en·tre·pre·neur — a person who creates
and builds an economic or social enterprise
with considerable initiative and a
willingness to accept full responsibility
for the outcome.
Entrepreneurs are successful because
their passion for an outcome leads them
to organize available resources in new
and more valuable ways. Successful entrepreneurs
act and think more like passionate
experts than gamblers.
Social entrepreneurs recognize a social
problem and use entrepreneurial principles
to organize, create, and manage a
venture to make social change. Business
entrepreneurs typically measure performance
in profit and growth, whereas
social entrepreneurs assess success in
terms of the impact they have on society.
