources

An entrepreneur is used to having resources at periodic intervals that are often based on certain tasks or
objects being reached. These resources, often acquired from others, are usually difficult to obtain, forcing
the entrepreneur to maximize any resources used. This multistage commitment allows the resource
providers (such as venture capitalist or private investors) to have as small an exposure as possible at each
stage of business development and to constantly monitor and track record being established. Even though
the funding may also be implemented in stages in the administrative domain, the commitment of the
recourses is for the total amount needed. Administratively oriented individuals respond to the resources
of the rewards offered and receive personal rewards by effectively administering the resources under this
control.
