Ep24 - WE NEED BETTER BUSINESS TRAINING - a podcast by AJK
from 2020-09-30T09:00
Business as Unusual is a Podcast that inspires clarity and confidence by exploring innovation, creativity and entrepreneurship during a global pandemic.
We don’t need more business people - we need more Entrepreneurs. The two are very different. Business people exchange a product or service for money. Entrepreneurs bring new ideas to the world and business is just one vehicle for them to do that. I tried so hard to avoid making this a rant but I just couldn’t contain my frustration at the gross inadequacy of basic business training programs.
The organisations running these programs should be prosecuted for negligence because they are setting up new business owners for failure. This is one of the reasons why we have such a high failure rate of small businesses - they are completely unprepared for what it actually takes to survive in business. All business owners globally are suffering from the effects of a drastically altered economy, yet all Entrepreneurs seem to be navigating the situation with an entirely different perspective. Think there’s something in there that every new business should learn. No exceptions. This Business as Unusual environment is an incredible opportunity to reimagine the way things COULD be done. Sad to see the status quo raise it’s ugly face again. Okay end of rant - SorryNotSorry 🤓
