The (Serial) Entrepreneur
This is seen as someone who is committed to starting businesses and companies from scratch and making them a success.
The Independent Self-Employed Business Person
This is seen as a person who directs and manages an SME. This could be the owner of a family-driven business or a business person who buys and takes over an existing business. This can also be an entrepreneur who has started a business through innovation and remains to direct and manage that company without selling or leaving to start a new venture.
The second in command in an SME
This extremely important entrepreneur is the most common non-executive entrepreneur in small businesses. An entrepreneur, as the number 2 in an SME is a vital position as it enables the company to develop in an innovative and goal-orientated manner, with a careful balance of risks and opportunities. This kind of Intrapreneur is someone who has had experience with business or project start-ups and project management and has now reached the moment where the experience and knowledge gained can be used to support another entrepreneur.
The Corporate ‘Intrapreneur’
This entrepreneurial role is becoming increasingly important within companies and organizations, as well as non-profit and governmental organizations, as they are forced to change, develop and innovate in the modern economy and business environment. Corporations require entrepreneurial business leaders who, alongside their leadership qualities, have a broad range of business skills and competencies and business administration knowledge.
