Lesson Information 1
Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies
There have been many studies to characterize “the entrepreneurial personality”; although there is no isolated set of traits
that guarantee success, there were identified behaviors found common to most successful entrepreneurs. There is a well-known
research on human behavior done by McClelland and McBer which identified 10 behavioral patterns organized into three
general clusters: the achievement, planning, and power clusters (SERDEF, 2007; 1998). It was found out that these behaviors were
also typical entrepreneurial behaviors. The entrepreneurial qualities, more known as the Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies
(PECs) are as follows:
Planning Cluster
• Goal setting - Entrepreneur knows how to set specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound (SMART) goals. It
is easy for them to divide large goals into short-term goals.
• Information seeking - Entrepreneur update themselves with new information about her customers, the market, suppliers,
and competitors. This is rooted to their innate sense of curiosity.
• Systematic planning and monitoring - Entrepreneurs develop and use logical, step-by-step plans to reach their goals. They
monitor progress towards goals and to alter strategies when necessary.
Power Cluster
• Persuasion and networking - Entrepreneurs know how to use the right strategies to influence or persuade other people.
They have naturally established a network of people who they can turn to in order to achieve their objectives.
• Self-confidence - Entrepreneurs have a strong belief in themselves and their own abilities. They have self-awareness and
belief in their own ability to complete a difficult task or meet a challenge.
Business Environment and Market The study of the business environment
in a particular location has far-reaching and long-term effects on a small or
micro enterprise’s viability. In fact, business ideas and opportunities are partly
shaped or determined by the business location. Unless it is possible to migrate
to more favourable locations, the ideas and opportunities for business will
oftentimes be delimited to the surrounding areas. The business environment
consists of both the tangible and intangible factors that affect either the
external or internal business operations. They may include the land area
available for economic zones, the physical layout and barriers such as rivers,
parks or lakes, and building obstructions as well as the transportation
network; all of which are considered tangible factors. They also include the
demography of clients and suppliers, the competitors in the locale/area and
the available technology for production. The intangible factors, on the other
hand, include the sub-culture, industry trends, economic and government
activity or the political situations in the area.
