Entrepreneurship developing countries (164 résultats)

Paperback. Etat : Good. A Harvard Business School professor and international entrepreneur explains the crucial ingredient for success in the developing world. Entrepreneurial ventures often fail in the developing world because of the lack of something taken for granted in the developed world: trust. Over centuries the developed world has built up customs and institutions like enforceable contracts, an impartial legal system, credible regulatory bodies, even unofficial but respected sources of information like Yelp or Consumer Reports that have created a high level of what scholar and entrepreneur Tarun Khanna calls "ambient trust." If a product is FDA-approved we feel confident it's safe. If someone makes an untrue claim or breaks an agreement we can sue. Police don't demand bribes to do their jobs. Certainly there are exceptions, but when brought to light they provoke a scandal, not a shrug. This is not the case in the developing world. But rather than become casualties of mistrust, Khanna shows that smart entrepreneurs adopt the mindset that, like it or not, it's up to them to weave their own independent web of trust-with their employees, partners, clients, and customers-and with society as a whole. This can require innovative approaches in places where the level of societal mistrust is so high that, as in one example Khanna provides, an official certification of quality simply arouses suspicion-and lowers sales! Using vivid examples from Brazil, China, India, Mexico and elsewhere, Khanna shows how entrepreneurs can build on existing customs and practices instead of trying to push against them. He highlights the role new technologies can play (but cautions that these are not panaceas), and explains how entrepreneurs can find dependable partners in national and local governments to create impact at scale. …

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Entrepreneurs in developing countries who assume they will have the same legal, governmental, and institutional protections as their counterparts in the West will fail. To succeed, they need to build trust within the existing structures--and this book shows how it's done.Entrepreneurial ventures often fail in the developing world because of the lack of something taken for granted in the developed world: trust. Over centuries, the developed world has built customs and institutions such as enforceable contracts, an impartial legal system, and credible regulatory bodies--and even unofficial but respected sources of information such as Yelp and Consumer Reports--that have created a high level of what scholar and entrepreneur Tarun Khanna calls 'ambient trust.' This is not the case in the developing world. But Khanna shows that rather than become casualties of mistrust, smart entrepreneurs can adopt the mindset that, like it or not, it's up to them to weave their own independent web of trust--with their employees, their partners, their clients, their customers, and society as a whole. This can be challenging, and it requires innovative approaches in places where the level of societal mistrust is so high that an official certification of quality simply arouses suspicion--and lowers sales! Using vivid examples from Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and elsewhere, Khanna's stories show how entrepreneurs can build on existing customs and practices instead of trying to push against them. He highlights the role new technologies can play (but cautions that these are not panaceas) and explains how entrepreneurs can find dependable partners in national and local governments to create impact at scale.As far back as the 18th century, Adam Smith recognized trust as what Khanna calls 'the hidden engine of economic progress.' 'Frankness and openness conciliate confidence,' Smith wrote. 'We trust the man who seems willing to trust us.' That kind of confidence is critical to entrepreneurial success, but in the developing world entrepreneurs have to establish it through their own efforts. As Khanna puts it, 'The entrepreneur must not just create, she must create the conditions to create.'.…

Taschenbuch. Etat : Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut sg - ungelesenes mängelexemplar, gestempelt, mit leichten lagerspuren - This book is made in an effort to create awareness among people about social entrepreneurship in the context of developing countries like Nepal and mainly among South Asian countries.While Corporate Social Responsibility is slowly introduced and practiced in such countries concepts like social entrepreneurship is lacking way behind.Although geniuses like Mohammad Yunus have worked wonders, poor people continue to suffer as their foremost issue of food and shelter has not been addressed.Social entrepreneurs are making contributions in different areas and are making an impact but a lot more could be done in this field.

Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Master's Thesis from the year 2018 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1.7, University of Paderborn, language: English, abstract: This thesis aims to investigate whether entrepreneurship is an adequate tool for developing countries to propel economic growth and bring forth economic development. The theory of economic growth and development demonstrates that productive entrepreneurship is important to increase productivity and foster structural economic transformation if a sufficient institutional framework is in place. Empirical evidence examining the effect of entrepreneurship on economic growth and development is difficult to establish and yields ambiguous results. It is revealed that developing countries fail to generate growth and development from their high rates of entrepreneurial activity. Only employment creating 'high-growth entrepreneurship' is identified to positively influence economic growth. It is shown that enhancements of institutions and well-targeted policies could help developing countries to generate more growth-oriented entrepreneurship.…
