Five common characteristics of entrepreneurs

"Success" means "achievements. After all, it is difficult to define "success" for entrepreneurship 」, but "Achieving" is a little simpler-creating a company with long-term revenue and profit growth, providing many employees with good job opportunities and good care, helping customers create a lot of value, and helping shareholders win good Investment rewards and positive impact on society-these, these are the achievements that many entrepreneurs want to achieve.

If you analyze the entrepreneurs who can achieve the above achievements, they actually have some characteristics in common. David disalvo, a Forbes columnist, recently wrote an article titled "The Five hallmarks of highly respected Achievers" to share his observations. I think it is well organized, so today, let's use his five characteristics to talk about the things that the "Implementers" deserve to learn.

Exactly the toughness of tempered tenacity

This is the most difficult part of entrepreneurship. I think it is also the final key for an accomplished entrepreneur and an entrepreneur who cannot open that door. You must know when to listen, and when to stick to everything-no, which doesn't sound so easy. When 17 life was the "Lunch King", they constantly listened to the feedback from members and added many advanced functions. However, they changed the website to a four-pronged structure, finally, we found that new users could not get started, resulting in a stagnant growth. When huibang technology gave up its "Mini nest" and changed its mind to "come to life", all people told them that it was impossible to succeed, but they decided to give up on their own, finally, we created a super successful game company.

Consistent Words and Deeds consistent commitment

When you observe these "successful people", you will find that they are not only good "Businesses", but also good "services 」. They will not turn you on the bus with a gorgeous goat's head, but they will show you that he is actually selling dog meat. They know that it is not worth long-term reputational losses to cheat others for the sake of short-term benefits, especially in the Internet era where information is developed. What's more, they know that they can do what they promise, and they will have a second chance of cooperation next time.

Pragmatic soulful pragmatism with soul

To be able to achieve certain achievements in this cruel world, pragmatism is of course necessary. However, "pragmatism" is often separated from "reality", and the name of this line is "whether or not 」. Pragmatic entrepreneurs will think about the advantages of each other, and try to achieve a win-win situation within their ability, or even win-win results, even if this represents the sacrifice of some of their own interests. Even if there is no way to make everyone happy, he will still take care of the feelings of the lost party. People are actually emotional animals, and being able to use them more often is the last key to impress them.

Strategic resolution

There will certainly be many unexpected situations in the process of starting a business, and the most amazing people will not only solve these problems quickly, but also take into account the long-term strategic layout. They know where the Organization hopes to arrive after years and five years. Therefore, no matter what the problem is, whether it is worrying or not, every corresponding decision-making cannot deviate from these strategic objectives.

Fulfill responsibility ownership

Successful people understand the difference between "Authorization" and "responsibility". Even if the decision-making power of the execution process is handed over to the partner, it does not mean that responsibility can be shirked when the situation arises. In small companies, the Founder is often the CEO of the company, and the CEO is often the "responsible director" of the company. The CEO is responsible for everything that happens to all companies. Only such a leader can win the respect of shareholders, partners, and colleagues for a long time, and finally lead everyone to the other end of the great channel.

Therefore, based on these five points, you can see that successful people think about it for a long time. They are very systematic, very attentive, and very patient in moving forward to the goal, and then make a pragmatic judgment on when to stick to and when to commit. These points are very simple, but they are actually very difficult to do, And every entrepreneur can always think about how to do better. "Long term" is also the reason why character will affect your destiny, because what you do today will have a great impact on what you get tomorrow. Therefore, if you want to become an accomplished person tomorrow, start from today and study their character carefully!
