From Vision to Visionary
Being an entrepreneur today in any part of the world is synonymous with a pioneering spirit, the ability to take risks and being resilient in the face of all obstacles.

Much like the talent we associate with artists and auteurs that lead to creation of immortal art. Do we take it then that becoming an entrepreneur is a matter of chance? That one in a million is imbued with certain mysterious talents that enable the individual to venture and succeed in enterprise. That there is an esoteric element to becoming a successful business leader that has less to do with numbers and outcomes and unfolds more as a matter of chance that genetic makeup determines. Or do we believe in the gurus who tell us there are there certain traits and competencies that an individual can hone over a period of time to venture into business and make a success of it.
