What are the skills/specifications that makes a person an entrepreneur?

There are10 Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies, which form the basis of the entrepreneur skills / specifications. These competencies has been identified by David McClelland, the Harvard psychologist who helped to launch the “entrepreneurial revolution”.

The10 competencies are as follows:

Entrepreneurship is a path taken by who are ready to take risk. Thus, the most important skill of entrepreneur is handling the risks associated with his/her choices. In addition, he or she should have ability/skills to formulate a good business model based on his/her idea.  

Entrepreneurial-minded people (and the ideas they generate) are extremely valuable to an organization. At our research firm, we recently conducted a multi-variable analysis of a group of serial entrepreneurs and identified five personal skills that clearly make them unique. “Personal skills” — often classified as “soft skills” — develop slowly over time, and we used them to help identify what job-related activities a person has developed. We primarily looked at people who started multiple businesses and experienced both success and failure.

After assessing the subjects on their personal skills and comparing their performance against a control group, we found a certain set of skills were the most predictive of an entrepreneurial mindset. In fact, by examining these five distinct personal skills alone, we were able to predict with over90 percent accuracy people who would become serial entrepreneurs.
